FRAME DETAILS
Brand: MAYBACH Eyewear
Model: The Artist IX
Style: Rimless rectangular optical / sunglass
Construction: Precision rimless luxury construction
Hardware: Gold-plated titanium
Temples: Handcrafted fine wood
Origin: Handmade in Germany
The Artist IX is one of MAYBACH’s signature minimalist rimless designs, combining precious-metal titanium construction with natural luxury materials. MAYBACH identifies fine woods and titanium among the materials used throughout its handmade German eyewear collections. (MAYBACH EYEWEAR)
The wood temples are particularly special. MAYBACH’s fine-wood construction has been described as multiple ultra-thin wood veneers bonded together and finished beneath numerous coats of high-gloss piano varnish, giving the temples their deep, polished appearance while preserving the individuality of the natural grain. (Lexor Miami)
Signature details include:
- Sculptural MAYBACH hinge medallions
- Gold-plated titanium bridge and mounting hardware
- Fine wood temples
- MAYBACH temple branding
- Decorative precious-metal temple-tip inlays
- Adjustable nose pads
- Architectural rimless construction
LENSES
NEW CUSTOM LENSES — CURRENTLY INSTALLED
Premium Diamond-Cut Blue Smoke Gradient sun lenses
A dramatic smoky blue-violet tint begins richly saturated across the upper portion of the lens and gradually fades toward nearly clear at the bottom.
The lenses are individually cut for the rimless Artist IX and finished with a pronounced faceted / diamond-cut edge treatment, turning the lens itself into part of the frame’s jewelry-like architecture.
The Artist IX is specifically associated with faceted lens-edge detailing; contemporary references describe the model with hand-polished facets incorporated into its rimless lens presentation. (Instagram)
Custom lens package retail value: $850+.
These are not ordinary replacement lenses. The tint, gradient, custom shaping and faceted finishing completely transform the original optical frame into a one-of-a-kind MAYBACH sunglass.
ORIGINAL MAYBACH LENSES — INCLUDED
The original clear MAYBACH factory lenses are included separately and are pictured.
They have been retained rather than discarded, allowing the next owner to preserve the frame’s original factory configuration.
Original clear-lens configurations of The Artist IX are documented by MAYBACH retailers. (GEM Opticians)
For a luxury piece of this caliber, having both the custom sunglass configuration and the original factory lenses is an important part of the package.
SIZE & FIT
Lens Width: 57mm
Bridge: 19mm
Temple Length: 145mm
Fit: Medium to Large
Shape: Rectangular / rimless
The Artist IX is documented in the 57-19-145 configuration. (Lexor Miami)
Because the lenses are rimless, the frame maintains an unusually light visual profile despite its strong rectangular proportions.
WHY WE LOVE THEM | ERA & RELEVANCE
This is exactly what makes MAYBACH different.
From a distance, The Artist IX is restrained and elegant. Up close, it reveals layers of craftsmanship: gold-plated titanium, beautifully finished natural wood, sculptural MAYBACH hardware and extraordinarily detailed rimless construction.
Then come the lenses.
The new Diamond-Cut Blue Smoke Gradient lenses take the Artist IX from sophisticated optical eyewear into full statement-sunglass territory. The faceted edges catch the light while the blue-violet gradient gives the frame an entirely different personality.
And nothing original was sacrificed.
The factory clear MAYBACH lenses remain with the set, giving the next owner two distinct ways to experience the frame.
MAYBACH continues to feature The Artist IX within its optical collection. (MAYBACH EYEWEAR)
Unworn. Fine wood. Gold-plated titanium. $850+ custom lenses. Original lenses retained. Handmade in Germany.
This is serious MAYBACH.
