J.F. Rey Announces Carbonwood Eyewear Collection Combining Carbon, Aluminum and Wood

Eyewear manufacturer J.F. Rey announced the "Carbonwood" collection, a premium line primarily targeting men that combines carbon and glass fibers, aluminum, and wood. The company states this material mix creates stable, durable, and lightweight frames with distinct visual contrasts. A key feature is a multi-layer construction where carbon and aluminum are fused under high pressure in a structure approximately four millimeters thick, without adhesives or solvents. This method aims to make frames robust yet delicate, while colored aluminum treatment highlights the design. Additional features include a screwless hinge for flexibility and specialized nose pads for improved fit. The announcement describes the collection's characteristics but does not confirm specific launch dates, pricing, or immediate availability.
