T HENRI secures strategic investment from Harvey Ross to support selective international growth

Independent eyewear house T HENRI, founded by Tyler Henri, has secured a strategic investment from veteran entrepreneur Harvey Ross of Ross Holdings. The funding supports international expansion while maintaining the brand’s core model of Japanese craftsmanship, serialized micro-production limited to 199 pieces or fewer per style, and selective distribution through over 300 authorized retailers worldwide. Henri retains leadership over creative direction and operations. Ross, with more than six decades of industry experience and founder of Viva International Group, currently leads OPTYX New York. He discovered T HENRI during a showroom visit in Boca Raton, Florida. The announcement coincides with the return of Ross’s Sergio Cereda Eyewear Design Award to the MIDO | Milano Eyewear Show, scheduled for February 6–8, 2027, in Milan, Italy.
