The Lebanese fine jewellery house AW Mouzannar was established in the mid 18th century and rose to fame in the 1950s when it was run by brothers Aziz and Walid Mouzannar, who set up the famous Mouzannar Jeweller's Souk. Today, Mouzannar is run by sixth-generation cousins Alia and Dori Mouzannar who have added a contemporary twist to the brand's signature Middle Eastern aesthetic. Working out of their Beirut-based headquarters, Dori and Alia each create their own distinctive fine jewellery collections, which are sold under the family name.
