In Molasses, the Ayrton deepens into something richer — a dark Havana brown with a treacle-like depth that’s darker and more saturated than the standard Havana Brown. It brings a quiet sophistication to the bold curved silhouette, the kind of colour that reveals its warmth slowly in different light.

The Ayrton is our nod to the famed Brazilian racing driver. With its bold and beautifully curved design, this frame makes a strong statement — just as Ayrton Senna consistently did, on and off the racetrack. Cut from a single sheet of premium Japanese acetate sourced from Takiron Rowland, each frame is handcrafted in Sabae, Japan by Takumi master craftsmen with over 30 years of experience. Over 200 manual processes across six weeks produce a frame of exceptional quality.

From June 2022 onwards, the Jet Black (JBK) colour will have kazari (metal ornaments) on the side of the arms.
