Making a good pair of glasses is no easy task. But we believe in both quality and fair pricing - so we’re taking a modern approach to production and retail.
Our glasses are made with the same premium materials as the jaw-droppingly expensive frames in designer boutiques. Likewise, they’re also handcrafted, hand-polished, and fitted with top-of-the-line multi-barrel stainless steel hinges.

We're able to do this with our direct-to-consumer approach.
High-end fashion labels don't create and manufacture their own eyewear. They sell licensing rights to their brand name to a few big corporations, who churn out glasses with the designer logos they've licensed. These are sold on to suppliers or optical shops, compounding a sky-high price markup many times over.
As a local, independent business, we do design work in-house, while we work in direct partnership with our manufacturers, and engage customers directly.
This lets us provide great-looking, top quality prescription glasses at a much lower price.
