Jono Hennessy

Jonathan (Jono) Hennessy Sceats started designing eyewear over 30 years ago when he inherited a box of 1950's cats eye frames from his father, CH Filmer Sceats, who opened the first optometrist in Australia's capital in 1925. In the 1980's Jono's creative flair caused an innovation in the optical industry with his label Jonathan Sceats. With a passion for change, superior craftsmanship, and a distinctive culture rooted in Sydney and fashion eyewear, Jonathan Sceats became the number one eyewear brand in Australia. Jono's major influences are art, nature, fashion and design. Careful attention is paid to each aspect of the fit and balance of the frame. The collections include a range of styles from timeless, intellectual pieces to progressive, trendsetting fashion designs. He uses innovative new materials as an excellent example of Australian design that combines quality materials and precision production with personal innovation. Not only is the style original, the fit is exemplary, and you will look and feel fabulous in this fashion forward brand.
