Oliver Goldsmith
Oliver Goldsmith, established in London in 1926 by Phillip Oliver Goldsmith, is a British heritage brand known for its iconic sunglasses. It was one of the first brands to recognize that sunglasses could be more than just functional eyewear and could serve as fashion accessories.
While initially successful, the brand halted its sunglasses production in 1985. However, after a hiatus of 20 years, Oliver Goldsmith returned to the sunglasses market, much to the delight of fashion enthusiasts. The brand tapped into its extensive archive of vintage designs from the 1950s to the 1970s, resulting in frames that are revered for their quality and craftsmanship.
Oliver Goldsmith mainly collaborates with artisanal ateliers in Japan and Italy to ensure the preservation of traditional handmade frame-shaping techniques, whether using metal or acetate. This commitment to craftsmanship and attention to detail is a testament to the brand's dedication to producing exceptional sunglasses.
