We've teamed up with interior designer and stylist Sooz Gordon and Spex Pistols owner Richard to give his vintage eyewear boutique a Scaramanga vintage makeover. Richard, has been a lens maker since 1987, and started Spex Pistols 5 years ago after he realised customers craved good service and individuality and to dispel the myth that independent eyewear stores had to be more expensive.

His store is packed with the most amazing array of retro Raybans, vintage wing tips, old school aviators and rows and rows of unusual frames old and new in the most imaginable colours and sizes. His frames are all displayed amongst his eclectic collections of vintage toys, old opthamology books, enamel shop signs and antique industrial furniture. All in all a perfect place to add some of our many pieces. We brought in
vintage cabinets and cupboards, old Bollywood film posters,
antique wooden chests and boxes, old tins and other decorative items.
