Curry & Paxton made ophthalmic instruments in the Victorian age.
By the 1960s they had developed a chain of optician stores and famously supplied Michael Caine with his spectacles for the
Harry Palmer films and the Italian Job.

In 2020 following a period of dormancy, Curry & Paxton was reborn on its 100th anniversary. Paying great respects to its impressive past and reference to its unimpeachable archive, it serves as a men’s and women’s eyewear brand offering spectacles and sunglasses for the discerning, affable and style-savvy who aren’t afraid to make a statement nor appear incognito.
