Eyeglass Styles that Stand the Test of Time Since the 1920s

100 Years in the Making (ABOVE)

This year the Kirk & Kirk family celebrate 100 years in optics; 100 years since Sidney and Percy Kirk opened their first London workshop in 1919. To celebrate this milestone, Jason and Karen Kirk have launched The Centena Collection, the highlight of their new Spring/Summer 2019 campaign. The collection is handmade from 10mm acrylic — the lightness of which allows for a substantial frame that weighs next to nothing on the face. It features 10 shapes, each named after a Kirk family member (the Bert, shown), in 10 colors. Campaign images will be circulated through a combination of social media and point of sale, available to stockists, including customized window displays and co-branded in-store posters.
