Jacques Marie Mage

An icon of Jacques Marie Mage reimagined by a living legend, handcrafted in a colour story named after a poem by Arthur Rimbaud (1854–1891), whose work has long inspired Patti Smith. These ’60s-inspired spectacles are composed of polished black plant-based acetate with Armorlite lenses in light bottle green, featuring JMM’s signature arrowhead front-pins in sterling silver with bloodstone inlays, exposed custom wirecores engraved with lyrics from Smith’s “Land,” and inner temples foil-stamped with her signature in silver. Created in partnership with one of the most influential American artists of the modern era, this collaboration celebrates Patti Smith’s 50 years of creativity and the anniversary of her landmark album Horses (1975). “For me, this collaboration has been like writing a song with another person,” says Smith. “Except this time, it’s about our visual and design sense coming together to create something unusual. I hope people will like it.”
