Luxurious, more luxurious, Maximilianstraße. Here the Haute Volée shows up and honours
the splendour and magnificence of this area. We think this München-spot deserves another
dedication – that’s why we named our new model after him: MAXIMILIAN. “He” is a
symbol of the haute couture that will make its arrival in the segment of wooden shades.
Classical its form, precious its material, completed in style these glasses prove how simple good taste is. We take the best (12 layers of fine woods), manufacture it during 14 work hours and 76 work steps and present it with pride. Et voilà…
Ebony and Ivory, a pairing which even has its own song – that‘s how valuable the wood from the Diospyros tree, from which ebony is harvested, is. As far back as ancient Egypt the wood, which mainly came from East India or Africa and is very dense (making it more durable), has been treated with reverence.
Although we only use small quantities of ebony obtained from furniture manufacturers unable to use it due to the size, we take care that it is all procured in areas where the trees are not endangered.
