Embark on a journey into the world of Masunaga Optical Glasses, where a legacy of over a century unfolds. The brand was founded in 1905 in Fukui, Japan, by eyewear pioneer Gozaemon Masunaga, standing as a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and timeless design. Within six years of its establishment, Masunaga Optical earned a Gold Medal at Japan's National Manufacturing Trade Exhibition, marking the beginning of a legacy adorned with accolades. Today, Fukui, Japan, proudly hosts Masunaga's integrated factory, overseeing all processes from raw materials to production and finish—a unique approach that sets Masunaga apart.
Masunaga Optical's commitment to excellence is exemplified in the creation of its optical glasses collection. With as many as 200 manual processes involved in crafting each frame, Masunaga stands as the sole company in Japan, with an integrated factory overseeing every step of production. This approach not only enhances productivity but also ensures unparalleled detail and quality. When developing new models, Masunaga Optical goes the extra mile by building molds in-house to address wear comfort issues promptly and effectively.
