About LESCA LUNETIER

Sculpted acetate and generous proportions

Lesca draws on the design of the 1950s and 1960s: generous proportions, sculpted acetate, unexpected shapes and vivid tones. Its vintage line uses original acetate plates produced in Jura factories between the 1950s and 1970s, which is why some editions exist in very small numbers.

Pica, Posh, Corbs and the other models

Pica has a faceted crown panto upper line, Posh a rectangular front in Small and Medium, Corbs round lenses with bold proportions. The OCCHIO selection also includes Ogre XL, Cuba, Club, Saga, Burt, Toro and Heri, plus limited editions such as Klar LTD30 and Bird LTD27.

How to choose your Lesca glasses

Pica, Posh or Corbs?

Start with the shape: Pica has a faceted upper line, Posh a rectangular front, and Corbs round lenses with bold proportions. Then compare colours within your chosen model: black, tortoiseshell and translucent acetate each give the same shape a different presence.

Optical frames or sunglasses?

Check the lens details on the individual product page. Frames supplied with demonstration lenses do not include prescription lenses. For sunglasses, also check the stated lens specifications.

How do you check the size?

Lens width, bridge width and temple length help you compare frames, but do not fully describe the fit on your nose or the overall frame width. Use our size guide and compare the measurements with a pair you wear comfortably.
