Cartier eyewear needs no introduction. They have been creating the most classic rimless pieces for many years. Whilst Cartier has been taken over by the Kerring Eyewear group, Cartier is the only fashion house to have its own dedicated manufacturing site for its eyewear, ensuring complete control over every aspect of the production process. Unlike all other fashion houses which are not directly linked with designs from the fashion house them selves, rather just a logo on the frame.  Luckily for us, we have worked hard to obtain a Cartier license in our Woburn Sands branch and will be supplying our customers with the most luxurious custom Cartier eyewear.
