Maison Bonnet: Iconic Bespoke Eyewear

In this new episode of Sartorial Talks, we have the honor to welcome Franck and Steven Bonnet of Maison Bonnet, one of the most respected and acclaimed bespoke spectacle makers in the world.

The Bonnet family has created and crafted by hand, since more than 60 years, frames for personalities like Yves St Laurent, Le Corbusier, Jackie Kennedy, Audrey Hepburn, Jacques Chirac, François Mitterand, Maria Callas, Mr Pei or Aristote Onassis (among many others).

In their atelier in Bourgogne France, the Bonnet family is one of the last companies in the world to craft tortoise shell frames (with a stock of turtle shells acquired before the convention of Washington in 1974 which forbid the commerce and importation of turtle shells to protect the species): an extremely sophisticated and demanding art mastered by only a handful of artisans on the planet.

Since 12 years, Maison Bonnet decided to allow more customers to have access to their extraordinary bespoke experience by working with new materials like buffalo horn or cotton acetate (an organic and bio degradable plastic).

A one-of-a-kind artisanal company and a passionate family of craftsmen who recently opened a workshop in London-Mayfair to serve an ever-growing clientele of discerning ladies and gentlemen.
