Minas

Minas was born in Athens and trained as a goldsmith. From a very young age he knew what he wanted to achieve. Later he went to America where he lived and worked for eleven years in New York, as a freelancer and establishing his presence as a designer, creating pieces in gold and silver. In the eighties he moved his studio back to Athens and began a new limited production of personally signed pieces. The first Minas store opened in Mykonos in 1998 and the flagship in Kifissia in 2005. His first store in London, Knightsbridge is scheduled to open in October 2015. Minas designs exquisite contemporary jewelry for ladies and men in silver, oxidised silver and 18K gold. Timeless class and outstanding craftsmanship are characteristics of his creations. The pendant of the year is always a great favorite, the cross cord bracelet, the hearts, the symbols. It is interesting to note that earrings and bracelets are made for left and right side, following the rules of anatomy.
