AHLEM ⁽²⁵⁾

Launched in 2014, AHLEM is an eyewear label founded by Paris-born, Los Angeles-based 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 timeless applications of early 20th century Bauhaus design principles are of particular resonance and serve as a consistent aesthetic reference.

Each pair of AHLEM glasses tells a story of artisanal expertise: Throughout production, glasses travel to three specialised 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 our mission.
