Ahlem Vertbois

Meet me at the athenaeum. A rigorous round unisex style that conjures a legacy of European intellectual pursuit, with a touch of Japanese innovation. Compelling contrasts abound: A thick bridge offsets slender circles, and raw-cut matte finishes alternate with hand-polished radiance.

• Handcrafted in France
• 8mm plant-based Italian acetate
• Metal hardware — front pins, wire core, and hinges — finished with palladium and 22k gold electroplating
• 10mm-wide temples with a single raw-cut bevel, creating a striking contrast between matte and polished finishes
• Custom filigree wire core featuring repetitions and variations of AHLEM’s signature circle and triangle motifs
• Keyhole nose design detail
• Exclusive five-barrel hinge with thread-lock technology
