Frames Made of Wood

We’ve got a lot of questions and interest about wood frames from you readers. Fun! Personally I love the idea of having a frame all made by natural wood. Unfortunately I haven’t seen anyone in real life yet and to buy a wood frame you should be very sure about the frames comfort and fit, because the wood isn’t adjustable at all.

Is there anybody who knows any place to find wood frames in Stockholm or Berlin?

On the Beach… Goa, India

I had a great vacation in India! We went to Palolerm in Goa, which really is a paradise. Unfortunately not in an Eyewear perspective, though – most of the tourists wore fake Ray-Bans… except for one man from Canada, who is a great eyewear fan and had wonderful sunglasses that he’d bought in New York.

The brand name of the sunglasses is called Harpers, a british company established 1978 by an optometrist. And, at THIS website you can order bespoke custom handmade frames or a reproduction of any vintage frame, handmade from the same factory as the Harpers where made!
