My values
"My goal is to create jewelry that stands out, in original and special designs"
The jewelry you will find at emmanuela.gr are all original and exclusive designs by Emmanuela Alevizopoulou. We photograph the original creations, many of which are not reproduced, since they may have been made using natural materials that are no longer available in the shapes or textures of the original. Relative fidelity is achieved for those that are reproduced, but it is still not possible to be identical to their originals.
So every piece of jewelry is unique!
It may be based on a specific design, but if you pay attention to the details you will see many differences.
"Wearing them, to be able to express through them our thoughts, feelings and declare our uniqueness"
With many years of experience in jewelry making, experimentation for the application of new and special techniques and knowledge of the properties and origin of the raw materials used, Emmanuela has managed to be able to express herself through her creations. So the jewelry she makes externalizes her thoughts and feelings. When the objects we choose to wear are identified with our psyche and have something to "say", our outfit is completed and becomes a key element of our personality. Our ring, brooch, earrings, reveal things about us, without us saying anything.
"I believe that the most beautiful things are usually hidden behind simplicity. That's why I don't think too much before I start designing a piece of jewelry. Many times I don't even make a design...I grab the tools and trust my instinct"
It is paradoxical, but the inspiration for the most successful designs arises from everyday occasions and from nature issues. Aiming for originality and simplicity, the designs are highly artistic, but at the same time intimate and "warm". Through their immediacy and the easy identification with them, the bond that we often feel with some of the objects we wear is achieved. Emmanuella makes each piece of jewelry with the hope that someone will love it. That is why she tries to create more with her soul and less with her hands. After all, the greatest artistic creations arise from a deeper part of the self, which has nothing to do with thought.
"I try to make the jewelry I make easy to acquire, hoping that its value to you will become priceless"
Emmanuela does not believe that her handmade jewelry should be expensive because, of course, it cannot be reproduced in large quantities. Everything that a person creates with his hands is unique and the assessment of its value is always subjective. Some like it and some don't. For some it is a masterpiece and for others a simple construction.
For a piece of jewelry, what really matters is that someone wants and can wear it. This is why Emmanuela defines the value of her creations with a realistic and humble approach, even though for her they are priceless!
In addition, the internet and emmanuela.gr give the creator the opportunity to directly address the buyers of her jewelry. So their prices are not burdened by commercial profit and remain at low levels, accessible to everyone!
"Many times when I make what I imagined and designed I feel like a little kid! I show it to everyone around me and I'm happy when I see in their eyes that they like what I made. By making jewelry that they like I realize a childhood dream. The biggest reward for for me, it's seeing people happy wearing one of my creations or gifting it to a loved one"
