Brittain Opticians, a long established independent optician in the heart of Harborne, is delighted to announce the arrival of Anne et Valentine eyewear. Known for their bold, intellectual, and refreshingly unconventional designs, the French brand is a celebrated name in the world of premium eyewear – and now, for the first time, it will be available locally in Harborne.
Founded in Toulouse, France, Anne et Valentin has built an international reputation for combining precise craftsmanship with artistic expression. Each frame is handcrafted in France, save for a few titanium models, which are made in Japan because that’s where the best Titanium can be found. The brand focuses on architectural lines, vibrant colours, and striking combinations of acetate and metal. Anne et Valentin champions individuality – creating glasses for thinkers, creatives and design lovers who see their eyewear not just as a necessity, but as a powerful form of self expression.
“We’re thrilled to be bringing Anne et Valentin to our shelves”, says Matt Rose, Director at Brittain Opticians.“Their frames are more than just functional – they’re wearable art. Our patients have been asking for more distinctive, high quality eyewear, and this collection delivers exactly that.”
Brittain Opticians has served the Harborne community for over 60 years, offering expert eye care and a carefully curated selection of independent eyewear brands. The addition of Anne et Valentin reflects the practice’s ongoing commitment to providing forward thinking design alongside exceptional service.
The new collection is now available in store, with styles to suit both optical and sun wear needs. Customers will be able to browse a wide range of statement frames and receive personal styling advice from the in-house dispensing team.
To celebrate the launch, Brittain Opticians will be hosting a special preview event this Saturday (16th August), where clients can try the new collection.
For eyewear lovers in Birmingham seeking something different, Brittain Opticians invites you to discover the world of Anne et Valentin – a brand where personality meets precision.
Whether you’re refreshing your look or searching for the perfect pair of frames, that reflect who you are, this is a collection that delivers on both form and function. Visit Brittain Opticians this August and see what happens when design dares to be different.
