WHY HORN?

ONE OF A KIND

Each piece is unique, emphasizing the natural beauty of the material.

COMFORT & FIT

The lightest-weight frames on the market, tailor-fit to your face by our master opticians.

CRUELTY FREE

Our genuine buffalo horn eyewear is created using only ethically sourced material. Derived from the Asian water buffalo, revered in its native India, the horn is collected only after the completion of the animal’s natural lifecycle. Any shavings or waste in the frame-making process are returned to the earth for use as fertilizer for the surrounding vineyards.
