Bahir Custom Lighting & Decor

Across lakes and over oceans, tucked into the sloping hill of a Mediterranean village, artisans deftly maneuver rivulets of melting glass. Masters of an art form founded by their ancestors, these latter day Phoenicians are the glass blowers of the modern world. This is BAHIR, where ancestral glassmaking traditions meet pioneering innovation, transporting the Mediterranean to Minneapolis–Saint Paul. Derived from the word Nehir, meaning light in ancient Hebrew, BAHIR was founded by veteran oriental furnishings importer Kurosh Amrami. Initiated at the age of six into his family’s exotic carpet business, Amrami accompanied his father from province to province, studying each creation’s construction and provenance. Now, primed by decades of amassed expertise, Amrami combs through artisanal ateliers, handpicking glass masterpieces. With his current selection comprised exclusively of elegant glass lighting and décor he brings you his unparalleled selection that is: BAHIR. Enveloped in a hospitable, warm and colorful ambiance, clients are invited to pick the perfect Mediterranean glass for their imagined light-scape. Next, our team of experts goes to work, customizing every handcrafted detail until each client’s vision has been achieved. The final result is a mélange of sophisticated, elegant, delicate glass melting into rich hues of light and shadow that captures our clients’ dreams.
