Cutler and Gross in Coffs Harbour: Why This Iconic Eyewear Brand Belongs at Lens Lounge

If you know your eyewear, you’ll know the name Cutler and Gross.

Founded in London in 1969, Cutler and Gross has built a reputation for distinctive, beautifully made eyewear. They’re the kind of frames that people who really love glasses tend to notice.

And now, you can find it right here in Coffs Harbour!

At Lens Lounge, we’re proud to be the only stockist of Cutler and Gross in Coffs Harbour, bringing a level of eyewear craftsmanship to the Jetty that you’d traditionally expect to find in the bigger cities.

This isn’t just another designer frame.

There are plenty of glasses brands out there. What drew us to Cutler and Gross was that the frames feel genuinely different.

The design is bold without simply being loud. The proportions are considered. The acetate has depth. And the finishing is the sort of thing you appreciate even more when you pick a frame up and look closely.

Cutler and Gross frames are handcrafted in Italy, with an enormous amount of attention going into the shaping, finishing and polishing of each frame.

And that's important to us.

At Lens Lounge, we don't choose eyewear simply because a logo looks good on the side of a frame. We look at the design, the materials, the construction, the finishing and, most importantly, whether it's something we'd genuinely be excited to put on someone's face.

Cutler and Gross absolutely passed that test.

Why bring Cutler and Gross to Coffs Harbour?

Because we don't think you should have to leave Coffs Harbour to find interesting eyewear.

One of the reasons Lens Lounge exists is because we felt there was room for something different in the local eyewear landscape.

Not more of the same.

Not rows of predictable frames.

But independent eyewear, considered design and brands that you might normally expect to find in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane.

Cutler and Gross is exactly that kind of brand.

It's for the person who doesn't just see glasses as something they need to wear.

It's for someone who notices the shape, the colour, the weight, the texture and the tiny details. Someone who might walk into a room and immediately notice someone's glasses.

Basically, if you're the sort of person who has opinions about eyewear, you'll probably understand the appeal.

Craftsmanship you can actually see.

One of the things we love most about Cutler and Gross is that the craftsmanship isn't hidden away behind a marketing story.

You can see it.

Look closely at the acetate and you'll notice the depth and variation. Look at the edges and you'll see how much work has gone into creating those sculpted shapes. Run your fingers over the frame and you'll feel the difference in the finishing.

This is eyewear designed to be looked at closely.

And that's part of what makes the brand so interesting.

A really beautiful frame doesn't necessarily need to shout. Sometimes it's the details that give it away.

A different kind of luxury eyewear.

For us, luxury isn't simply about putting a designer name on a frame and charging more for it.

It's about how something is made, how it feels, how it looks and how much thought has gone into it.

That's why Cutler and Gross fits so naturally into Lens Lounge.

We're interested in eyewear with personality. Frames with craftsmanship. Designs that feel a little less obvious.

And yes, some of the frames come with a price tag that makes people do a double take.

But when you understand what's involved in making them, you start to see the frame a little differently.

Cutler and Gross, now in Coffs Harbour.

We think it's pretty exciting that a brand with this kind of history and reputation is now available right here on the Jetty.

You don't need to drive to Sydney to try on Cutler and Gross.

You don't need to browse a city boutique to find something genuinely different.

You can come into Lens Lounge, take your time, try them on and see the craftsmanship for yourself.

And because we're independent, we're not interested in putting everyone into the same frame.

We'll help you find the one that actually feels like you.

Come and see the collection.

The Cutler and Gross collection is available exclusively at Lens Lounge in Coffs Harbour.

If you're someone who appreciates beautiful eyewear, quality materials and proper craftsmanship, come in and have a look.

You might find your next pair of glasses.

Or you might just find yourself becoming slightly obsessed with eyewear.

We won't judge.
