There’s a reason the aviator has been around for nearly a century - it just works. What have done with this piece is take that proven shape and build it properly.

Aerospace-grade Japanese titanium, polarised lenses, hydrophobic coatings. Even the stamped pattern on the temple tips and nose pads are there for fit, not just looks.

A seriously well-made pair of sunglasses that look effortlessly right on Ian ✌️

SALT. is one of those brands that makes you realise how much is usually left out.

Come in and try a pair. You'll feel the difference 🕶

Joan came knowing what she liked - and knowing she wanted something a little different.

For everyday a slim titanium piece in the most irresistible tone. A rich, almost oceanic blue that works beautifully on her 💙

For sunglasses, she chose - hand-polished Italian acetate in a warm mottled tortoiseshell. Heritage design with a contemporary edge.

Two very different frames. Both absolutely Joan.

Christina in

And honestly, what a pairing.

Sculpted from 10mm thick Italian acetate with bold, sinuous curves - L.G.R is for those who appreciates craft, and Christina wears them beautifully 🖤

Part of the Palmerie Collection, inspired by the landscapes and light of Africa. Every frame built by hand in Italy, by the same artisan families who've been crafting these for generations. Five-barrel hinges, hand-polished acetate, the details are everything - laser engraved temples even tell a story.

Curious? Back open Monday - come and try for yourself 📍

Jason collected two versions of a design that has been part of since the very first collection.

His sunglasses are crafted in a slightly chunkier acetate, while the everyday is pared back in a finer profile. Both carry a square silhouette, keyhole bridge feature, five-barrel hinges and functional rivets.

Designed in California and handcrafted in Japan, combining perfect craftsmanship with timeless aesthetics.

Colour as a signature...

At Ørgreen, colour tells a story. Each palette is developed in house.

Every tone chosen to enhance the design, not compete with it.

The best in Scandinavian design combined with Japanese craftsmanship.

Not all faces are the same, and neither are the lifestyles behind them.

Your eyewear should suit your everyday needs as well as your personal style.

We look at the full picture - face shape, yes, but also your personality, colouring, and what your glasses need to handle.

We carry a considered collection from some of the world's finest eyewear designers, chosen for how they're wear, as much as how they look.

Come find your perfect pair 👓 🕶

Everyone needs a and here's Kathleen in her first ⚡️

A fine steel construction with that subtle "frame within a frame "idea running through it. The outer rim finished in a dark slate, while a second inner line in a raspberry tone tracks inside.

The perfect balance of design and creativity - unmistakably Theo 🚀

Enjoy your Easter - back Tuesday for all your eyewear and eyecare needs 👓 🕶
