"Resurrected Celluloid"
2020年にスタートしたAKIRA & SONSは、セルロイドをメインマテリアルとしてプロダクトを制作してきました。
しかし諸事情によりセルロイドでの生産が難しくなり、やむを得ずアセテートへと切り替えてきました。
そして今回、再び原点に立ち返り、セルロイドでのアイウェア生産が可能となりました。
セルロイドの魅力は、その独特な硬さとしなやかさのバランス。
さらに、手仕事によって生まれる美しい光沢感と、しっとりとした肌馴染みも大きな特長です。
大量生産には不向きで、時代の流れに逆らう素材かもしれません。
それでも、最新の機械では再現できない繊細な造形美は、熟練の職人の手仕事からのみ生まれるものです。
それは単なる「掛けるための道具」を超え、所有する喜びへとつながります。
AKIRA & SONSは、シンプルでありながらプロダクトとしての美しさを内包したデザインを目指しています。
もちろん実用性も兼ね備え、眼鏡技術者も納得できるクオリティを追求し続けます。

"Resurrected Celluloid"
Since its launch in 2020, AKIRA & SONS has been producing eyewear primarily from celluloid.
Due to certain circumstances, we were once forced to shift to acetate production, but this season we return to our origins, making it possible once again to produce eyewear in celluloid.
Celluloid is characterized by its unique balance of firmness and flexibility, and above all, the beautiful luster and smooth feel created through handcraft.
Although it is unsuitable for mass production and requires a production background that runs counter to today’s trends, the precise artistry achievable only by skilled craftsmen—not by the latest machinery—brings not only the joy of wearing glasses, but also the joy of owning them.
At AKIRA & SONS, our aim is eyewear that is simple yet embodies true product beauty, combined with practicality.
We design frames that meet the standards of professional opticians and deliver genuine quality.
Please contact the person in charge to make an appointment.
