• Designer:
Despina is a Berlin based jewellery designer who was born and raised in the island of Crete, in Greece. At the age of 26 she decided to change career, after 7 years of studying and working in the field of Biomedical Engineering. Her passion for creation was always there to remind her that “it’s never late to change your life and follow your dreams”. Dedicated to this mindset, she did a 180 degree turn and devoted herself to Goldsmithing. The inspiration for every collection comes from the art world, nature and everyday-life. Her main goal is the creation of unique jewellery pieces that convey emotions and meanings.
“For me, finding inspiration is the most important step in the creation of my jewellery collections. Next comes the challenge of giving life to my ideas through forming metals. I want each piece to be something beautiful and substantial that speaks from the heart.“
• The story of Perspective Collection:
2021 is a special year for all of us, as the pandemic has affected our lives. The theme for the new collection was inspired by this unprecedented situation which we all had to face. The intention was to give an optimistic perspective, leading me to create jewellery that can give courage and hope by wearing it.
Hidden behind the organic form of each piece, is the number of the year “21”. The 2 and 1 are intertwined harmoniously to remind us how beautiful and important it is to embrace the people that we love during these difficult times.
The quote “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change” from Wayne Dyer, describes the message that this collection conveys. Even if it’s not obvious from the first glance, that the jewellery design illustrates the number 21, by changing the perspective, the numbers appears. Ιn a similar manner, the pandemic is an obstacle in our lives, but if we change perspective it can be show us new paths. Change the way you look at things and your life will change.
