Nordic Light / Carbon Wood
FLEYE Copenhagen creates eyewear driven by curiosity. We are constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible, using innovative solutions and subtle craftsmanship to achieve beautiful design, fit, and quality.
Founded in 2002 in Denmark out of an appreciation for Scandinavian design and culture, we’ve found a global following among those who share our excitement.
FLEYE Copenhagen’s “Nordic Light”
collection transforms the beautiful
Scandinavian light into new eyewear
shapes and colorways.
With a modern take on the Skagen
paintings, a renowned Danish icon
from the late 19th century, we have
created an eyewear collection that
captures the painters’ fabulous
composition of colors and light.
The Skagen Painters were a group
of Scandinavian artists, who settled
in the village of Skagen to portray
the remarkable light and scenery.
It was especially this unique quality
of light that had drawn them to the
northernmost point of Denmark.
A translucent light that merged the
sea and sky. Anyone who has visited
Skagen will agree that the place truly
is something special, with its natural
sceneries and fascinating light.

Inspired by the iconic Danish Skagen
paintings, we have created our own
inspirational artwork by experimenting
with various materials with different
characteristics; solid, transparent,
glossy and liquid, to see how the
surfaces interacted with each other
and with light.

These stunning abstract artworks,
captured by still life photographer,
Ida Emilie Risager, led to the new
designs for the “Nordic Light”
collection. Design concepts such as
transparency, depth and structure have
been applied to create the collection.
Each frame becomes its own artistic
expression when textures are
combined, colors are chosen,
and reflections are created.

Our Nordic Light collection is
handcrafted from an innovative
combination of carbon and wood.
Our Carbon/Wood frames consist
of 23 layers of carbon fiber and 1
silky finish-layer of natural or colored
wood. Each carbon layer is thinner
than paper, light as a feather and
stronger than steel. Despite the
featherlight weight, carbon frames
are exceptionally strong.
Each carbon layer is only 0,1 mm
ensuring an extremely light frame
that at the same time keeps its shape.
We use a 0,3 mm thin layer of natural
oak wood or colored wood to add an
exclusive and natural warmth to the
raw carbon frames.
Dahlia is a stylish optical frame with elegant wooden details, adding character to the design.
With the fusion of raw carbon fiber and colored Platan wood, Dima is taking modern eyewear design to a whole new level.
Ege is a modern take on the 80’s aesthetics with classic shapes and a double bridge.
Florian is a masculine and classic optical frame with a contemporary touch.
Dorius is a cool com-bination of retro and modern vibes, crafted in raw carbon fiber and colored Platan wood.
Eng is a stylish optical frame, enhanced by elegant wooden details with a contemporary touch.
