It's hard to actually surprise anyone with anything in eyewear design today. It seems we've already seen all possible shapes and palettes, and maybe even grown somewhat spoiled by a diverse choice like that. Among all the fancy models and whimsical pieces, it's getting harder and harder to choose that very one and only frame that is uniquely and utterly yours. And if you've been looking for something that stands out immediately yet offers just as much of a quality and wearability, Gold & Wood eyeglasses might be exactly what makes you go, "Yes, please!"
As the brand name's unambiguously suggests, these glasses are made of gold, and they are also made of wood. Sounds intriguing and a little bit unbelievable, right? How can you even wear wooden glasses, or golden ones, for that matter? Well, of course, Gold & Wood eyeglasses are not made of those entirely. The base is an ultrathin, ultra resilient metal frame on which noble wood veneers are layered and genuine gold is plated in ways that literally take your breath away. The wood is selected based on its exclusiveness, the richness of texture, and, of course, technical characteristics to provide a lightweight, skin-friendly, delightful no matter how you spin it wearing experience. And the gold... Well, the gold! It's not just plated and polished hypnotically into lines that seem to be made of pure light—it's filigreed to capture all the shimmering finesse gold can deliver. But wait, there is much more to these glasses than their premium choice of materials and luxurious sheen! And we're gonna dive right into the nuances.
Crafting frames that are nothing short of wearable masterpieces, Gold & Wood never stops streamlining its designs and experimenting with new ways of injecting that stunning, exceptional quality into them. Each frame calls for its own wood-to-gold ratio, for the kind of veneer that is just right for it, be it the soft warmth of the Koto wood or the noble smoothness of the Carolina pine tree. Out of 12 precious wood types the brand has chosen as its own, each is carefully selected, polished, and hand-carved to catch all the graceful veins and lovely knots, something that also ensures every frame is unique and inimitable, just like every piece of wood.
With materials like veneer and buffalo horn all over the brand's product descriptions and ad campaigns, certain ethical doubts are inevitable. Have none—Gold & Wood sources all of its raw stuff in an eco-friendly, nature-sparing manner. Sustainability is among the label's core values, so you can rest assured the fine splendor of your new eyeglasses doesn't come at the expense of any things green or living. After all, Mother Nature is exactly where the company taps into for inspiration to dream up and put together all these otherworldly, irresistible frames. Feel the touch of the green thumb and catch a glimpse of magic light in the Gold & Wood eyeglasses we've selected for you on this page!
Not every kind, that's for sure. Gold & Wood uses only the rarest, most precious, and most beautiful wood species sourced in a caring and sustainable way. Among the 12 types of noble wood preferred by the label, all are light and durable for a perfect wearing experience.
Of course! The brand can make your pair with just the kind of lenses you need. Simply include the prescription along with the other details typically asked for when placing an order.
