This eyeglasses stand is crafted from solid timber, such as pine or rubberwood, providing a natural weight that helps prevent the unit from sliding across furniture. The 12mm to 15mm thick wood profile offers a sturdy ballast, making it a reliable choice for holding standard acetate or metal frames. The design uses a simple bridge-slot system where the glasses rest on a carved "nose" feature, keeping them visible and accessible.
The wood is finished with a matte sealant to help protect the grain. In some cases, the natural texture of the wood may be present in the slot; a light application of mineral oil can be used to ensure the surface is as smooth as possible for your frames. This stand is specifically designed for flat-folding glasses. For those using wrap-around sports sunglasses, the weight distribution may shift, so testing the balance with those specific frames is recommended.
- Solid wood construction offers a zero-maintenance lifecycle with no moving parts to wear out.
- The 4mm bridge-slot depth is designed to prevent frames from sliding forward.
- Naturally weighted base reduces the "skating" effect on smooth bedside tables.
For users who want even more security on very slick surfaces, adding small silicone adhesive feet to the bottom of the wooden base can provide extra grip. This stand serves as both a functional tool and a decorative element for a home office or bedroom.
If you are looking for a softer interior for delicate lens coatings, the 2 pack PU leather eyeglasses holder stands offer a plush-lined alternative.
