As the French team prepares for an exceptional photo shoot to showcase a luxurious eyewear collection, we were also thrilled to welcome Maurice Léonard, the visionary owner who traveled from Belgium. He arrived with a stunning selection of glasses, each pair more captivating than the last, crafted from exquisite materials such as gold and rare woods. Each frame is a true work of art.

Maurice's journey began in 1995 with a dream of transforming eyewear into a true art form. He started in a modest workshop with a small team of artisans, dedicating himself to creating frames that were more than mere accessories; they were objects of desire, each infused with character and sophistication. From the very beginning, Maurice embraced unique materials such as wood and silk, setting a new standard for elegance and individuality.

Through his dedication to craftsmanship, that small workshop transformed into the globally celebrated luxury brand Gold & Wood, which is now synonymous with refinement and quality. Prestigious triumphs soon followed, including Silmo d’Or awards for the 'Star' and 'Moon' models. Adorned with exotic woods, carbon fiber, and precious stones, Gold & Wood frames represent a vision of eyewear as high art.

Today, Gold & Wood is celebrated worldwide as a symbol of beauty and craftsmanship. Each pair of glasses honours the harmony between nature and human artistry, creating a legacy of elegance that continues to inspire.

During the energetic photoshoot with Marie-Automne Peyregne, who looked stunning in a couture suit and dress by Julien Fournié, we had the opportunity to sit down with Maurice. Despite the fast pace of his eyewear adventures, he remains as passionate and energetic as ever, continuously pushing boundaries in the world of luxury eyewear.
