  • Oliver Goldsmith Eyewear started over 75 years

    ago and are still going today. Perhaps their

    peak period was around the time this pair

    were made, when movie stars and Royals

    were wearing OG designs. Goo Goo is a fabulous

    Sixties shape, the eyepieces are discs with

    defined edges joining wide arms that stay

    wide in a paddle style. (We know it is Goo Goo

    as it is one of the designs that has been

    released in an updated fashion by Oliver Goldsmith

    - but they don't match the original: the 60's version

    was given sharper angles and wider paddles.) Original

    Oliver Goldsmith frames and sunglasses are now

    exhibited in the Victoria & Albert Museum,

    London.
