At Joycoast, everything we create is made from wood because it reflects our commitment to sustainability, craftsmanship, and unique style. Wood’s natural lightness makes our products incredibly comfortable to wear all day. Whether it’s a watch, sunglasses, a ring, or a bracelet, you’ll barely notice you’re wearing it, but the design will always make a statement.
With sustainably sourced wood, nature becomes part of the design process. Getting to work with a variety of woods at Joycoast means that no two pieces will look the same, and we love that. Here is a brief rundown on the different types of wood we use:
