Akoni’s philosophy is rooted in an unwavering devotion to excellence, and a belief that every detail matters. From the first spark of design to the final polish of a finished frame, the label approaches its craft with extraordinary care, selecting only the most exceptional materials, refined technologies, and time-honored techniques. Even its name carries meaning with “Akoni,” being derived from Latin, and translating to “priceless” or “worthy of admiration.”

To celebrate its fifth anniversary, Akoni is releasing a limited-edition version of two of its most recognizable frames: Eris and Eris-Two. Designed as complementary takes on the same aesthetic, the styles highlight the brand’s focus on thoughtful construction, clean design, and pieces that are built to last. 

Both frames are crafted from lightweight Japanese titanium, known for its strength, durability, and smooth finish. They come with custom tinted Mars lenses, which are nods to themes of exploration and discovery, and pushing forward through boundaries. Eris features a slightly more architectural shape, while Eris-Two offers a more compact version of the same idea. Together, these two creations reflect Akoni’s approach to eyewear, where proportion, balance, and precision are key. The anniversary editions are produced in very limited quantities, with each pair individually numbered.

Every detail of this limited edition release speaks to the brand’s balance of innovation and traditional craftsmanship, from machined titanium components to carefully engineered lenses. This results in eyewear that feels both technically refined and effortlessly elegant. Durable, but classy. Reflecting the brand’s appreciation for objects made with intention and technical mastery, the anniversary edition arrives in a specially designed presentation case. Drawing inspiration from the refined packaging traditions of high-end watchmaking, the box nods to the culture of precision engineering that continues to influence Akoni’s approach to design. A perfect finish to a product of elegance, and resilience. This collection will be available March 16th at Akoni.com and select retailers.
