CW Dixey & Son has added eight new styles to its Chartwell eyewear collection, which for the first time now includes two sunglass styles.

The British heritage brand, famous for adorning the face of Winston Churchill, launched its first eight-strong collection in 2011 (Optician 16.09.11) and the company’s director Simon Palmer said the new models, designed once again by Scottish eyewear designer Andy Sweet, were very much a development of shapes in the original collection.
