Handwoven talisman Kilimanjaro

Long pendant from the collection“weaving talisman” ( 7.5cm x 5.5 cm) worked with the technique of micro weaving with linen threads in shades of beige and orange. 

I was born and grew up in Athens. Since I was a child  I was embroidering and knitting having a special relationship and love for the colored threads. I studied photography and I worked as a photojournalist. In the early 90s I was first involved with the loom and plant paints, making tapestries  of large dimensions, exhibited in Aegina. In 2006 I began to attend jewelry making seminars (metal), working at the same time.

Two years ago I did weaving lessons. Since then this haw been the technique  I work my jewelery with.

I try to apply this traditional technique in today's way and style. I use natural materials, cotton, linen, silk, and semi-precious stones.
