ABSTRACT:
A jewelry article is adapted for attachment as an extension of the temple arm on conventional eyeglasses. The jewelry extension, or "glasstension", grips the temple arm with an elastic loop portion of a gripping member, and the gripping member in turn supports one or more elongated strands of jewelry type decorations, such as beads and charms. Each glasstension is a unitary piece, with the elongated decorative strands being securely affixed onto the gripping member. In one particular embodiment, the glasstension includes two or more decorative strands, and two additional gripping members attached at or near the ends of two of the decorative strands, allowing the glasstension to be converted from a single sided glasstension to a combined double sided glasstension and eyeglass retainer.
