Ritesh
‘Best opticians in London! Ritesh is an absolute pleasure to deal with – informative and polite. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.’ – Alex Crichton
Earlier this year, at the same time as managing the renovation of Aristone’s Victorian premises on North End Road, owner Ritesh was also hard at work designing the popular Fulham optician’s signature brand of bespoke frames.
The ao collection was launched this Spring and customer reaction was very positive, with stock soon having to be re-ordered. Clearly bitten by the design bug, Ritesh returned to the drawing board and this month the second ao collection will be available. It comprises 30 new acetate and metal frames for men and women. ‘I suppose you could call me a retailer and designer now,’ he smiles.
Aristone’s core stock includes an extensive selection of frames, from designer names to a huge variety of prescription lenses. ‘Rather than cherry-picking from many brands, I prefer to showcase the full range from the likes of Ray-Ban, Tom Ford, Wolf Eyewear and Lindberg,’ explains Ritesh.
‘In October we’ll have the updated Tom Ford collection and the following month we will be one of the first opticians to receive AI-powered Meta Ray-Ban display glasses. I have tried them and it was an amazing experience. An in-lens display allows you to view real-time information, access navigation, translate text, listen to music and take photos and videos. Control is via a wristband and the glasses have Ray-Ban’s iconic look; it’s a premium product but it could be the Christmas must-have.’
Ritesh recently celebrated 16 years running Aristone. ‘My philosophy has always been the same. If someone has a good experience, they will come back and recommend us. We look forward to welcoming customers old and new – we will have a style of frame for every taste.’
