Our Story
Tejesta is a design-centered eyewear brand based in Miami, FL, inspired by a diverse range of influences and driven by a vision to create collectible, wearable art. Our spectacles are crafted for those who seek distinction and quality, embodying the rugged spirit of the American West and the elegance of Art Deco.
Romance
Tejesta creates small-batch collections, each crafted with intention and care—ephemeral in their exclusivity. Our frames are designed to elevate the wearer, merging personal identity with imaginative expression. Combining artisanal craftsmanship with advanced production methods, we produce luxury eyewear that honors the icons of the past while embracing the aesthetics of the future.
A Vision
Every frame design is a romance that continues to reveal itself. Jonathan Oberti, founder of Tejesta, has spent his whole life in the eyewear universe, thoughtfully trained by his father in the family optical shop. His journey has been one of both triumphs and challenges, with each lesson honing the craft and shaping the brand into what it is today. Driven by the pursuit to bring his vision to life, Oberti combines persistence with precision, creating a brand that stands as a testament to his dedication.
Our Materials
Tejesta frames are crafted from custom-made acetate, and now in a new dimension, Titanium. Our acetate, a renewable plant-based, hypoallergenic plastic derived from wood pulp and natural cotton fibers, is sourced from high end suppliers based in Italy and Japan. Newly designed and constructed titanium frames introduce lightweight durability to our lineup, offering unmatched strength and flexibility for a superior fit. Together these materials harmonize to create spectacles that balance timeless craftsmanship with modern innovation.
