François Pinton Paris has always been rich in history, passion and friendship, as typified by the iconic models worn by Grace Kelly or Jackie and Aristote Onassis, the controversial couple of the 60s. There have always been celebrities, politicians and artists for whom glasses are a signature accessory. And their frames are now a source of creative inspiration.
For all of its collections, including this Elite range, François Pinton Paris has opted for artisan manufacturing based in Normandy and the Jura region of France. By maintaining close relationships with its workshops, the House perpetuates its tradition of superbly made frames.
