Story and Legacy

The GUARDIAN I in Skeleton Gravel emerged as an exploration of transparency and structure. Its lightweight silhouette, visible nose bridge, and translucent acetate create a dialogue between form and absence, revealing the skeleton beneath the surface. Designed for long-term comfort and effortless wear, it captured the balance between modern refinement and mechanical honesty.

Handcrafted in Modena, Italy by seasoned artisans, this edition represented Maison Marcel’s study of clarity and precision. Limited to only 150 pieces worldwide, each frame was engraved, numbered, and presented with full archival documentation. Conceived in Miami and realized through Italian craftsmanship, it reflected the Maison’s philosophy of preservation over production, a transparent monument to comfort, sophistication, and sustainable design.
