Romy from Irchenrieth, Germany visited us in Old Spitalfields Market and decided this 1980's pair by
German frame makers, Marwitz, was just for her - and we agreed. Looks great, Romy - and thanks for
the photos!

Here's Dameion from New York City again, this time in the ultra rare 1980's Cazal 634 that he bought last year.
Dameion was so happy to receive the 163s (see below) that he also sent us these photos of his previous purchase.
Thanks, Dameion!

Dameion from New York City had to wait an angonisingly long time to receive his 1980's Cazal 163 frame as they went
missing for 7 weeks in the postal system. We don't know who to blame, Royal Mail or USPS, but at least the did arrive:
for a while there we thought they were lost. Dameion promptly cut and fitted his own lenses from what looks to be original
Cazal blanks.

Angela from Edinburgh used to visit us all the time when she lived down south, but since she's
moved back to Scotland we
only occasionally see her. But she kindly sent us a photo of her favourite pair she bought from us a while ago into which we
fitted her lenses. From memory they are French and look to be from the mid-1960's. See you soon, Angela!

Berry from The Netherlands had been looking for a pair like this for ages until he passed our stall at Old Spitalfields Market and
found this 1960's frame by Algha into which he asked us to fit his lenses. And when they landed on the continent, Berry emailed
us this great photo.

John from Connecticut, USA bought our 1970's Ray-Ban Vagabond, Olympics Edition, to replace a
pair he bought back in 1976. He very kindly sent us this photo of him wearing them back in the day. This
one he eventually sold to - wait for it - King Khalid of Saudi Arabia for $500, "...an offer I could not refuse..."
He was happy to find an identical pair on our website adding, "...I'm holding on to these!"

Stephen from Northhants also visited our stall at Old Spitalfields Market and found this 1980's frame by

checking the web site. Nice Bentley, too. Thanks, Stephen!

original grey

Regular customer Amy from Cambridgeshire (see earlier photo on these pages) this time went for a
Nylon Supra cat-eye from Michael Birch. Perhaps Amy was tempted by Birch's name for this pair,
Mischief, one of his most popular designs. Said Amy, "I love my new glasses!"
|

Company Director Nicola from London needed some reading glasses with gravitas to reflect her position
in industry and went for this classy 1960's aluminium half-eye from US company, Liberty. Says Nicola,
"Here's a pic with me wearing the bronze half moons which i just love. They are really comfy as well."
Glad you like them, Nicola.
