About the Store

Founded in 1953, Amir began as one of only two shops on a quiet Hamra Street and has grown into a timeless destination for oriental treasures. Continuously reinventing itself, the store offers a carefully curated selection of handcrafted artisan pieces and souvenirs, oriental clothing such as abayas, shawls, table linens, and unique gifts for local and international visitors.
