Welcome to
LEGAKIS JEWELERS
Background
Both, my wife and I were born in Athens.

We visited Lesvos, an island in the N.E. Aegaean Sea, in 1986 during
our holidays.
Our steps led us to Kalloni where we finally settled and we have been
living there since then.
We had been creating jewels as amateurs but in 1989 we set up a
workshop in Kalloni where we worked professionally making hand made
jewels. Since 1991 we have been taking part in exhibitions of our
field such Gold-Silver of PO .VA.CO. and Geek creations of A.O which
is the best exhibition as far as silver jewels are concerned in
Greece.
We used to sell only wholesale. In 1995 we started our own retail shop
in Kalloni where we display not only our creations but also selected
jewels made by Greek artists.
Our work
Our designs are inspired from the Byzantine period of Greek
history but since inspiration and ideas do not get moulded so our
designs have the plainness and harmony of the classic period combined
with the simplicity and sensitivity of popular craftsmen of the 18 th
century.
We attempt to join various techniques and follow modern trends of our
age.
Our aim is to create jewels that not only last in time but at the same
time fascinate
Besides usual sets of jewels (bracelets, neklaces, earrings, rings) or
single items we create keyrings, string of beads (chaplet), money
clips, cuff-link, wedding wreaths and small boxes.
Materials
We usually prefer semi precious stones such us garnet,
amber, lapis lazouli, coral, amethyst, agate like carneol, turquise, but
also precious such as rubies, pearls, and opals.
We intend to integrate the stones in the design trying to enchance the
beauty of the jewel.
Most of our jewels are made of silver 925 but several designs combine
silver with gold 18 carats while there are also some gold ones.
Precious metals particularly silver have an inner glow of their own
which no technique or treatment can fully liberate.
Only when they are worn do jewels show their real beauty.
So don't hesitate to wear them.
