Premium Polycarbonate Lenses with 100% UV Protection

Protect your eyes with impact-resistant, scratch-resistant lenses that block UVA and UVB rays completely. All Aarni sunglasses are equipped with premium polycarbonate lenses that deliver crystal-clear vision, 100% UV protection, and outstanding durability. These lenses are up to 10 times more impact-resistant than standard lenses, making them ideal for everyday wear. They are also shatterproof and scratch-resistant, ensuring your sunglasses stay looking new longer. Plus, our frames are compatible with prescription lenses, which can be added by your local optician.

Curly Birch

Made from Curly Birchwood—often called the “wooden marble” for its beautiful dark, swirling grain—each frame is a one-of-a-kind piece of wearable art. The wood layers are expertly cross-woven and forged for exceptional durability while maintaining a lightweight feel that ensures all-day comfort.

Birch is often referred to as the wooden marble of the Nordics, symbolizing the unique value and beauty of northern nature. With a long and esteemed history, it has been a highly sought-after material throughout the ages. It is the only native Finnish wood species traded by the kilogram rather than by cubic meter – a testament to its exceptional value. Each piece of curly birch is one of a kind, with its lively, wavy grain pattern making it a true work of natural art.

Ebony

The frames are made of ebony wood. Each layer is carefully cross-woven and forged together, making frames extra durable and also great-looking! Ebony has been luxuriously used for thousands of years from Pharao’s coffins to piano keys.

Ebony wood is a dark, dense, and luxurious hardwood known for its rich black color and exceptional strength. Found primarily in tropical regions of Africa, India, and Southeast Asia, ebony has been prized for centuries for its use in high-end craftsmanship.

Sunglasses

Aarni sunglasses aren’t just about style—they’re about strength. By seamlessly blending natural hardwood with our innovative Aarni Carbon Core™ structure, we’ve created frames that are as durable as they are lightweight. Designed to complement various face shapes, they offer comfort without compromise, while premium polycarbonate lenses provide 100% UVA and UVB protection. Many models also feature polarization for enhanced clarity and reduced glare.

Our sunglasses are crafted in collaboration with a family-owned factory near Shanghai, China—renowned experts in wooden eyewear. By utilizing cross-laminated wood veneers reinforced with a carbon fiber core, we ensure that every pair offers unparalleled durability. With continuous product development and innovation at the heart of our partnership, we are proud to create some of the world’s finest wooden sunglasses.

Materials

Every material tells a story of untouched forests and a deep respect for nature’s legacy. We use only sustainably sourced wood, including FSC® and PEFC™ certified hardwoods and sustainable leathers —natural materials that are as enduring as they are beautiful.

Sustainably sourced and rigorously tested, our materials are made to last — and to connect you with the quiet luxury of the wild.

FAQs

Our sunglasses are crafted in a specialized workshop on the outskirts of Shanghai, known for its expertise in working with wood material. The factory places a strong focus on product development and advanced equipment.

We’re proud to collaborate closely with this skilled team to continuously develop some of the finest wooden sunglasses in the world. The workshop employs around 30 professionals, with many dedicated to product development and innovation.

The purpose of polarization is to reduce glare from horizontal reflections, such as from water or roads. The polarization of sunglass lenses is achieved through a special film added inside the lens, allowing only certain light rays to pass through.

Polarized lenses are an excellent choice for bright days, whether you're enjoying outdoor activities or driving!

Most of our sunglasses are also available with polarized lenses. See product pages for more details.

Lens replacement is possible for all our frames, and many customers have obtained prescription lenses for our sunglasses. We recommend contacting a knowledgeable optical store to have the lenses made and fitted to the frames. It's a good idea to confirm the suitability of your prescription with the optician. You can have Aarni frames made into both prescription and sunglasses tailored to your needs!

Yes, they are! However, it's best to avoid extreme temperatures and rapid temperature changes. Therefore, we do not recommend leaving the sunglasses in a hot car for extended periods.

All Aarni sunglasses are designed to be unisex and one-size-fits-all. Their classic proportions ensure a great fit for various face shapes, allowing you to enjoy a stylish look for many sunny years ahead. The stainless steel spring-loaded hinges ensure that the temples fit comfortably on different head sizes.

You can find the measurements of different models in product pages.

Our lenses have a darkness level of 2–3 on the CAT scale (0–5), meaning they offer excellent sun protection while remaining versatile for varying light conditions.

Some of our sunglass models feature metal temples and nose pads, which can be slightly bent and adjusted. Through extensive product development, we have created optimally sized temples that fit most people perfectly. However, wooden temples cannot be bent.

All of our sunglasses feature optically high-quality polycarbonate lenses. They are highly impact-resistant and comfortably lightweight and thin. They offer 100% UVA and UVB protection.

Each pair of Aarni sunglasses comes with a handy case to protect them from impact, and a microfiber cloth for easy lens cleaning.

The wooden parts don’t require special care, but to maintain their natural shine and condition, we recommend applying a wood treatment oil once a year. Paraffin oil works well for this.

To prevent the wood from drying or cracking, avoid exposing your sunglasses to excessive heat for long periods—such as leaving them in a hot car.
