Windsor glasses are a type of eyeglasses characterised by circular or nearly circular eyerims and a thin metal frame. The style emerged in the 19th century and first became popular in the 1880s. Traditionally the bridge of Windsor glasses is a "saddle" (a simple, arched piece of metal joining the two eyerims), and hence to prevent the glasses slipping off the face the temples are "riding bow temples" (a strongly arched wire that hooks around the ears); however, in a modern and extended definition, Windsors typically have a bridge with nose pads and gently curved temples.

  • Die Nickelbrille (benannt nach der Fassung, früher aus dem Metall Nickel, heute meist als Retro-Optik aus anderen Materialien gefertigt) ist eine meist runde und häufig auch kleine Form der Brillenfassung. Sie erlebte unter Intellektuellen in den 1970er Jahren, ähnlich wie die Hornbrille, eine neue Phase der modischen Beliebtheit. Bekannte Träger einer Nickelbrille sind bzw. waren der britische Musiker John Lennon, der Fernsehmoderator Peter Lustig, der Snookerspieler Martin Gould und die deutschen Politiker Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg und Gregor Gysi. U. a. nach dem Vorbild John Lennons wurde sie in großer Zahl von DDR-Jugendlichen, die sich der Blueserszene zugehörig fühlten, getragenBeleg fehlt. * George Cope († 1929)Pair of spectacles1879 * John Lennons Nickelbrille und Rechnung (datiert 1978) * Carl Spitzweg († 1885)Selbstbildnisca. 1840 * Mohandas K.
