DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to spectacles, and in particular, to spectacles having decorations.
BACKGROUND ART
In the spectacles having rims for supporting the peripheral portions of the lenses, it has been difficult hitherto to secure decorations to the rims because the rims are thin.
The present invention makes it possible to secure decorations to the rims and thereby provides spectacles with decorations having high ornamental effects.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is characterized by securing a decoration to a rim in spectacles having the rim for fixing lenses.
The decorations are secured to a predetermined portion of the rim so as not to move.
In addition, the securing of the decorations is carried out by using elongated flexible material.
Moreover, the securing of the decorations may be also carried out by soldering, welding or bonding.
Furthermore, the decoration is secured by securing means provided on the rim, and the securing means may comprise a structure having an elastic engaging piece which elastically engages the decoration. Additionally, the decoration can be secured by inserting it between the rim and lenses.
