In the glow of the crystal chandelier, the glasses from French brand Alain Mikli await their fans, as well as models from designer Philippe Starck, some iconic looks from the Oliver Peoples label from West Hollywood and the natural horn-rimmed glasses from Dutchman Ralph Vaessen, who is a good friend of the house. In general: natural horn. The heart of the five-strong team beats for this material. The in-house collection is made from the horn of the Indian water buffalo, a farm animal, and produced by hand in Germany.
