At John Rose Eye Care in Kingston upon Thames, we’re delighted to announce the arrival of The House of Spectacles, an independent British eyewear brand bringing a fresh perspective to the world of spectacles.

Designed and handcrafted in London, The House of Spectacles is a brand with a genuine passion for individuality, creativity and traditional craftsmanship. Founded on the belief that glasses should fit you, not the other way around, it challenges the idea that eyewear should be mass-produced in standard sizes.

Eyewear with individuality at its heart

What makes The House of Spectacles particularly special is its approach to design and fit. Rather than simply creating beautiful frames, the brand places equal importance on how they feel when worn. Its Made to Measure collection offers an impressive 42 size combinations, allowing frames to be tailored to individual face shapes and proportions.

From distinctive everyday styles to bold statement pieces, every design has its own personality, combining contemporary British style with a commitment to quality and comfort.

British craftsmanship worth celebrating

At a time when so much eyewear is mass-produced overseas, The House of Spectacles is proudly keeping the art of British spectacle making alive. Every frame is designed and handcrafted in its own London workshop, with a real emphasis on attention to detail, artistry and considered design.

The brand also offers bespoke creations and limited-edition collections, making it an exciting choice for anyone looking for something a little different from the ordinary.
