What glasses suit my face?
Made to measure and Bespoke
Few makers offer true bespoke. At Cubitts you can choose between two paths:
- Made to Measure. Cubitts silhouette refined to your exact measurements and specifications
- Bespoke. Completely new design, created from scratch for you.
Both result in a one-of-a-kind frame that reflects its wearer; the difference is whether we start from a Cubitts design or a blank page.
We begin with a consultation and a precise facial scan. We record every contour, fit the frame to submillimetre precision, and then craft your frame by hand in our King’s Cross workshop. We use only from the finest materials: premium acetate by Mazzuchelli (Italy) or Takiron (Japan), genuine water buffalo horn, and OBE hardware.
Each frame is cut, shaped, and polished to fit your features and your character, and finished with a custom engraving.
