Garrett Leight, the son of Oliver Peoples founder Larry Leight, has branched out to create a namesake brand of his own: Garrett Leight California Optical (GLCO for short). GLCO is laid back, sophisticated, and inspired by his California surroundings. There is a timeless aesthetic to the entire collection. It�s not over complicated, just perfectly executed classic 20th century American styles with a modern twist. Having come from an optical background gives Leight the unique ability to pay attention to the subtle details which makes any frame just that much better: such as the fit, proportion, and comfort. Each frame also boasts some great technical features.
The Westminster is the progression of a squared off classic mid-century American design. Authentically constructed with antiqued silver plaques, hand drilled riveted hinges, and custom GLCO details.
Hand drilled riveted 5 barrel hinges plated in gold and silver.
