A Dutch Brand with a Global Soul
Mónare is a Dutch luxury brand with a timeless vision. Founded on the idea of creating products that combine simplicity, elegance, and quality, we bring modern minimalism together with a sense of cultural depth. Our collections are designed in the Netherlands, shaped by European refinement, but carry a deeper story that sets us apart.
Rooted in Aramean Heritage
What makes Mónare unique is the foundation of its name and inspiration. With Aramean heritage at its core, our brand carries with it a story of identity and history. The Arameans are among the world’s oldest cultures, known for resilience, light, and origin – values that we proudly embed into our brand.
The Meaning of the Name Mónare
The name Mónare is a union of languages and meaning.
- Mon in French means “my” or “I”.
- Are in English stands for “to be”.
Together, the name translates to “I am” or “My being” – a declaration of identity and existence. It reflects not just a brand, but a statement of belonging, individuality, and timeless presence.
The Emblem of Light
Beyond the wordmark, Mónare is represented by its emblem inspired by the Shamash (Sjamasj), the ancient Aramean symbol of the sun and light. In history, Shamash stood for justice, strength, and origin. Our emblem transforms this into a modern luxury seal: a figure of dignity and movement, crowned with light, representing our belief in timeless beauty and authenticity.
Our Philosophy
At Mónare, we believe luxury should be calm, subtle, and meaningful. No excess, no noise – only essentials created with attention to detail, high-quality materials, and a sense of timelessness. We design for women who value elegance, sophistication, and heritage in equal measure
