Wood for eyeglasses! (eyeglass frames)




what a great idea!

to have wood be a material used on the sides of eyeglasses. I worry about adjustability or warping from moisture; however, the look is great. I saw some of these today while eyeglass frame shopping for Tammy (Dr. T. Tammy Wu, Plastic surgeon - Modesto Plastic surgeon) - we are still looking she hasn't found her next pair of eyeglass frames yet.

The frames were made by Iyoko Inyake - Belgian Eyewear design


From their website:

"Many years ago, Eye Specials Worldwide acquired the world wide license to design, manufacture en distribute eyewear under the name of Iyoko Inyaké.
Since then, Henricus Dujardin, with 20 years of experience, designed more than 800 models that have been sold all over the world.Together with his team of professionals he always comes up with the most creative frames in the industry. "

I took some pictures of a display that I found in Taipei Taiwan, near the Sogo Area, near the Fuxing MRT subway station. We were told that these were designed in Belgium and manufactured in Japan.
