Frameri recently opened a pop-up shop in Over-the-Rhine.

Frameri, an Over-the-Rhine provider of prescription lenses that can be installed in interchangeable frames, opened a winter pop-up shop Nov. 21 at 1419 Vine St.

The pop-up shop will serve customers in addition to a retail showroom space the company built at its headquarters at 1308 Race St. It is scheduled to stay open until Jan. 3, 2016.

Frameri, a graduate of startup accelerator The Brandery, was founded in 2012 by Konrad Billetz and Kevin Habich.

It appeared in May on Shark Tank, an ABC-TV show about budding entrepreneurs.
