The Take Your Time frame is the antithesis of "fast fashion." It is a deliberate, slow-burn design that rewards the wearer who appreciates subtle complexities. Produced in a strictly limited edition batch, this frame is for the collector who values exclusivity as much as architectural confidence.
While other Joly frames might shout, this one speaks with a refined authority. Handcrafted in Italy over several months, the silhouette honors Joly’s "thick-milled" signature but applies it to a soft, rounded-square geometry—a reminder to appreciate the slow art of artisanal creation.
- Refined Volume: Features Joly’s signature acetate depth sculpted with softer transitions, making it highly wearable for diverse face shapes.
- Architectural Bevelling: The interior edges are hand-carved to create a "stepped" effect, adding structural interest while reducing visual weight.
- Timeless Ergonomics: A stable 24mm bridge ensures a comfortable, perfectly positioned anchor point for all-day wear.
Styling Tip: Take Your Time is the quintessential "all-day" frame. Its 45mm lens width is a classic "goldilocks" size, making it the ideal investment in architectural eyewear that outlasts any trend.

Can you tell me more about the brands?
We don’t believe in mass-produced fashion. Instead, we curate a selection of independent eyewear that you won’t find at a big-box store.
We look for designers who share our values: people who prioritize sculptural design, premium materials like Italian acetate and surgical-grade titanium, and an uncompromising commitment to fit.
Whether you're looking for a bold statement or a quiet classic, our collections are chosen for their character, not their brand name.
