ÖRIGIN by Morel: wood + titanium in combination

A new high-end vision of wood in eyewear from the French family-owned company in the Jura

Morel has introduced their new ÖRIGIN concept as a special edition, using wood in combination with titanium, taking an approach to the design centred on fine workmanship and attention to detail.  Two types of wood are featured – rosewood and oak, selected for their natural colourations, refined structure and style.

Drawing on its rich heritage, the brand uses iconic models from the Morel collection in the ÖRIGIN range, with contemporary details providing the fresh architectural aesthetic. For some of the frames, two metal lines naturally extend the double hook of the hinge and run through the temples, creating a refined continuity in the designs that feels understated and balanced. For other pieces, a translucent acrylic line is inserted into the heart of the wood, playing with light and transparency. Above: ÖRIGIN by Morel

The temples of all models in the collection are sculpted with soft and organic lines to provide a unique wearing experience. Carefully protected, the wood retains its natural warmth while ensuring impeccable durability and everyday comfort. Each design also features Morel’s screwless, solder-free hinge for flexibility and comfort. Find out more about ÖRIGIN by Morel at www.morel.com
