‘w-eye’ collection of glasses by italian designer matteo ragni and manufactured by MA-wood products is made of seven sheets of curved plywood and 2 sheets of aluminum. the combination of materials allows for a frame that is lightweight (10gr ) in material yet durable in strength. it conforms to the face of users by keeping a memory of facial shapes.

unlike most glasses, ‘w-eye’ eye wear features a one piece design that is carved and polished. the collection is available in six wood variations of ebony, zebrano, mahogany, cherry, ash and walnut.
the collection was presented last week at the aspesi 1910 store, milan and is now available to purchase.
