Abstract: Decorative elements magnetically attachable to, removable from and/or interchangeable with eyewear frames comprise decorative element mounting means having a recess for receiving a magnet and cooperating with a recess on the eyewear frame which receives the mounting means. The two recesses are generally opposed in direction such that the recess on the mounting means and the magnet therein are both received internally by the recess on the eyewear frame with the magnet being sufficiently close to the internal metal or wire reinforcement of the frame to be attracted thereto.
