A Los Angeles design house with a historical vocabulary

The official La Maison history identifies Jérôme Jacques Marie Mage as the founder and gives 2014 as the founding year. It dates the first collection to spring 2015 and names four original frames: Dealan, Zephirin, Hatfield and Fontainebleau. Founding and first collection are separate milestones; neither makes a catalogue reference a newly launched product today.

The same history discusses the American West, French Empire style, Art Deco and Japanese craft traditions as parts of the house's cultural vocabulary. This is useful context for looking at shape and ornament. It does not mean that every detail on every frame has one documented historical origin, or that the supplier examples below belong to a particular official collection.

Three photographs, three ways to shape a front

The pictured Dealan 10th has a green front, raised outer corners and small arrow-shaped details near the hinges. The upper rim rises toward the sides while the lower lens outline is more rounded. Describing both parts is more informative than the catalogue's single Square category.

Devaux 10th is recorded as Compact rounded. Its photograph shows a pale transparent front with softer lens corners and patterned temples. Enzo 10th is recorded as Bold square; the pictured front has a straighter upper edge and more angular outer corners. Devaux and Enzo both show a long metal-colored temple insert, which becomes easier to see through the lighter front and side areas.

These are observations of the supplied photographs. Lighting, angle and transparent finishes affect how thick a rim appears. Compare a straight front image and a side image at a consistent scale before deciding whether two references fill the same place in an assortment.

Use the measurements to ask a more specific question

The supplier records list Dealan 10th at 49 / 22 / 150 mm, Devaux 10th at 43 / 27 / 150 mm and Enzo 10th at 51 / 23 / 150 mm. These are listed lens width, bridge and temple values, not measurements made for this article. Devaux's lens value is 6 mm smaller than Dealan's, but its bridge value is 5 mm larger. That combination is a reason to inspect the bridge geometry rather than assume it is simply a smaller version of Dealan.

For a useful three-frame comparison, give each reference a different visual role: raised outer corners, a compact rounded opening, or a broad angular front. Then request actual front width, lens height and photographs of the nose-contact area. Those missing views help evaluate proportion; the shared 150 mm temple entry alone does not establish similar fit.

Keep edition names and construction claims specific

La Maison describes a spring 2025 Decade collection celebrating ten years through ten frames. The words '10th' in a supplier record are not enough to connect that record to a verified numbered example from the official collection. Likewise, the house's statements about its manufacturing locations and craft processes do not document the origin of separately offered goods.

Keep the full SKU, requested colorway and photographs together when preparing an enquiry. If a particular edition, material or provenance is essential, request documentation for that exact offer. The design comparison can help choose what to examine; commercial identity and availability still need their own confirmation.
