The Idea
Burnt + Ava was founded by interior designer Karen Burns to meet the need for a stylish case that would protect fine eyewear and fit easily into a purse or pocket.
As an active explorer, she quickly discovered the challenge of getting to her glasses while running around the city and world. That set her on a new journey – to create a solution that was elegant and functional.
Style & Quality
All of our materials are thoughtfully selected for beauty and durability.
European leathers finished in Italy, custom foil- printed suede, and fully-lined interiors are hallmarks of Burnt + Ava quality and style. Solid brass magnetic snaps provide easy in and out for busy hands. The full-length pocket inside fits much more than glasses - credit cards, masks, and other essentials too.
100% Handmade
Our cases are hand-crafted by a family-owned firm right here in Chicago. Every stitch and every fold is done by experienced craftspeople dedicated to making the best product possible.
From their hands to yours, you will feel the care every time you reach for your Burnt + Ava case.
