Design & Production
Environmentally-Conscious Design
Each pair of handcrafted David Green eyewear contains a unique fingerprint created by the incorporation of a fallen leaf, reed, wood, or genuine mother of pearl that is set within natural cotton-based acetate. David Green eyewear, therefore, delivers a true statement of craftsmanship and style while communicating an educated message of support for the preservation of the world we inhabit. All frames are designed in Cape Town, South Africa.
Environmentally-Responsible Production
David Green Eyewear is crafted by hand from a natural cotton-based acetate that is biodegradable and selected for its comfort and long-lasting finish. With coatings certified by RoHS, no harmful substances are used in the production of our eyewear, and our factory water is recycled.
With a focus on superior quality, other components of our eyewear, such as nose pads and hinges, are sourced from Italy, France, and Germany. Following the design process in Cape Town, a single frame could therefore take up to a year of preparation and trial before being launched in optometrists.

David Green’s purpose in life is to bring nature to the cities of the world.
Having worn spectacles from an early age, David Green created David Green Eyewear in 2005 in order to merge his passion for the environment and his keen eye for detail and design. His appreciation for craftmanship and customer care is evident in the comfort, quality and individuality of each David Green frame.
