FRAME

Wearable Sculpture. Two Lens Editions. 20 Pieces Each.

A study in color, place and memory.

SCHOLAR STUDY 06220 takes its name from the postal code of Vallauris–Golfe-Juan, a place woven into Marcel Katz’s life in the South of France. Its warm tortoiseshell palette recalls the desserts he enjoyed in town: deep cocoa browns, caramel tones and golden highlights, translated into a sculptural object made to be worn.

The familiar richness of brown acetate meets the unexpected lines of the MARCEL Scholar. A rounded front, sculpted contours and undulating temples give the frame a rhythm of its own. Light moves through the tortoiseshell, revealing subtle shifts in color and depth.

Imagined in Miami and handcrafted in Modena, Italy, STUDY 06220 carries a personal memory of Golfe-Juan into everyday life.

Two lens editions offer two expressions of the same frame. Brown lenses deepen its warm, tonal character. Amber lenses bring a lighter golden warmth. Each lens edition is limited to 20 pieces worldwide, creating a total production of 40 pieces.
