About Us

The History of E.B. Meyrowitz

Mr. Emil Bruno Meyrowitz born on October 20, 1852, in Greifenhagen, Prussia, was a pioneer in optics. Throughout the course of his life he opened practices in Paris, New York as well as London. Meyrowitz started its legacy by designing its own line of optical and medical products for a distinguished and international clientele. More than one hundred years on, the name of Meyrowitz still lives and so does its unique spirit.

The spectacles and sunglasses on display are seen merely as a starting point at E.B. Meyrowitz. The true mastery of the optician comes alive on commission of frames being made-to-measure. We are dedicated to creating the perfect set of spectacles for our clientele.

Service at Meyrowitz caters to a client's every need. From the initial consultation to the finished product, clients are expected to feel as proud as the Griffin, the emblem of Meyrowitz, as he resides over his own frame. Offering the finest acetate, buffalo horn and other rare materials, our made-to-measure spectacles are designed to a client's exact expectations.
