The Bouvier eyeglasses by Erker’s 1879, which is a sharp cat-eye silhouette that radiates femininity and confidence. Its narrow rectangular shape, complemented by thick rims and a sleek, straight brow, creates a harmonious blend of vintage elegance and modern sophistication.
The Bouvier eyeglasses by Erker’s 1879 are a striking homage to Virginia Bouvier, the esteemed sales representative who served the North Carolina territory with dedication and passion. This bold design reflects her vibrant spirit, offering a timeless yet daring statement in eyewear. Each detail is meticulously designed to make a bold impression while maintaining effortless wearability.
As part of Erker’s Special Reserve Collection, the Bouvier is more than just a pair of glasses—it’s a piece of history. Adorned with intricate insignias that celebrate the Erker family’s legacy in St. Louis, every frame is crafted with heritage and storytelling in mind.
To ensure exclusivity, each of the 4 color blends are custom-designed for this model and produced in a limited edition of just 100 pieces per color, making the Bouvier a true collector’s item.
Handcrafted with precision and care, the Bouvier eyeglasses are perfect for those who appreciate individuality, artistry, and a connection to history. With its bold design and one-of-a-kind craftsmanship, this frame is destined to be a treasured addition to any eyewear collection.
