Contact us at: [email protected] Minas was born in 1938 in Athens.

He trained as a goldsmith who from the age of 15 knew exactly what he wanted to achieve. At the age of 30 he went to America. He lived and worked for 11 years in New York City, as a freelance and established his presence as a designer, creating pieces in gold and silver as solid materials, but never uses stones. In 1980, he moved his studio back to Athens to begin a new limited production of perso

nally signed pieces. Minas has continued this tradition and still personally signs every piece he creates. In 1983 begins to experiment in industrial design and applies his engineering skills to the improvement of his workshop. From 1986 devotes himself to architectural design and constructs an extraordinary house on the Greek island of Mykonos marrying Cycladic Tradition with modern ideas. In 1987 designs and constructs the "Astra" Bar in Mykonos, followed by a collection of designer pieces. In 1990 designs furniture and works in marble, wood and stainless steel. In 1992 his cooperation with George Jensen silver smithy, on a range of designer's products, as well on a large collection of silver and gold jewelry. Four years later, he presents his entire work in an exhibition in Copenhagen, the Cultural Capital of Europe, for 1996 . Minas is the first non Scandinavian artist to join the Danish firm. The first store opens in Mykonos in 1998. The Designer's touch is recongnizable through his creations from the very first moment. In 1999, George Jensen hosted a series of exhibitions in New York, London and Paris. On December 2005, he opened his flagship store in Athens.

A piece of the Aegean, captured in motion.

The MINAS Marble Pendant, sculpted silver embracing a swirl of deep blue and white, each piece carrying its own unique pattern.

Fluid. Tactile. Impossible to repeat.

Made to feel less like jewellery, more like something found somewhere between sea, stone and light.

MINAS. Made in Greece.

Wish you were here. Or maybe not.

Mail delivered from the middle of the Aegean.
No address. No explanation. Just summer.

An absurd little postcard from Greece by MINAS.

There is a rhythm to a Greek summer.

The warmth of the sun.
The texture of natural fibres.
The beauty of objects shaped by time.

In Mykonos, simplicity is never ordinary.

It becomes a way of living.

The best thing about Greece
has never been the weather.

It’s the light.

The way it falls across stone.
The way it dances on the sea.
The way it makes even the simplest moments unforgettable.

Some places teach you to slow down.

This is one of them.

Some jewellery follows trends.

Some follows instinct.

These earrings were designed to move with the body, catching light from every angle without ever competing for attention.

For those who believe the strongest statements are made quietly.
