Marine and Romain, two creative opticians, opened their first glasses store in 2012. They create custom mounts, with their own hands, for the beautiful eyes of their customers. Their first collection La Brique et la Violette is the result of these years of passion, encounters and experiences.
Creating and making frames drawn on the thread, between originality, humour and elegance, inspired by people, the characters, the colors of our region, is our daily life.
Our production is done on site, only at the command, without huge stocks destined to be lost. Eliminating waste is the basis for a responsible approach. Made means cut, machined, sanded, polished, riveted, trimmed, adjusted..., and not simply packed. Several tens of steps are necessary to make a frame.
The brick and La Violette means handicrafts. Every day, the members of the team make your mounts in association with their Jurassian subcontractors (Carrier SA). All frames are made of cellulose acetate from MAZUCCHELLi, 100% from their Italian production.
BRICK AND VIOLETTE is an organization with deeply artisanal values. Here, each raw frame is entirely shaped by a single bezel. Far from industrial methods, bringing an object to its final shape, by its know-how, makes its nobility to our profession. An informed eye will find the seal of manual work on our frames. Today, every bezelman discreetly signs the glasses that he makes his initials on the spatula of the left branch. Two letters that will tell you who shaped your frame.
