Brand Philosophy
"My idea of design is a little old-fashioned. It should be practical, functional, then look good – in that order."
— GRAHAM CUTLER
People who need glasses don’t have to feel separated from glamour."

A LEGACY OF DESIGN
Traditional at heart, every Cutler and Gross frame is the result of an unparalleled ability to unite past and present. Their design expertise spans over half a century, blending small-scale production with a global reputation—all deeply inspired by the extensive Cutler and Gross archives.
HANDCRAFTED MASTERPIECE
Some of the technicians at Cutler and Gross have been working with the designers since the 1960s. Mastering such an intricate process, refined over decades, elevates them to true frame-making experts. This heritage guides their unique techniques, ensuring a high-precision operation where the human touch remains paramount. No two frames bearing the same model number will ever be completely identical. This is the ultimate Cutler and Gross hallmark: guaranteeing that every single pair possesses its own unique character.
The design is sleek and stripped of all unnecessary embellishments; this absolute functional simplicity leaves no room for flaws. The rivets securing the hinges are driven into hand-drilled holes, eschewing the faster, mass-production heat-transfer methods favored by other brands. Instead of being hastily dipped into an acetone bath for a superficial gloss, the frames are tumbled and finished to reveal their deep coloration. This is far from a simple surface treatment. At Cutler and Gross, bold shades are built through successive layers of premium pigments that enhance color depth and intensity.
The brilliant luster of the frames is achieved through a 24-hour tumbling process in wooden barrels filled with resin chips. This smooths the surface and prepares the frames for a hand-polishing stage gentle enough to preserve their crisp, defined edges. Each pair is completed with premium lenses—because, let’s be honest, such exceptional frames deserve nothing less.
