Started our business in January 2022: www.azyrspecs.com
We source vintage frames from around the world dating from as far back as 1960 and replace the lenses with brand new, UV-protected, scratch-resistant lenses. Sustainability is a key aspect of our business, where we practice “no waste” everywhere we can. The original lenses are saved for a bigger future project, the vintage frames are replenished and restored, and all our packaging is recycled. We are eco-friendly from beginning to end.
With a background in costume design, we understand the importance of intricate details. The role they can play in piecing together a look, or communicating volumes without saying a single word.
The idea for AZYR Specs came when working on set for a movie based in 1975. The glasses truly accelerated the characters wearing them back into a different decade and they looked so good. Most of these glasses were prescription, just used as props, and I found my idea.
