Preloved glasses: Sustainable, timeless and full of character

25 August 2025  — 

At Frank and Lucie, we believe that true beauty is made to last. Our designer reading glasses are crafted with love, designed to be cherished, and built to endure. But your reading strength evolves over time. That perfect +1.5 might become +2.0 in a few years. So what happens to your beautiful glasses then? Too often, they end up tucked away in a drawer. A shame. Especially when they still have so much to offer.

That is why we created Frank and Lucie Preloved. A conscious way to give your reading glasses a second life and to make someone else happy with timeless style at a gentler price.

Why preloved reading glasses?

Reading glasses are perfect for re-use. They are worn gently, often remain in excellent condition, and never lose their elegance or charm. A well-kept Frank and Lucie frame is ready for a new chapter, full of personality, history, and design integrity.

Lucie cares deeply about sustainability. It is not just a trend, it is a mindset. Choosing preloved is a thoughtful act. By extending the life of your reading glasses, we reduce waste, minimise our footprint and make elegant eyewear more accessible.

Second hand, but never second best

We clean, refresh and relist every frame in our Preloved Collection with the same care as our new arrivals. From affordable luxury to eco-conscious fashion, Frank and Lucie Preloved blends character, quality and thoughtful living.

A second life full of character

As Lucie would say, beauty is meant to be shared.
