JF Rey Iconic 40 box with frames

J.F. Rey Marks 40 Years with Limited Edition ICONIC40 Collection

To celebrate its 40th anniversary, French eyewear designer J.F. Rey has unveiled ICONIC40, a limited-edition reinterpretation of one of its most emblematic frames: the JF2207 “Scorpion.”

First launched in 2007, the Scorpion was recognized for its daring design and articulated temples inspired by the segmented shell of its namesake. The frame’s sculptural geometry and kinetic aesthetic became a hallmark of J.F. Rey’s “Beyond Limits” design philosophy.

The new ICONIC40 edition revisits the original with a refined, modern approach, featuring sleeker lines, lighter materials, and enhanced comfort without sacrificing its signature dynamic character. Each of the four colourways is produced in 400 individually numbered pieces, including one finished in glossy silver as a nod to the original.

Distinctive elements such as the exclusive temple stamping and two-tone detailing pay tribute to J.F. Rey’s craftsmanship and commitment to design innovation. The collection is presented in a collector’s box for optical partners, while each frame is housed in special anniversary packaging.

With ICONIC40, J.F. Rey bridges four decades of boundary-pushing creativity and contemporary expression; a fitting tribute to the brand’s bold, avant-garde legacy.
