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.
