This year marks the 120th anniversary of MASUNAGA, and to celebrate, the brand has introduced the “Edition 120” commemorative collection, featuring two special models: LEX and RADIO CITY. These releases profoundly reflect the brand’s core essence of prestige and understated elegance. The LEX model showcases a square frame design that exudes a calm sophistication, highlighting its classic style, while the RADIO CITY model features a pear-shaped design, characterized by smooth and concise lines that embody a refined minimalist aesthetic. Both models are intricately detailed with delicate angles on the temples and nose pads, giving the overall silhouette an air of elegance.
Notably, both special editions utilize MASUNAGA’s unique 18K gold and titanium metal bonding technology, creating a seamless fusion of two distinctly different materials on the temple areas, resulting in a striking two-tone visual effect that enhances the originally sleek and minimalist design. This harmonious blend of the luxurious aura of 18K gold with the practicality of titanium emphasizes MASUNAGA’s design gene that values detail. Additionally, the left temple of each eyewear model is engraved with “Edition120,” discreetly highlighting its commemorative significance.
