Olefson Art Optical is a unique mobile tiny house studio located at 3 Acorn Street in Providence, where Laurie Olefson crafts one-of-a-kind handmade eyeglass frames. These frames, some paired with matching earrings, are suitable for prescription lenses and stand out for their quirky, deliberately imperfect design. Laurie, a former magazine art director, creates each frame by hand using cellulose acetate, employing techniques such as cutting, printing, hammering, and polishing inside a custom-built studio featuring circular windows inspired by John Lennon’s glasses. The business, run alongside her husband Victor Olefson, recently relocated from New Jersey and aims to contribute to Providence’s vibrant small business scene. Their distinctive eyewear is also available at craft and fine arts festivals, but customers can conveniently find a colorful selection at their tiny house studio. The Olefsons emphasize their unique niche in “jewelry for the face,” offering local shoppers a creative and artistic alternative to conventional eyewear. Contact details and social media are available for those interested in exploring their handmade frames.
