Pure Wood

Our glasses consist of 100% european and north american wood: maple, cherry, walnut or smoked oak, each with its typical colour and texture. This wonderful material is not only sustainable, it also has warmth, flexibility and is unique.

In every HERRLICHT frame, the individual grain of the wood is preserved, much like the rings of a tree.
