We are delighted to announce the launch of Cubitts Spectacle Makers, a unique charity auction in partnership with Create Charity Nine extraordinary spectacle frames, each meticulously designed by a renowned creative and handcrafted at the Cubitts’ King’s Cross workshop.
Each frame explores innovative concepts, including secondary functions, anthropomorphic elements, personal allusions, unconventional materials, and experimental techniques, offering a fresh and imaginative take on the humble pair of spectacles.
Thank you to David Shrigley, Erica Toogood, Faye Toogood, Yinka Ilori, Laxmi Hussain, Shona Heath, Wilfrid Wood, Jaimus Tailor and Daniel Weil for their generous contribution to the project.
The frames are now on display to the public at Cubitts Islington until the 28th of September and are available to bid on via our online auction.
