CUTLER AND GROSS
Traditionalists at heart, every Cutler and Gross frame is the result of an unrivalled ability to unify past and present. Theirs is a design legacy that spans half a century – and it shows. A marriage of small-scale production and worldwide popularity, their magic stems from the skill to draw inspiration from the vast Cutler and Gross archives, before evolving the frame to suit the faces and lifestyles of a modern audience. Authentic, specific details and sculptural contours are reinterpreted – but never lost. It’s a methodology that guarantees the brand DNA will always remain, regardless of transient trends.
This kind of operation isn’t about speed. For the last 50 years, Cutler and Gross have made quality the focus. Production takes place in Italy, at a workshop overshadowed by the Dolomites, in a region renowned for being the centre of optical manufacturing excellence. Bringing heritage to life takes time (months in fact) and involves 42 separate procedures – all of which are guided or completed by experienced hands.
Additional information
Some of the Cutler and Gross technicians have worked for the company since the 1960s. The mastery of such an intricate process, which they’ve honed over decades, affords them the title of experts in frame-making. Their distinctive techniques are steered by knowledge; it’s a definite, precision-lead operation where the human element is paramount. No two frames of the same style number will ever be 100% identical, but this is the Cutler and Gross way; it gives every pair of glasses a certain unmistakable character.
