Paul Bettany and his wife Jennifer Connelly have been longtime customers of Silver Lining Opticians, and Paul shows off his most recent acquisition (Barton Perreira Skyler in Black with custom blue lenses) at the Montblanc Benefit in NYC.
Montblanc presents the special 10th anniversary production of THE 24 HOUR PLAYS ON BROADWAY, an annual benefit event produced by the 24 Hour Company and Freestyle Picture Company for Urban Arts Partnership. THE 24 HOUR PLAYS ON BROADWAY attracts some of entertainment’s biggest names as they join forces to participate in an extreme rite of theater: writing, directing, and performing 6 original short plays, all in just 24 hours. This year’s production will feature a special 10th anniversary theme to celebrate the immense success of this partnership and the thousands of students who have benefited from programs made possible by this fundraiser.
We are pleased to see the results of our long time relationship with Debra Messing in her new NBC show Smash. Debra fell in love with Barton Perreira’s Lucky frame here at the shop and continues to wear it both on and off screen.

Great photo of John Lennon in round metal sunglasses with a beautiful bridge detail. If you want a pair we’ve got some amazing dead stock from the 1930s.
