Why be uncool with a glasses chain / eyeglass leash that makes you look older than you really are? If you are anything like me, you will want something that is a bit more youthful, such as this ball chain style eyeglass leash. I actually came up with this design for myself--I was looking for something a bit "younger," casual, and maybe a touch industrial.
This is an extremely lightweight and flexible eyeglass chain / eyeglass leash / lanyard. It will blend in very well with most contemporary casual jewelry and takes up very little space--it will easily fit into your eyeglass case, or even tuck into your blue jeans pocket, unlike many chains of this sort.
Order the leash in the main photo and get a peridot green colored wire highlight at the temples. Or, if you prefer, you get to decide what color highlight wire is used at the temple. Match it to your jewelry, or match it to your eyeglass frames. Select the peridot, or you may opt for your favorite color from the choices shown in the last two photos -- black, silver, burgundy, gold, taupe, purple, dusty rose, or peridot green. Although not shown in the photos, there are also new colors -- copper, bright red, and hematite gray options also available in the drop down.
This leash measures approx. 24 inches. I suggest this length for women who are 5'2" or less, or those who like to hold their glasses higher up on the chest. If you are a tall women, it can be ordered with an extension to 30 inches--you may choose this also from the dropdown menu.
If you add a hook or swivel connector to connect the ends, this can also be used as a lanyard or ID badge holder. The ball chain and end pieces are silver plated and the detail wires are either of silver plate, gold plate, or colored copper.
This will arrive in its own organza pouch, perfect for storing or for gift giving.
This leash is probably best if used with narrow metal frames or standard plastic frames, as shown in the photo. Please note if you have glasses with very chunky arms, the elastic will not stretch that far. Please see photos for an example of the type of glasses this is best used with.
