FRANÇOIS PINTON | PERSONALITY and nothing else







" But remember, this is your personality and nothing else that will inspire the style of your frame. "






This story begins with a man who calls his essence to produce creatively, his "creator tendency".  Robert Pinton believed this tendency was most important in the creative process to directly  achieve authenticity and legitimize a body of work.  


Mr. Pinton's body of work commenced with the creation of     

R A N Ç O I S   P I N T O N  COLLECTION in 1932.  The refinement and  quality practiced by this professional craftsman quickly focused a faithful following.  The creations in his  collections would garner him a patriotic followership and almost demand unparalleled admiration from his clients, many among which were fabulously famous personalities.


Marlene Dietrich  wrote about him, "You are the only man I've ever been faithful to..."  


Jacqueline Kennedy most iconic and famously remembered accessory was a manifestation of his design philosophy.  We all know the Jacky O´ look.  

F R A N Ç O I S   P I N T O N  designs are timeless reflections of a designer profession with respect for the soul of the craft released in each piece comprising the emblematic collection.

"A timeless frame will stay timeless, however it seems extremely sharp and accurate on some people, or classical or vintage on some others.  Some models in this collection will fit as well your mother, brother or niece.  But remember, this is your personality and nothing else that will inspire the style of your frame."
