About Our Founder
With a background in styling and costume design, our founder, Maureen, has a profound appreciation for the power of intricate details. She also understands firsthand the wasteful nature of the fashion industry. While working on costumes for a film set in 1975, she witnessed how a single pair of glasses could transform a character from ordinary to unforgettable, from existing to captivating.
Inspired by this experience, Maureen began sourcing vintage frames from collectors worldwide, collaborating with skilled opticians to remodel each pair. It’s an art form—a way of infusing her aesthetic into wearable pieces. Every frame is one-of-a-kind, thoughtfully and ethically chosen, and reimagined. Through AZYR Specs, she aims to revolutionize the eyewear industry, offering a sustainable and unique eyewear experience that educates and inspires.
