The world of an Icon in CHARAXTER
Every story has a beginning. Discover how CHARAXTER was founded and how it evolved into a fashion house of extraordinary design, relentless innovation, and exceptional craftsmanship.
Where Character Becomes Legacy
From sunlit ateliers in California to design houses across Asia, CHARAXTER crafts with intention. This is our story: a heritage built from belonging, artistry, and uncompromising quality.
The Genesis of Expression
CHARAXTER was born from a love of art, music, and creative exploration.
Founder Peri Canoglu envisioned eyewear as a form of self-expression: a reflection of the rhythm, emotion, and individuality within each person.
Each collection embodies a distinct archetype. The Muse, The Siren, The Visionary, The Rebel representing the many ways expression takes shape.
Every frame begins as an idea, shaped by creativity and refined through craftsmanship, to become more than eyewear. An extension of expression in fashion.
The Art of the Unseen
Each CHARAXTER frame begins not with material, but with intention.
An Invitation to the Extraordinary
Every era has its icons — those whose presence lingers long after the moment fades.
CHARAXTER’s Become an Icon program was created to honor the individuals whose confidence is effortless, whose elegance is instinctive, and whose authenticity is their signature.
To become an Icon is to join a circle defined not by fame, but by essence. It is a celebration of those who live with intention, who treat self-expression as art, and who understand that style is a language of the soul.
Each Icon is invited into our world — gaining early access to limited collections, custom packaging, and a personal place within CHARAXTER’s unfolding story.
Their individuality becomes part of our heritage — a living testament to character in its most refined form.
Because true icons are not made.
They are revealed.

Collecting Memories
Every collection begins with a feeling: fleeting, unspoken, eternal.
Each frame captures what words cannot: a fragment of self, suspended in time.
Crafted from emotion, not repetition. These pieces live between presence and nostalgia.
