}} Cubitts, established in 2012, is a eyeglass manufacturer based in Kings Cross, London, England. The company creates handcrafted frames, lenses, glasses, and sunglasses, constructed with custom pins that secure the acetate based on a rivet designed by Lewis Cubitt, one of the three Cubitt brothers who inspired the brand name. The pin drilling process is done by hand, and takes time to perfect. It allows hinges to be easily maintained. The brand has seven stores in the UK, and is expanding to other areas. Four of the stores offer bespoke and made-to-measure services. Cubitts also run spectacle making classes at their King's Cross workshop[1]. In July 2018, Cubitts launched a charity cleaning cloth designed by an English artist Tracey Emin.[2] The brand has collaborated with British heritage brand Sunspel on a capsule collection of sunglasses[3], and with fashion designer Phoebe English on two pairs of custom sustainable sunglasses, made from their workshop's waste[4]. In November 2018, Cubitts launched an exhibition charting London's six hundred year history of spectacles[5] at the St James's Market Pavilion. It included a frame made from items 'mudlarked' from the River Thames[6]. See also
