Redux
It begins with a word. Redux. To bring back. To revive.
A word that floats around the Cubitts workshop, as offcut acetate is gathered from another day’s spectacle making. A word that tumbles through the stores as much loved frames are brought in for donation or repair or reglaze.
For this three century old industry is stuck in its ways. An industry that prioritises mass production over durability, sales over repairs, profit over progress. Something needs to change.
Our commitment to REDUX means embracing waste materials, frame donation, and repairs. Initiatives that seek to prolong the lives of magnificent spectacles. To give them a fresh start on a fresh face.
