Iconic British independent eyewear brand Cutler and Gross have chosen Edwards & Walker Opticians to exclusively stock their frames in Doncaster.
Known for their fine craftmanship and worn by everyone from David Hockney, Grace Jones and Sir Elton John to Cate Blanchett, Pedro Pascal, Michael Fassbender and Debbie Harry, these frames are the sum of flamboyance and flair as much as generational expertise and time-honoured techniques.
The brand was founded by opticians Graham Cutler and Tony Gross, who opened their first store at 16 Knightsbridge Green in 1971.
What began as a small, bespoke service quickly built a following through word of mouth, and the brand has spent over five decades developing a reputation for the fine details that make them standout.
The oyster pin. The compass 8-pointed star. The gold foil logo hand-placed into the inside of the right temple. The bespoke core wire that represents the theme of the collection.
Each pair is numbered, and handmade in workshops in Italy and Japan. They are collectibles in their own right.
"We're humbled and honoured to bring Cutler and Gross into the practice," said Dr Pretty Basra, co-owner and consultant Optometrist at Edwards & Walker. "They're a brand that's spent decades focused on getting the details right, from how the frames are made to small design touches like the oyster pin hinge and gold-foil logo. It's exactly the kind of quality we want to bring to Doncaster and to our patients."
Pete Badh, co-owner of Edwards & Walker, added “One thing we’ve always wanted to offer patients in Doncaster is something different to everyone else. Whether through our service, our patient experience, our clinical excellence – whatever it is, we want patients to feel like they’re special. And bringing a brand like Cutler and Gross to Doncaster definitely fits that space.”
Cutler and Gross frames are now available to view and try at Edwards & Walker Opticians, 16 Priory Place.
