Ahlem

AHLEM was founded in 2014 by Paris-born designer Ahlem Manai-Platt. Rigorous attention to detail, insistence on exceptional materials, commitment to sustainable methods, and an abiding obsession with arts and culture combine to inform AHLEM’s vision. The revolutionary design principles of Bauhaus are at the core of the brand’s approach and serve as an aesthetic reference for designs with timeless appeal. AHLEM eyewear tells a story of artisanal expertise: Throughout production, glasses travel to three specialized ateliers and into the hands of nine skilled artisans, each with a particular craft passed down through generations. Maintaining a fierce loyalty to these artisans and preserving their knowledge and traditions is core to AHLEM’s mission. With a flagship boutique on Venice’s Abbot Kinney Boulevard and sister stores in NYC, San Francisco and Paris, AHLEM’s organic shapes and elegant geometries offer designs that exist beyond trend, in the belief that functional objects of superior design and quality are always relevant.
