This is Holtsee.
We make glasses. Really fabulous ones.
The kind you actually want to wear. The kind strangers stop you to ask about. The kind you put on and think, “Ohhh, I look good in these.”
Because if they're going to sit smack bang in the middle of your face, they should be fabulous.
Making four eyes fabulous. It’s what we do.
Two sisters. One very good idea.
We’re Lynda and Susie Holt, the sisters behind Holtsee.
We started Holtsee because we wanted reading glasses to be so much more than something you simply needed to see.
We wanted colour. Fabulous shapes. Glasses you could change every day depending on how you felt. The pair you put on and suddenly — there’s the outfit.
Because a fabulous pair of glasses can change how you look, but more importantly, they can change how you feel.
A little bit bold. A whole lot of fabulous. They’re jewellery for your face.
Oh great. I need glasses.
It starts innocently enough.
The menu gets a little blurry. Your phone starts moving further away. The lighting in restaurants suddenly becomes absolutely appalling.
And then it dawns on you.
You need glasses.
But here's the good bit. Glasses don't have to make you feel older, sensible or suddenly very serious.
Quite the opposite.
They can make you feel fabulous. Put on a bold pair and suddenly your whole face changes. A little colour. A little confidence. A whole new look.
If you need them anyway, you may as well LOVE wearing them.
Real people. Really good glasses.
We know buying glasses online can come with questions. What strength do I need? Will these suit me? What on earth does my prescription mean?
That’s where we come in.
Send us your prescription. Send us a photo. Ask us a question. Need a hand? We love to help.
There are real people at the other end of Holtsee — us — and we genuinely want you to love your glasses.
Whatever your eyes need.
Readers. Prescription. Multifocals. Sunglasses. Sunreaders. Blue light.
Fabulous Holtsee frames paired with quality lenses made for your eyes.
You’re the heartbeat of Holtsee.
Holtsee might have started with the two of us, but it wouldn't be Holtsee without you.
Every order, every message, every photo you send us in your new glasses, every recommendation to a friend — it all means more to us than you probably realise.
We still get excited when an order comes through. We still love seeing which frames you choose. And nothing makes us happier than hearing that you put on a pair of Holtsees and feel fabulous.
You’re not just our customers. You’re the heartbeat of Holtsee.
Be bold. Be brave. Be you.
