The Timber Collection is an inspired, limited offering of beautiful, salvaged hardwood eyeglass frames. Each piece tells a story . They are classic, hand crafted and impossibly unique. The dark brown patina and deep grain speak of character and experience. The wood for these frames was carefully milled from centuries old beams taken from the heart of the Meatpacking District in New York City. The beams themselves served as an integral part of building's structure watching over generation of workers as they earned their daily wages. These timbers were painstakingly removed during a historic remodel by designer and craftsman Daniel Grady Fairs. Daniel uses the wood to create his line of beautiful furniture pieces called Capsule Furniture. Drift Collection is...a conversation starter. A subtle cool that speaks for itself. A unique brand with vision, soul and design...The wail of a bluesman. The sunshine on your face. The clear-eyed, pure-hearted pursuit of a Passion....
