We are the only optical shop in Rhode Island that sells almost all readers
We have the largest selection of readers in Rhode Island. Readers with flowers, wood veneers, tamisé (gold and silver leaf) and polymer clay (with matching earrings.) And "everything" readers have a bit of each finish on them, like an everything bagel. They are professional quality, that means you can put in your prescription. They are unusual colors and shapes so take a look and you will see. We have frames that have a single flower or many, frames that are made of velvet or metal.
When you wear our frames you will have to get used to the compliments
We're located through the archway at 3-23 Acorn Street. Drive through the archway in the building and park in the back near our tiny house. We're officially in the loading dock, to the right of the RISD loading dock. (We even had a ribbon cutting with Mayor Brett Smiley!)
