the Elite icon represents the most innovative concepts we have ever envisioned,” said company president Colin Baden. “Over the decades, [some Oakley breakthroughs] never found commercial application because the designs were too radical for consumers to grasp, or the projected price points would have narrowed demand and made development unfeasible. The Elite Collection allows these revolutionary designs to reach consumers, albeit in extremely limited quantities,” Baden concluded.

Real wood-working is an art form that dates back to the inception of furniture itself, and Jolyon Yates carries on the tradition in style. According to Yates his focus is to “display the soul by reflecting the care and honesty with which they have been conceived and crafted in a world of loveless volume manufacturing”. The Savannah Rocker molds carefully selected Birch Ply into outrageous shape to create this mastery in modern design and depart from “mass production” principles.
