The history of the Anna-Karin Karlsson brand

Anna-Karin Karlsson is a Swedish designer who has become one of the most original figures in luxury eyewear. From a very young age, she cut her teeth in one of London's oldest optical shops, where she developed her passion for craftsmanship and glamour. She then enriched her career within several renowned fashion houses, refining her couture technique and artistic vision before launching her own label in the early 2010s.

From her very first collection, the designer established a distinctive style, blending vintage inspirations, nods to cinema and pop culture, and a pronounced taste for extravagance. Recognised as one of Sweden's most influential designers in the early 2010s, Anna-Karin Karlsson today sees her models distributed in more than fifty countries and worn by celebrities and fashion icons from around the world.

Sunglasses conceived as works of art

The Anna-Karin Karlsson signature rests on an unapologetic contrast between opulent glamour and strongly defined graphic lines. Each frame blends past and future to give birth to avant-garde creations, driven by an attention to detail worthy of haute couture. Butterflies, feathers, felines or floral motifs often adorn the temples and contours of tinted lenses, making each pair a unique and instantly recognisable piece.

Exceptional materials

The house's expertise is distinguished by the use of noble and rare materials. 24-carat gold-plated titanium, white gold, rose gold, Japanese acetate, pearls, emerald stones, hand-set crystals and sometimes even diamonds compose Anna-Karin Karlsson frames. This exacting choice of materials guarantees an impeccable finish, exceptional lightness when worn and lasting durability, worthy of the finest jewellery pieces.

Iconic and bold shapes

Anna-Karin Karlsson sunglasses are instantly recognisable thanks to their oversized sculptural shapes. Octagonal silhouettes, enveloping curves and carefully crafted volumes make up resolutely feminine frames, designed for women who love to stand out. Each collection revisits these graphic codes with new shades and new embellishments, drawing on animal, floral and contemporary inspiration.

The claw, the house's iconic signature

Beyond materials and shapes, Anna-Karin Karlsson has forged a true identity through a detail that has become its hallmark: the claw. On many models, the hinge connecting the temple to the front is no longer a simple concealed technical element but a sculpted piece in the shape of a metal claw, literally gripping the lens like a talon closed around its treasure. This motif, rendered in gold-plated or silver titanium, structures entire collections such as Claw Aventure, The Claw & The Nest and The Claw Pilot, where the claw adorns round frames as well as pilot or octagonal silhouettes. Far from being a mere ornament, this claw is conceived as a jewel in its own right, making each frame instantly recognisable, blending animal inspiration with a jewellery spirit.

Anna-Karin Karlsson best-selling models

Among the brand's most sought-after models, the The Claw & The Nest collection holds a special place. Recognisable by its clawed frame and octagonal lines, it perfectly embodies the house's couture spirit and comes in several colourways, from intense black to golden tones. The Claw Aventure variation appeals to lovers of bold, graphic pieces conceived as true solar jewels. These iconic models are among the must-haves in our Anna-Karin Karlsson selection at Céline Roland Opticien Lunetier.
