In the Search of the Spirit of Pylos

Beach glass and brass, collected from Navarino Bay

Two hundred fragments, shaped by the sea and time.
A reflection on the spirit of Pylos—what endures, and what calls us back.

In the Bronze Age, carnelian traveled across seas, a prized stone in Mycenaean trade.
This fragment I picked from the shores of Navarino Bay carries the same spirit of journey—
a reminder that the dialogue between sea, stone, and human hands is as old as time.

A soul recognizes its shape.
A butterfly paused today—right where its ancient form rests in metal.
As if time folded gently, just for a breath.

Fragments shaped by time and tide.
Collected from the shores of Navarino Bay,
A trace of place
Not polished. Not forced. Just arranged—like memory.

"Skilled artisans crafted embossed or hammered figures, scenes, or decorative motifs onto extremely thin sheets of gold. The golden artworks exhibited in the archaeological museums of Messinia date back to the Mycenaean period"

From the past

This pair of earrings is inspired from one of the findings that we can see in the temporary exhibition entitled "Princes of Pylos.Late bronge age treasures of Messenia"which takes place in Kalamata archaeological museum.

The exhibition reflects the Mycenaean Messenian cultural identity, beginning to take shape at the end of the middle Helladic period and evolving until the end of 13th century BCE ,when almost the entire Messenian areawas part of the territory of Pylos,the main administrative, commercial, economic and religious center located in the palace at ano Englianos.

"They found Nestor and his sons preparing a feast, roasting meat, and mixing wine in bright bowls." – Homer, Odyssey 3.6-8

When Telemachus arrived in Pylos, he was welcomed with wine poured from elegant flasks into shining cups—an age-old gesture of hospitality.

This necklace is inspired by the Linear B ideograms,found in ancient Pylos.

I imagined a form that of a wine vessel that once carried the essence of celebration,tradition and shared stories over cups of deep red wine.

A tribute to the Mycenaean past , reimagined in silver and gold.

The stones I picked is garnet that it's color resembles the strong color the wine.Handmade here in Pylos, where the echoes of Homer’s verses still linger.

"A guest comes to your house: remember that they may be a god in disguise."
(The Odyssey, Book 1)

In Homeric Pylos, King Nestor welcomed Telemachus with open arms, exemplifying the ancient Greek value of xenia. As a symbol of hospitality and protection, Nestor gifted him a gold necklace adorned with amethyst, representing clarity and safeguarding. This meaningful gesture reflected the wisdom Telemachus sought on his journey to uncover his father's fate.

(This is an imaginary story and jewellery inspired from the Odyssey and the Mycenaean era of Pylos)
