Kirk Originals design their eyewear in the UK and it's made in the Jura region of France using fine Italian acetates. Relaunched last year, Kirk Originals was seen on the likes of Oasis, Gary Oldman and Anthony Hopkins in the early nineties. Much of the collection has a retro feel and, under new ownership, it's rediscovering its original purpose in interpreting vintage styles for modern wear.
