Abstract: An ornamental eyeglass retainer and necklace for surrounding a user's neck to suspend a pair of eyeglasses or for wear about a user's neck, as an adornment. A pair of ornamental bodies each conceal one or more interconected rings within a vertical through bore. A transverse bar spans the through bore, at an upper end and passes through one of the rings, for retaining the ring in position. One of the rings protrudes from a lower end of the through bore for attaching a decorative neck surrounding cord or chain. The ring, at the upper end of the through bore, of each body, may be slideably engaged on each eyeglass temple and the cord or chain may be attached to a ring at the lower end of the through bore, on each body, to suspend the pair of eyeglasses. The ends of the cord or chain may be connected to form a necklace.
