Story and Legacy

The SCHOLAR Tartaruga Verde captures a dialogue between heritage and innovation. Its elegant tortoise frame contrasted with vivid emerald lenses creates a balance of natural depth and contemporary clarity. Designed for the individual drawn to presence through subtlety, it reimagined timeless design as a vessel of modern precision.

Handcrafted in Modena, Italy using premium Italian hardware, this limited edition of 250 pieces worldwide embodied Maison Marcel’s refined approach to craft and sustainability. Each piece was documented, numbered, and finished with ridged temples for effortless removal and enduring comfort. Conceived in Miami and realized through Italian artistry, it remains a testament to preservation over production, merging sophistication with utility in its purest form.
