Winter may be upon us but that's no excuse for not looking your best
P icture the scene: you're wearing a bespoke made-to-measure Savile Row suit, driving a custom-built supercar en route to the hangar of your interior designed private jet.
Yet you're still wearing 'off the shelf' designer sunglasses.
Not any more. London super eyewear maker Campbell Marson now offer their UHNW clients the option to uniquely tailor a pair of sunglasses to match their UHNW lifestyle.
One such pair, created for a private client in Dubai, was crafted from amboyna burr, one of the rarest woods in the world. Studded with diamonds and 24-carat gold, the £25k pair was custom-designed to match the interior of his supercar.
The brand offers their most discerning clients the chance to incorporate any precious metal or stones. So whether you desire the world's finest Columbian emeralds, the most durable platinum or the rarest Burmese rubies, Campbell Marson will create a pair suited to both the client's aesthetic and lifestyle.
'There is still plenty of appetite for serious luxury items. If you're going to spend £10k on a bespoke Savile Row suit, it seems disproportionate to only spend £250 on a pair of off the shelf sunglasses.' – Alan Fox, MD of Campbell Marson
With a pedigree in wood going back to 1924, Campbell Marson are no newcomers to the luxury market. The company started its career by installing intricate design marquetry floors into some of the most iconic buildings in London, including the Tate Modern and V&A. Yet now their frames adorn some of the wealthiest and most famous faces in the world.
