SALITRE AIKABIA | Handcrafted Eyewear

Handcrafted Eyewear in Andalusia, Spain.

Handcrafted Eyewear: An exclusive edition made of traditional wooden Taracea skin (ebony, sycamore and cedar), an Arabian Andalusi technique that comes from Granada, a city where artisans have preserved the purity and the original style of this authentical process. Laveta x Tarxia has cared for the smallest details both in the design and manufacture of these sunglasses, using 100% natural materials and high quality lens.

Aikabia: “On one side, the river Darro; on the other, The Alhambra. And in between, Aikabia, the ravine that accompanies along the rise. A steep hill used as a symbol of the effort and perseverance that the Taracea represents. Values that this model shows combining this time the red tones of the earth with the elegance of the cedar”.
