Tortoise Shell frames have been popular for decades. This versatile and bold style has been a symbol of refined sophistication and style since the early 1900s. Each pair of tortoise shell glasses have a unique pattern in marbled shades of brown, black, yellow, red, blue. This pattern mimics the patterning of tortoise shells, but our frames are made from durable, high-quality celluloid acetate.
As an expert in vintage-inspired eyewear, Vint & York specializes in recreating stunning styles from the past and turning them into fresh, modern designs. Our collection of tortoise shell eyewear includes round, cat eye, geometric, and oversized silhouettes that are a blend of old-school and modern aesthetics.
Our owner, Larisa Ginzburg, founded Vint & York in 2012. Her initial inspiration came from the 1920s–a time when artistic self-expression was truly celebrated across all mediums of fashion and art. Built on that inspiration, Vint & York melds the essence of nostalgia with contemporary, classic design. We take a vintage aesthetic and reimagine it into modern frames that are stylish, well-made, and timeless.
Vint & York views eyewear as a form of self-expression. Our eyewear selection features vibrant colors and unique shapes and styles that reflect a desire to break out of the norm and into the extraordinary. At Vint & York, our prescription glasses and sunglasses for women and men are meant to be works of art that complement your unique personality and sense of fashion.
Our eyewear collections are designed right here in the heart of New York City. They are available for purchase online and at our brick-and-mortar store located in the Nolita neighborhood of lower Manhattan. We are proud of the high-quality craftsmanship that goes into every pair of glasses, and we believe quality glasses should be available to everyone at a fair price.
