Britannia

Cubitts

£175

A modern interpretation of the enduring shield silhouette, Britannia proves that the strongest designs rarely need embellishment. Broad across the brow with generous lenses and softly squared proportions, it draws on the assured simplicity of the late twentieth century. Sculptural without feeling heavy, it wears with an effortless confidence.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as CUBITTS KX LIMITED, number 08254044. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
