In 1964, Joël LESCA created his first collection in a small workshop in the Secrétan neighborhood, in the 19th arrondissement of Paris. Since then, Joel Lesca has worked with artisans in several European countries including France. Inspired by traditional manufacturing techniques, LESCA glasses are riveted and shaped according to the artisans’ exacting specifications, avoiding mass production. Today, his sons, Mathieu and Bertrand, seek to revive past Lesca collections while respecting the brand’s DNA, thus enhancing the brand’s history while remaining creative and modern.
Frames come in a variety of sizes. If you look inside your frame, you will likely see two or three numbers listed.
The first number (usually between 48 and 58) is the width of the lens. The second number (usually between 15 and 25) is the width of the bridge, or the distance between the lenses. The higher the number, the greater the distance. The last number (usually between 135 and 150) is the length of the temples. If you have noticed that the temples do not rest well when trying on glasses, you should look for glasses with a temple length of at least 145 mm.
