Introducing Japanese spectacle-making to the world from Gion
"EYEVAN," which has aggressively expanded overseas, mainly in Europe and the United States, is a specialty store with a collection of original brand labels. A professional concierge service is also available.
The store is housed in a machiya (townhouse) that blends in with the streets of Gion. The staff's uniforms also have a Japanese essence and are made by the Kyoto-based brand “Rainmaker.
A modern interior with white as its base. In the central atrium, there is an object using a Kyoto fan. It expresses the brand's world view.
The “EYEVAN tortoise” series was custom-ordered from “osawabekko”, a maker of traditional tortoise shell glasses. The temple on E-0504, part of the capsule collection, was made of tortoiseshell. Although it is a classic Boston shape, the gloss of the tortoiseshell temple gives it a high quality impression.
This is a collaboration item with Komaruyazumii, a long-established store with a history of more than 1000 years. The eye-catching design is EYEVAN's original.
An original patterned washcloth with a glasses motif. This is a collaboration item with Ihara Dyeing Co., Ltd. that preserves the beauty of the Kyo-Yuzen tradition.
