Eyewear by Beausoleil

Available at Spectacle

These frames are made up of 20% actual real wood. This season we are starting to see different materials being used in the production of eyewear weather it be woods, leathers or precious metals. The beauty in this particular collection is that they are made in the same way as the rest of the Beausoleil collection, which employs an ancient French watch making technique to manufacture frames.
