Masunaga
No other Japanese company commands the level of tradition and esteem that MASUNAGA does. This is due to the fact that Gozaemon Masunaga, the company's founder, founded his own eyeglasses company in the Fukui region as early as 1905.
Masunaga-san encouraged Osaka and Tokyo master optical craftsmen to establish businesses in the region around this time. For this reason, the top manufacturing and workshops for eyewear in Japan are still located in Fukui. And MASUNAGA keeps setting new standards with its painstaking manual manufacturing techniques and premium materials.
MASUNAGA eyewear is renowned for its uncompromising, distinctive finish around the world. Beautiful, hand-polished acetate, pure titanium, strong hinges, and distinctive rivets are just a few of the standout qualities. It should come as no surprise that the business has provided glasses to the Japanese royal court for many years. All processes involved in creating an optical frame are still done in-house today. Impressive considering that certain MASUNAGA spectacles have over 200 steps in their production.
Additionally, MASUNAGA is a Japanese eyewear company that some foreign optical labels rely on to create its frames because of its reputation for high quality.
