We love what Cutler and Gross has done for their Spring/Summer release for 2019. When we first looked at the collection it was evident that they were re-creating some of their best-selling classics while also making what is sure to be new ones.

The collection is a perfect mixture of bold chunky (yet surprisingly light and wearable) acetates along with time-less combination styles in their classic Dark Turtle and Black colorways. Here are some highlights from the British luxury brand that is designed in London and handcrafted in Italy.

 

CUTLER AND GROSS // 1319 Eyeglasses 

Cutler and Gross // 1319 Eyeglasses

The 1319 is a re-introduction of the 0822 as a bolder, stronger, yet still supremely light-weight iconic frame. The updated vertical front pin offers a modern design while connecting the frame front to its temples.

Created using a 9mm acetate sheet, the interior portions of the frame front are removed using a technique called ‘televisioni’ milling. This milling technique allows the frame to appear bold while maintaining a light-weight structure.
