BEHIND T HENRI
OUR STORY
In search of an eyewear brand that parallels an elite lifestyle while paying tribute to the world’s most innovative and exclusive machines, Tyler Henri was driven to create a purist, exotic lifestyle brand…a brand which flows harmoniously with the vanity fair of indulging in hyper-cars, super-yachts, and jumbo jets. Out of that innovation, T HENRI was born, a new ultra-chic brand offering the world’s most luxurious and meticulously-crafted eyepieces.
Having worn and studied eyepieces designed by the world’s most talented independent brands, Tyler went to the epicenter of micro-production eyewear— Sabae, Japan. With his vision and artistic direction, a scrutinizing three-year process began. It’s sole mission: to assemble the most exclusive luxury eyewear collection available in the world, the Monaco Series.
Thus born, T HENRI is an ultra-luxury, micro-production eyewear brand inspired by the world’s most prized possessions.
