Claire Goldsmith is the 4th generation of Goldsmith running the family business.


She is the great granddaughter of Oliver Goldsmith, the most famous name in British optical design.

Staying true to the brand's heritage, Claire relaunched the company in 2006 with the plan to finely balance old and new by bringing a fresh aesthetic, in keeping with a classic timeless look.

The CG Legacy collection follows this plan. It is classic but with a modern twist, and pays homage to the spirit of vintage styling forming truly modern classics.
