Jewelry addicts beware: Today the iconic house of Tiffany & Co. announced they’re tackling a new kind of bling—eyewear. The retailer has partnered with industry veteran Luxottica on a collection of eyeglasses and sunglasses, ranging from sleek, rimless metal to polarized shields and chunky black acrylics. Each frame is decorated with one of nine classic motifs featuring hand-set crystals, and spanning some of the most beloved Tiffany designs, including T&CO, Atlas, 1837, Jazz, and Lace—the last of which, as seen above, features two real diamonds set into the sterling-silver sunburst at the temple, which pushes the price up to $1,100. The collection will arrive in 100 select Tiffany stores in time for the holidays, with a wider launch coming in 2008. Now, beauty can be seen on the eyes of the beholder. Sorry, we couldn’t resist.
