Serving Washington D.C., Montgomery County, and Northern Virginia
Some people will wear one frame until the end of its life and some people treat their eyewear not only as a working necessity, but also as a fashion accessory. Eyeglass frames can change your look, making your appearance more youthful, more mature, more commanding or even more playful. Eyewear can be a conversation piece, or with a luxury frame such as Gold & Wood, can serve as a piece of jewelry. Whatever your needs, we are here to find the frames that fit you perfectly.
Frame fitting and adjustments take patience and skill. We offer a vast inventory to choose from, and the opticians to guide you to the style and fit that is right for you.
When it comes to statement making, it is hard to top Alain Mikli, Theo, Nao Ned, and Lafont - some of our funky, fashion forward lines.
Alain Mikli frames have unique colors and shapes that you will not find in any other line. Considered to be some of the strongest frames on the market, every Mikli frame model is hand-crafted in Alain Mikli’s Paris studio, truly making each frame a work of art, for the people who want that dramatic look. Theo also speaks for itself. If you want to be a little eccentric and playful, Theo is your frame. Each Theo frame has a personality of its own and radiates the spirit of its family-owned company headquartered in Antwerp, Belgium.
Beusoliel and Lafont are two French lines that offer softer looks, with classic styles yet still give the wearer a bit of an edge. Beausoliel are made from three-year old aged Zyl, an acetate material made from natural fibers at the Mazzucchelli factory Italy. The frames are hand-assembled in Frederic Beausoliel’s factory in France.
When it comes to US designed frames – Robert Marc is one of our most popular lines. Based in New York City, designer Robert Marc is known for frames with subtle shades of browns, blacks, or vibrant colored tortoises on the front, with differing colors on the back. Robert is always surprising us with new colors, but one thing remains a constant - his signature hinge consisting of inlaid metal with chrome edges and a chrome dot.
For women who want a little bling and love name brands, we offer Tom Ford. Tom Ford is a powerhouse in the fashion industry, and their frames radiate elegance and comfort.
We offer some of the newest concepts in frame design to include screwless, rimless and titanium frames.
Straight out of the heart of Berlin, Mykita forgoes the use of screws and offers a stunning example of what happens when you combine German ingenuity and modern artistry. Made from stainless steel, Mykita frames are extremely lightweight and exceedingly comfortable.
Rimless frames are extremely popular and we carry a wide array of styles from which to choose. From casual to more luxurious, our rimless frame selection includes Silhouette, Lunor, Gold & Wood, and Lindberg. With the majority of our rimless frames, you have the freedom to create a frame truly unique to you by choosing the hardware and lens shape of your liking.
Silhouette and Lindberg are popular rimless frames that are titanium-based, adding strength and durability. In place of screws, these rimless lines utilize rubber sleeves inserted into each lens through drill holes, which prevents a lens from cracking and adds additional strength.
Our more luxurious rimless models offer style that stands out and quality worth paying for. Lunor frames offer distinctiveness because of the “W” bridge that is specifically shaped and yields no nose pads. Gold & Wood combine precious metal and wood with spring hinges to create a modern sophisticated frame.
More and more designers are turning to titanium to make frames that are not only strong and light, but hypoallergenic as well. Voorthuis is the exclusive provider of Zero G titanium frames in the Washington DC area. Designed in California and crafted in Japan – Zero G frames are made from surgical grade titanium, making them 40% lighter than stainless steel frames. With hinges designed without screws or soldering points, Zero G guarantees the spindles will never come loose or fall out.
For those who want to look great, yet still convey subtlety with a more classic look, we’ve got you covered. Oliver Peoples is one of our largest lines for both sunglasses and optical frames, fitting a wide range of people with their classic, yet modern look and feel.
Another exceptional line that we have recently added to our inventory is Masunaga. Since 1905, Masunaga have been hand crafting stylish frames in the heart of Japan, offering vintage inspired elements with a fashion forward contemporary design. Delicate engraving on the bridge piece and temples are reminiscent of 1920’s jewelry details.
We offer choice at Voorthuis. We take great pride when you allow us to help you choose a frame that not only meets your eye care needs, but looks great on you as well.
