Andrew wears — and what a great choice ✌️

This piece is one of those frames that rewards a closer look. A 3D-printed polyamide front paired with ultra-light beta-titanium temples — near-weightless on the face, with an unseen hinge and shape memory that keeps the fit exactly where it should be.

Andrew, you look brilliant in them. Enjoy every wear.

We're back open Monday — come in, try something on, and see what good design feels like 👓

Aviators have real lineage — the kind of shape that defined an era — and Mehvish wears them beautifully ❤️

The acetate aviator was the go-to silhouette for the icons of the 1970s — film, music, culture — and SALT. has carried that forward without losing what made it work. Designed in California and handcrafted in Japan brings soft lines, considered proportions, and an obsessive focus on optics — engineered to carry a prescription properly, with specific thickness transitions so the frame never puts stress on the lens.

Mehvish's lenses are finished with Seiko Road coating developed specifically to reduce the glare of oncoming headlights, so driving at night is clearer and more comfortable.

If you've been putting off glasses, or you're just ready for a change, come in and try something on. We'd love to help 👓

Some customers just have the eye for it. Laura is one of them — a genuine eyewear enthusiast. So when she chose this latest piece by Theo, nobody here was surprised 🚀

This piece is part of the Painter Palettes collection — heavy acetate, bold square shape, with two transparent colours (opal green and transparent red) sitting one over the other to create a third. A classic move, and it works perfectly.

The frame is named after Vilmos Huszár — a Hungarian painter who co-founded the De Stijl movement with Mondrian in 1917. Bold geometry, unexpected colour, nothing wasted. The frame suits the inspiration — and Laura looks incredible in them.

Zac is back — and still as handsome as ever!

When he first visited us a while ago, he chose a beautiful pair from collection. Today he's collecting his new pair — crystal blue front, warm mustard temples, and all the cool factor going. Bold, bright, and very much him.

With kids, we say the same thing: they have to love what's on their face. Fit, comfort, and durability matter every bit as much as the look — and Anne et Valentin deliver on all three.

We paired his new frames with Seiko personalised lenses, tailored to his prescription and the exact frame he's wearing — sharper vision to the edges, no distortion, a wider field of view, and lenses that sit slimmer and look more natural. A genuinely brilliant experience for a boy who deserves to see the world clearly 🚀

We reopen Tuesday after the bank holiday — if your kiddo is due an eye exam or ready for a seriously cool new look, we'd love to see them 👓

There's a frame for everyone. This one found its person. Mary wears

A deep, earthy tortoise-green striated acetate, a sculpted bridge, and a rounded aviator shape that sits somewhere between art object and eyewear.

Very Theo. Very Antwerp. A perfect mix of classic and quietly rebellious — the way great design should feel.

If you've been playing it safe with frames, this might be your sign to stop. Come in — we'd love to help you find something with a bit more edge ⚡️👓

You might remember Natalia from a previous post. Well, she's back — and she's done it again⚡️

Her second frame is and is a totally different look to her first. A slightly larger, chunkier acetate with real presence. The colour is what gets you: a deep, jewel-toned burgundy that's rich, warm, and honestly not unlike a very good glass of wine. Incredibly stylish.

Anne et Valentin were founded by opticians — people who understand how frames live on a face. Each pair is handcrafted in the Jura region of France. The result is a collection that feels different from anything else out there — considered in a way that only comes from people who truly understand eyewear.

Natalia, you have excellent taste. Twice over.

If you've been thinking about a second pair — or a first — come in and let's find yours 📍

Catherine found her frame 💚

What sets this piece apart are the adjustable titanium nose pads, signature filigree end pieces, refined metal accents, and custom temple end caps — detail that speaks to the care that went into the piece.

The collection draws a connection between the Californian spirit and Japanese craft. And that's exactly what makes it work.

Catherine looks incredible. And why wouldn't she — your frames are the first thing people see when they meet you. Make them count.

If you're looking for eyewear that feels like an extension of you, come see us.

There's something magnetic about this combination — a matte grey front with an ultramarine satin back, all in Ørgreen's signature titanium ⚡️👓

Stephen had been putting off getting new glasses for a while — we think the wait was worth it.

The colour story is subtle from the front — understated, cool, considered — and then the ultramarine reveals itself from the side.

Two finishes, one material, zero compromise — the craft is in the detail. This is what happens when engineers and designers are working from the same brief.

All titanium means feather-light to wear and built to last.
