Jonathan Adler extended his home interiors style and philosophy to women’s eyewear and there’s been no looking back…
What makes a frame special? The material, the gorgeous and flattering color, the creativity in the shape, or a clever combination of all three. As well as the person or brand behind it and their legacy of design….
Jonathan Adler: Potter, Designer and Author of a Series of Happy Chic Lifestyle Guides
With an upbeat, positive style representing modern American glamour, Jonathan Adler began his artistic career as a potter. By 1998 he had expanded into retail with his first lifestyle store, featuring pottery, textiles, furniture and products for the home – and the business grew rapidly into a home décor empire.
Today his extensive range of fashion and style accessories includes scarves, bags, wallets, socks and women’s eyewear. Born out of his own love for specs, his collection of sunglasses, readers and optical frames launched in 2015 and evolved and grew with global success.
What to Look For…
The frames are hot on quirky details, with special custom acetates and a palette of glamorous colors which offer a fresh, elegant style with Adler’s signature twist. Custom Jonathan Adler patterns and innovative details are enhanced by campaign hardware used on the designer’s signature furniture and feature the classic JA branding highlighted on small circular temple tips.
