Maison Henry Jullien

The Henry Jullien brand has stood for exceptional materials and treatments since 1921, thanks to the expertise of its master craftsmen.
Henry Jullien was a French eyewear representative. In 1921, he decided to create his own brand and built his first factory in Morez, in the Jura, the cradle of the French eyewear industry.

His vision was to elevate the perception of a pair of spectacles to the same level as jewellery or traditional watchmaking.
In our workshops in Lons-le-Saunier, France, design teams and master craftsmen ensure excellence every day.
A symbol of quality and perfection, each frame is designed, manufactured and assembled by hand by our highly skilled master craftsmen, following a very strict process.

It requires no less than 279 operations and 4 months of work.

Henry Jullien is now an EPV (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant) certified for the excellence of its craftsmanship.
This label is a distinction awarded by the French government to manufacturers with rare and renowned expertise.
It takes several years of training for a Henry Jullien master craftsman to be at the cutting edge of his art.

Visits to the workshops are not open to the general public.
