African Cases
Our boss bought these beautiful hand painted genuine leather cases when she was in Africa the other week.
Oliver Peoples Gregory Peck
Oliver Peoples has made a frame inspired by Gregory Peck as the attorney Atticus Finch in the classic movie “To Kill a Mockingbird” from 1962.
A round shape frame and key hole bridge. Love the horizontal plaques on the front and the temples, it really gives it the perfect look!
SUNGLASS WEEK: Aviators
Aviators are probably the most common type of sunglasses and come in many different variations, from the egg shaped to the straight almost square shaped.

SUNGLASS WEEK – Classics
The Classics are a great investment and will look good for many occasions and for many years. If taken good care of, a classic sunframe may be passed down to the next generation. If you find one of these in your parent’s drawers, take great care of it.
These classics have been inspiration for many many sunglasses and still going strong.
