Warber Parker, an online retailer of prescription glasses and sunglasses, partnered with NYC jewelry designer Roxanne Assoulin on a range of beaded eyewear chains that can be added to its frames.
The chains are available on Warby Parker's web store as a limited edition release, and come in three variations that range from versatile neutrals, to vivid multi-colored designs. All of the chains combine different materials and colors, with each adding a fun twist to any pair of glasses.
In celebration of the collaborative launch, Warby Parker and Roxanne Assoulin also announced that they would be making a donation to Girl Up, a UN-founded organization that advances girls' rights, skills, and opportunities to help them become leaders.
