Best 18 Eco Friendly Wood Eyeglass Companies
Growing Fashion Eyewear Trend- Wood Eyewear And Sunglasses- Wood Eyeglasses are not new, they were among the first eyeglass materials ever used. Over the years Many companies have used Wood as decor or embellishments, but lately more and more eyewear designers are creating wood eyewear designs.
In Asia there seems to be a few individuals such as Mr. Takemoto, (who shows up frequently in google) and artisans out of China and India making wood eyeglasses and selling online. Then of course some companies such as Manik offer their own seasonal wood eyewear. Then other artistic designer such a Bendall Design make up an occasional limited edition pieces.
Just how many wood eyewear companies are there? Is this a trend? Of the below listed companies- Seven of them are new (this year) and a couple are fairly new (in the last 2 years. Did these budding eyewear designers start due to the economy?
Why I really like this trend
- Finally eyewear made in the USA, yes support our economy, buy local and support local entrepreneurs.
- Craftmanship- Some of the eyewear offers wood carvings and the handmade aspect set these apart from the standard plastic and metal frames.
- The majority of these companies are Eco Friendly and support causes and give back, whether by planting trees or an overall giveback program
- Wood eyewear is not a mass produced product, I like the fact that as a consumer I am not paying a licensing fee for a designer name, but paying for local sourced and individual products.
- Each piece looks different- Due to the inherent qualities of wood and the textures, each piece is unique to the wood.
- A few of the companies do custom work as well
