OGA 2300 Series By Morel France, Wooden Temples
3rd September 2010 (Updated) | Category: Life Log

When it comes to wood, or any object made out of wood, I simply couldn’t resist. That’s my weakness. The OGA 2300 Series is available in three cultivated woods: walnut (dark brown), bubenga (red-brown) and sycamore (ivory). I bought the bubenga edition (image above).
These outstanding frames with wooden and “synthetic glass” temples are a veritable technological feat in a pure designer and modern style. The temples give the impression of a material so homogeneous that nature could have created it.
The frame itself cost about RM1200 (USD350) excluding lenses, which comes to about RM1500 before discount. Anyway, I think it is a good buy. Love the wooden temples, come on, it is made of wood, how can I resist?
p.s. I love the New Bentley Mulsanne, look at the wooden dashboard. Am a sucker for anything made out of wood.

on January 17th, 2010The OGA 2300 looks really nice. But if it is made of real wood, do you need some special maintainence, like putting oil or wax on it to prevent cracking or discoloring?

on June 23rd, 2010I got a pair of 2300′s. Brown/Bronze coloured frames with natural wood finish arms.
The surface treatment on the wooden arms rubs off EXTREMELY easily. I dashed through some light rain the other day, and every place that a drop of water touched the wooden arms left a mark. It looks like missing polish. I’m very disappointed. I have a replacement pair coming, but I doubt it will solve the problem.
I thought for the huge amount of money these cost, OGA would at least use a wood treatment and polish that could withstand a drop of water! Every other wood surface I’m aware of can.
