Jacques Marie Mage: The Pinnacle of Limited-Edition Luxury

In the world of independent eyewear, Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) stands in a category of its own. Founded by Jerome Mage in Hollywood, California, this brand is defined by "micro-production," where every frame is part of a strictly limited run—often with only a few hundred pieces available worldwide. At 20/20 Optical, we are proud to be one of the premier authorized dealers for Jacques Marie Mage in Marin County, serving a clientele of collectors and enthusiasts from Tiburon, Mill Valley, and across the Bay Area who seek eyewear that is as rare as it is beautiful.

The JMM aesthetic is an intersection of historical motifs and modern architectural boldness. Utilizing 10mm thick cellulose acetate and high-grade titanium, these frames possess a tactile substance and "weight of quality" that is instantly recognizable. Each piece is handcrafted in Japan, requiring over 100 hands to complete a single frame. Whether it is the iconic Zephirin, the bold Dealan, or the sculptural Enzo, Jacques Marie Mage frames are designed for those who view their eyewear as a collectible art form rather than a mere accessory.

Because of the substantial nature and bold proportions of JMM frames, the technical skill of your optician is vital. David specializes in the intricate process of "face-shape styling," ensuring that a 10mm acetate frame complements your features without overwhelming them. At our San Rafael boutique, we take the time to perform precision adjustments, balancing the weight of the frame perfectly across the bridge and temples. This personalized approach is essential for JMM, as these frames are designed to last a lifetime and should feel like a second skin.

A frame of this caliber demands equally exceptional optics. At 20/20 Optical, we pair the artistry of Jacques Marie Mage with the clinical leadership of Dr. Kathy Ong. Our comprehensive eye examinations utilize the latest diagnostic technology to ensure your prescription is as sharp as your style. We specialize in fitting JMM frames with high-definition digital lenses from our on-site lab, allowing us to maintain complete quality control over the final product.

For those in the North Bay seeking an eyewear destination that prioritizes rarity and craftsmanship over mass-market trends, 20/20 Optical offers an unrivaled experience. We invite you to visit our downtown San Rafael showroom to explore our latest JMM arrivals. Given the limited nature of these collections, each visit offers a chance to discover a unique piece of eyewear history that you won't find anywhere else in Marin. Experience the "Category of One" with Jacques Marie Mage and 20/20 Optical—where world-class design meets professional optometric excellence.
