NYLOR
In 1849, 13 eyewear craftsmen from the Jura French region joined together to form the “Association Fraternelle des Lunetiers Ouvriers“. This cooperative became the “Société des Lunetiers” – the “SL” – at 6, rue Pastourelle in the Marais district of Paris.Driven by the innovation spirit of the 1950s, an engineer from SL developped a new technology for attaching lenses to the frame using an invisible nylon thread. The NYLOR® brand was created to exploit this patent in 1955. This innovation allowed “rimless” glasses to lighten their contours, to gain in elegance and to enter the flourishing world of fashion.
In 2022 NYLOR® reinvents itself around its historical values, with a collection inspired by the iconic vintage frames that made the success of the brand: eyewear like jewelry.
LESCA LUNETIER
In 1964, Joël LESCA created his first collection in a small workshop in the Secrétan neighborhood of Paris's 19th district. His sons, Mathieu and Bertrand, grew up in this same environment, surrounded by glasses, learning the craft alongside their father in the assembly workshops.
