All the while I was dreaming of revel(ry) 🎵

Being able to do what we love while working with people we love is just the cats meow. But doing all of that while drinking a peppermint tea and noshing a vegan choco chip cookie? Well, that's just the dream!

Thankful to have spent some time brainstorming with our friends over at 🍪💙☕

I will try to fix you 🎵

Sometimes our glasses need a little maintenance and sometimes they need full service! Whether that's tightening screw, replacing nose pads or something a bit more extreme, we don't charge for repairs at Coles & Keys.
Instead, we have been collecting donations to aid local shelter and support services within the Stratford community. So if you come in for a repair, consider donating if you can or what you can to support these local initiatives.

All the joy I see thru' these architect's eyes 🎵

Every frame within the namesake collection is named for an architect, past or present who has influenced the world of design with their creative vision. The Frey, pictured above, is named for Albert Frey, known for his desert modernism that was prominent in Palm Springs, California.

The inner and outer silhouettes of each Blake Kuwahara frame is laminated to create the stunning architecture within each piece. Alongside the German hinge design, precision mitre angles, and the luxurious sculpting and milling, it's no wonder why these frames are a celebrated favourite.
