Jim, I used to get catalogs from an upscale men's clothier. They had upscale blazers and suits. I think they even made bespoke to suits. One of their specialties was horn glasses. The owner wore them and modeled them in the catalogs. I want to say Silvermanns or something similar. Perhaps one of the gents know who I am talking about.

The glasses were classy and expensive.

Are you talking about Ben Silver? They have a nice selection. My go-to catalog for regimental ties.

I was also looking at the frames available on the webpage of the guy who makes horn brush handles. I wonder how they are?

Thank you. That's exactly the place.

Yes, the Ben Silver Collection. I'm rather fond of the Lafont Dark Tortoise Pantheon. Some of their vintage frames look fantastic too.

I believe the Japanese company Saki makes genuine horn eyeglass frames. For traditional Americana it is often hard to beat Japan.
