The brand
Their hand-made, bespoke frames were the natural choice for many a discerning customer, who valued the Cutler and Gross commitment to quality, fit and good design. Modern-day attitudes to eyewear were transformed forever thanks to their pioneering approach that fused elegance, creativity and cutting-edge craft without compromise. It’s a philosophy that has endured for over half a century and continues to shape the Cutler and Gross collections to this day.
Manifesto
“If you buy a handcrafted pair of glasses or sunglasses, you want to see the tiny inaccuracies, the straight, raw edges of the plastic, the pins – they give character, make them unique to the wearer. The Cutler and Gross customer has always been an individual. Eccentric maybe, but a rare breed, certainly.”
– Graham Cutler
Values
Traditionalists at heart, every Cutler and Gross frame is the result of an unrivalled ability to unify past and present. A design legacy that spans half a century – and it shows. A marriage of small-scale production and worldwide popularity, our magic stems from the skill to draw inspiration from the vast Cutler and Gross archives, before evolving the frame to suit the faces and lifestyles of a modern audience. Authentic, specific details and sculptural contours are reinterpreted – but never lost. It’s a methodology that guarantees the brand DNA will always remain, regardless of transient trends.
