It’s not often you get the chance to see the complete range of one of the world’s most iconic eyewear brands in Herefordshire. But that’s just what is happening next week at BBR Optometry when we host a special day featuring Anne et Valentin.

We’re pleased to be welcoming the UK brand ambassador to our St Owen Street practice on Tuesday, 4 September who will be on hand to show and demonstrate the range of handmade spectacles.

“We’re very pleased to have what is a rare opportunity to demonstrate the complete range of spectacles from Anne et Valentine,” said Daniel Read, practice manager. “Also, customers will be able to undergo style consultations during the day.”

“We have many customers who love the acclaimed range, and we know many more will be amazed at their unique design.”

Anne et Valentin was formed by the couple in 1984, with its design and handmade manufacturing based in Toulouse, France.

“We create nothing that doesn’t already exist within you. We make eyewear – it’s in our blood. We believe a frame should not only flatter and complement but express who you are. Our purpose is to express the essence of every individual through their choice of eyewear. Each time you put on your frame, you present yourself to the world just as you are” – Anne et Valentin.

The practice will be open from 8.45am until 7pm for the unique brand open day, giving customers a chance to call in during the special extended hours.

Frames designed by Anne et Valentin are made from a range of materials, including acetate, metal and a combo. It also has its Sun and Superkids ranges.

The frames are designed to be of the highest quality while simple in design, with a mix of geometric cuts, colours and materials.

Anyone wanting a consultation is recommended to book in advance, although some walk-in opportunities will be available.

Telephone 01432 265030 to arrange an individual consultation on the day.
