Hawthorne: Black Chrome

Founded in 2009, Shwood was born from the limb of a Madrone tree, a rusty pair of cabinet hinges, and lenses from the corner store. The goal was simple—create a product that encompasses the individuality and uniqueness that can only be found in natural surroundings. Equipped with nothing more than rudimentary hand tools and a desire to be different, the manufacturing process was completely engineered from the ground up. Constant experimentation with tools, materials, and design and has resulted in an array of one-of-kind techniques that continues to evolve daily. Experimentation with new materials is at the heart of what we do. From our original wood frames to stabilized seashells and oxidized metals, Shwood has pioneered over 15 new materials in the eyewear industry.

All Shwood eyewear is treated with Shwood's secret blend of non-allergenic, organic waxes and oils and sealed with with light shellac finish. This protective coating helps the wood maintain a proper moisture balance needed to prevent drying out and/or cracking while also helping to repel water. It is recommended that you re-apply this coating to protect your glasses from damage anytime they begin to look lighter or feel dryer. Regular application should help protect against most cracks and significantly improve the look and durability of the wood. Recommended coatings include beeswax, lip-balm, butcher block oil, or walnut oil.

For daily care, it is recommended that Shwood eyewear is constantly kept in a safe place. All Shwood eyewear should be treated as "wearable art." Do not store glasses in your pocket, backpack, hanging from your shirt, etc. If you are not wearing them, keep them in a hard case or safe place.

Use the included microfiber cleaning cloth to wipe lenses as needed.
