About Alexandra Peng Charton
Alexandra Peng Charton has spent more than 15 years designing and producing eyewear for global
brands.
In 2009, she started TC Charton, the first North American brand that focuses solely on making
distinctive, beautiful eyewear for Asians.
Alexandra took not only her vast knowledge of the eyewear industry but also her first hand
experience as an Asian woman trying to find eyewear that fits.
Higher cheekbones, lower nose bridges and other ethnic features conspire to make
conventional eyewear impossible or uncomfortable to wear so a brand has been created for
Asians to specifically address fit issues while remaining remarkably stylish and luxurious.
Alexandra gets her inspiration by studying Asian facial features everywhere she goes. Each
style is designed to fit certain Asian characteristics. Each style frame is named after its
muse and custom made.
And while TC Charton was originally intended to fit Asians, people from many other ethnic
backgrounds are finding the fit – fabulous.
