The horn frames are being made in France

Not worth the bother or the $. Acetate all the way. A bunch of European companies making frames out of wood too. These "natural" frames are very fragile, difficult or impossible to adjust, and lots of people seem to be buying. I think you are really just purchasing future migraines and losses with these products.

Interesting, I don't think any of the folks making the Buffalo Horn frames were even wearing their own product.????? Nice looking frames though.

We just received our first order of buffalo horn frames today. You can see them on our facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/PennAvenueEy...ref=ts&fref=ts

The factory did a great job. We are always worried the production product will look different than the samples. We put together 6 designs. While some many not like the randomness of the design you get with horn, I am a big fan of the look. They are extremely light weight.

Now we will see how they sell. We have three shows coming up (Texas, SECO and VEE) and it will be interesting to see how they are received.

Looking good I hope they sell well for you.

Horn is an interesting material to work with. I've made pistol grips and knife handles from it, but haven't made a frame, yet.......

P.S. I liked your page both under my name and as Angel Optical, Keep us informed and we will repost as we can, many retailers, frame reps and manufacturers see the page.
