VANGUARD COLLECTION Good taste is a terrible vice, A somber kind of fetishized boredom. And beauty but a strange flower, A sad tormenting shadow. Surely, you were born a princess, So make sure you don’t die a nun! Find yourself some hot water to jump in. Make like an eel and dance the body electric. Defy expectation — yes, yes. But more importantly, deify reality.

Every component of The Vanguard Collection is custom manufactured, exclusively for Jacques Marie Mage, by our manufacturing partners in Valdobbiadene, Italy- using advanced techniques steeped in a rich heritage that stems from the golden age of eyewear production. Over one hundred hands touch each Jacques Marie Mage spectacle before its arrival at the Los Angeles facility, resulting in an unsurpassed quality-control process. Our tolerance policy includes a final twenty-point measurement test for all fit specifications and detail finishes. Crafted with the highest level of manufacturing prowess and tested with the lowest tolerancestandards possible, Jacques Marie Mage products are designed to last a lifetime. All Jacques Marie Mage spectacles are handcrafted using organic materials, including Mazzucchelli cellulose acetate- a living plant-based material that breaths and absorbs moisture. Therefore, clean your frames regularly to maintain a deep glossy finish. Each model of our spectacles is produced in limited quantities; please treat your pair as a rarity that will one day become collectible.
