Prodesign Introduces Essential 1258-63

Prodesign Introduces Essential 1258-63

Slender shapes in refreshing two-tone colors The shapes of this collection are exquisite. You’ll still see the influence of the strong retro-wave, but this collection has gone in a much lighter direction, abandoning the very heavy look of the usual retro collections. The lightness of the frames fit very well with the natural lines of the face, creating a harmony between the frame and the face. The colors that the designer has chosen are subtle and soft with gradients ranging from dark to very light in the same color scheme, supporting the color schemes also found in the face. The exclusive color gradients of this collection are very hard to obtain, and are best achieved through a difficult process of coloring the frames by hand, one at a time. The gradient coloration of the metal is repeated in the colors of the acetate end tips to obtain a uniformity of the entire frame design. 6 shapes, 4 feminine and 2 masculine. All in 3 to 4 colors each. For more information please call us or visit our website at http://prodesigndenmark.com/ US: +1 800 654 6099

The Power of Words

The Power of Words

It’s that time again. Time to reflect on our business over the past year. What are we doing right? What can we do to make our business better? And, what can we do to better assist our customers? What can we do to make a difference? For ClearVision, it’s always been about building relationships. Showing we care. For us, it’s about giving back to the people who have been here with us from the start. Giving back — to those who’ve had our back since we opened our doors in 1949. And to the ones who’ve joined us along the way. Many of these relationships have been built on the power of words. Words that keep us thinking out of the box. We want to be the provider you want to work with. So we listen to your words. And we use them to move forward. Get better. Make a difference. And while we sometimes hear what we’re not doing right and what we need to improve, we’re happy that more often, words tell us what we’re doing right. We don’t even have to ask. These are just some of the words that keep us going: “You are hands down our favorite, biggest optical partner. Nobody does what you do. You are huge to us. I can’t thank you enough for making such a big difference...
