Konstantino Treasures Today
Filed in archive Jewelry Collections by tammy on August 28, 2007
It's not difficult at all to understand how the word "treasures" was selected as part of this jewelry collection by Konstantino, as he manages to cull from his ancient Greek heritage. I mean, Wow!, can't you just imagine some Greek goddess or lady of royalty wearing some of these super-ornate designs? The engraving and etching techniques used result in the detail that covers each piece of jewelry. He describes his approach to design as follows:
Konstantino was born in Athens and raised amid the beauty and majesty of one of the oldest civilizations in the world.
"My father was a huge influence in my life... he taught me constantly about Greek philosophy, history and art."
Enthralled with Greek history and the rich legacy of Greek gods and goddesses, Konstantino developed an endless fascination with the artisanship of the earliest Greek jewelry designs.
"This is why our jewelry is different from any other. Our designs are timeless and universal. They come from the core of civilization and the elements of the modern world."
Throughout time, artisans have paid homage to Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty. In his own tribute to this magnificent goddess, Konstantino has devoted a lifetime to creating modern expressions of ancient greek jewelry
.This pearl ring is from the Delphi Pearl Collection.
This sterling silver cuff bracelet is from the Omorphia Collection.
There is tons more gorgeous jewelry on Konstantino web site, so if these few pieces appeal to you, it's definitely worth a trip over there.
