About Eyeglasses and Spectacles

Eyeglasses have been a fashion statement for hundreds of years, and are collectible based on style, quality, and historical significance. From dainty opera glasses to the provocative 'cats eye' rims of the mid-1900s, from vintage Oxfords to the Windsor glasses worn by Hemingway, Ghandi and John Lennon... there's a pair out there for everyone.
