"Very pretty eyeglass holder"

Beautiful embroidery on this piece. Good for carrying your eyeglasses handily around your neck, or put the cord inside (or cut it off) and very easily find this bright bag in your purse, as well.

"Not Just for Glasses!"

I used this throughout my trip to the Mediterranean to carry my phone, a credit card and a little cash. I never lost any of it. In addition to being truly functional, the embroidery is exquisite and it hold up beautifully!

"This is just the right size for my phone"

Love this little bag -- It is just the right size for my cell phone. I didnt want it to get scratched up in my purse. The bag also gives it some added protection. Very happy with this purchase! I am sure it would be marvelous for eyeglasses, too.

"Practical and beautiful; great for cell phones"

The embroidered eyeglass cases made by Carmen and Felipe are perfect for holding my iPhone, helping me avoid misplacing it. They are very sturdy, fit perfectly (iPhone 12), close securely, and are embroidered with intricate designs and vivid color. I love them. I had one in red and searched in vain for something like it but another color from other sources. Then I remembered that I got mine from Carmen and Felipe at Novica, and all is well again. indeed, I bought several more to give as gifts.
