Introducing J. F. Rey’s “Pixel Concept” Stainless Steel Eyeglass Frames

Orange "Pixel Concept" frames by J. F. Rey

JF Rey, a French optical company, explains the “Pixel concept” this way: It “draws its inspiration directly from the world of graphic arts: The frames are treated with an exclusive photoengraving technique resulting in a rich, polished finish that fuses color gradations and pictorial asymmetrical patterns directly into the stainless steel.”

If that’s sounds like a mouthful, just remember to ask for the cool new frames at Art and Science of Eyewear that seem to change color intensity depending on where the viewer is standing!

In search of children’s glasses with a Zebra pattern?

A little girl walked into our Art and Science of Eyewear Lafayette, CA’s boutique with her mother recently, and asked — with the confidence that only a child can have when she believes totally in the possibility that something she really wants does actually exist:

“Do you have zebra glasses?”

Celebrating Lincoln’s Spectacles – Yes, the Tall Guy Wore Reading Glasses

FacebookEmailTumblrShare

This website has info about Abraham Lincoln's Reading GlassesDo you wear readers? So did President Lincoln.

Love this quote from the March 8, 1961 edition of the “Chicago Tribune” posted on Antique Spectacles, talking about the President-elect’s inauguration:

“All being seated, Senator Baker, of Oregon, rose and said: ‘Fellow citizens, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, will now proceed to deliver his inaugural address.’ Mr. Lincoln rose, calm, collected and serene in manner, and, with a preliminary glance over his vast and imposing auditory, put on his spectacles and began to read…”

It’s a scene many of us play out in our own lives — at work, at restaurants, everywhere we need to read. The difference is that we’re free to pick from a seemingly endless selections of shapes, colors, and materials so that our glasses can reflect our personal style in a really individual way.

Still — if Lincoln had wanted a new pair just like the old ones? We could have come close. Classic is always in.
