  • Oliver Goldsmith Eyewear started over 75 years

    ago and are still going today. Perhaps their

    peak period was around the time this pair

    were made, when movie stars and Royals

    were wearing OG designs. (Off camera, Peter

    Sellers even wore the men's version of this pair -

    check him out.) This pair was made from the

    early 1970's and was part of a goldside range that

    OG had made by an Italian company, Errebi.

    The arms are gold aluminium given a brushed

    finish on the outside and smooth on the inner

    face. The joints are inset to the frame and held

    by shields in the shape of harps on each side.

    Oliver Goldsmith frames and sunglasses are now

    exhibited in the Victoria & Albert Museum, London.

    NB: frame marked down due to a few very minor

    minor marks on the aluminium arms where they

    have crossed and some gold rubbed off on the

    harps.
