Founded in 1969, British luxury eyewear brand Cutler and Gross combines the finest Italian craftsmanship with irrefutably cool style. Since its establishment in fashion’s halcyon days, the brand’s signature creativity has been applied to sunglasses and optical frames with their trademark numbered designs and absence of an ostentatious logo.

For decades, Graham Cutler and Tony Gross’s frames relied, in part, upon their reputation being dripped and whispered within style and fashion circles like verbal quicksilver. Considered bastions of iconic eyewear, Cutler and Gross designs continue to grace many of the most recognisable faces in the worlds of art, design, music and film.

Taking its inspiration from the 0797, a mid 1990s 'party piece' from the Cutler and Gross archive, the 9797 experiments with the tenets of acetate design and construction.

Sculpted frontals, weight-saving milling and compass star pins add modern flourishes to a distinctly retro frame. 6-base lenses wrap around and cover your eyes completely; a frame for after the afterparty.
