Just landed yesterday: LUXOL DESIGN and ESSEQUADRO, two eyewear collections from small factories in Italy… we are proud to be the 1st optical shop in the USA to be able to carry them!
Here are some highlights from the 1st collection, LUXOL:
The acetate designs offer rich color options in matte finishes with layered accent colors:
Luxol also has some interesting colorful metal designs in both thinner eye wire…
& thicker sheet-cut designs…
Stay tuned for Part II: Essequadro preview…!

Meet Sayer Theiss. Apart from being one of the cutest kids ever in glasses, Sayer is also one heck of an adorable model for his talented mom’s art & apparel design business, klt:works.
Sayer has been wearing glasses since he was a wee bitty 3 year old… this is his 3rd pair from us!

This 5 1/2 year old is also a budding rockstar: learning & playing electric guitar is one of his current past times. Sayer says the new glasses make him a better player… his guitar instructor not only agrees, but thinks his glasses make him “look like vintage Elton John”.
We are delighted to see how we can contribute to greatness in the making 🙂

In observance of the Thanksgiving Day tradition, Eyes on Fremont will be closed this Thursday, November 28th so we can delight in feasting with friends and family. We hope you get to enjoy the same!
We WILL be back to normal business hours on Friday 10-6pm and Saturday 10-5pm. Although we don’t participate in the Black Friday frenzy, expect it to be busy in the shop this weekend….

The marriage of two extraordinary forces is a splendid thing to witness. So when our longtime patron Patti chose this bold & animated new style by ROGER EYE DESIGNS, we were taken by the AWESOMENESS of it. This is one of Rogers’ boldest models yet, but Patti’s confidence pulls it off eloquently.
By the way (if you didn’t already know), Patti Warashina has been an accomplished artist for decades. Having taught ceramics at University of Washington for 25 years, she just finished a show at the Bellevue Arts Museum. Just like Patti in person, her work is quirky, delightful & fascinating.

We just got these beautiful new frame styles from Motif Eyewear! The brushed & patterned neutrals as well as the tortoise variations make these everyday contemporary shapes more expressive. The metal temples & combo looks add a sophisticated touch to an otherwise timeless look.
Come in this weekend to see them… we are open Saturday 10-5pm!

Kaelen found herself an extraordinary frame. The handmade, one-of-a-kind style is from a small eyewear collection in Poland called Auster.
We love the layers of green, ebony, and crystal framing her baby blues in this vintage inspired shape, but the cherry on top is definitely the rhinestone detail. Way to add a little sparkle to your everyday Kaelen!
