DEVAUX in LONE MOUNTAIN — TURQUOISE COLLECTION
Vision
The Jacques Marie Mage Devaux in Lone Mountain revisits a cultured classic first favored by collectors since its release in Summer 2019. Now reimagined through the Turquoise Collection, it draws inspiration from Lone Mountain turquoise, a gemstone known for its rarity and cultural resonance across centuries. As a result, the frame transforms a discreet icon into a refined statement of modern eyewear design.
Moreover, the Devaux reflects midcentury design ideals with a clear nod to early French acetate silhouettes from the 1940s. It combines soft geometry with structured elegance. In addition, it delivers a balanced expression that feels both intellectual and effortless. Therefore, it stands as a frame designed for subtle distinction rather than excess.
Compact in scale yet rich in detail, the Devaux carries a quiet confidence. Consequently, it appeals to collectors who value refinement, proportion, and timeless character.
Crafted to Perfection
Handcrafted in Japan, the Devaux in Lone Mountain showcases meticulous attention to proportion, material, and finish. The polished black 10mm cured cellulose acetate frame provides depth, strength, and lasting comfort.
In addition, signature sterling silver arrowhead front pins are embellished with rare Lone Mountain turquoise, creating a precise focal accent. Exposed Tonopah wirecores reveal refined hairline engraving that highlights the technical craftsmanship inside the temples. Meanwhile, 5-barrel hinges finished in silver palladium ensure smooth function and durability. Star-shaped rivets at the temple tips and inner-temple hallmarks in silver foil complete the frame with sharp detailing.
The custom triple-laminated temples introduce layered contrast, combining clear exteriors, black centers, and turquoise-pattern interiors. As a result, the frame reveals subtle depth and movement with every angle. Furthermore, Armorlite 2-base lenses in Bermuda deliver crisp optical clarity with controlled light transmission. Backside anti-reflective treatment reduces glare and enhances visual comfort. Combined with Category 3 protection and full UV filtering, performance remains consistent in bright conditions.
Limited Production Batch
Produced in a strictly limited batch of only 200 pieces worldwide, the Devaux in Lone Mountain embodies rarity at its purest level. Consequently, each frame becomes a collectible object defined by exclusivity, craftsmanship, and enduring design value.
