Oliver Goldsmith Sunwear


If you've never heard of Oliver Goldsmith nows the time to familiarize yourself with this iconic brand. Philip Oliver Goldsmith started this family business in 1926, because spectacles were boring and uninspiring. He set out to create a brand of the first fashionable sunglasses. Their first customers included Grace Kelly, Peter Sellers, and Ursala Andress to name a few. They were the first to appear in Vogue and make one-off glasses for catwalks.  

20 years after Oliver Goldsmith ceased production, his granddaughter Claire felt the time was right to bring back the individual style and quality that epitomised this iconic brand.
We've been in love with this brand for awhile but what caught our eye recently was the fact that any of the frames from their collections can be made in a miniature size for kids. How cool is that! All mini classics are made to order. Check out their site www.olivergoldsmith.com
