The philosophy of Anastazio

Anastazio Kotsopoulos is the founder and creative director of the jewelry brand based in Athens that bears his name, Anastazio. It is one of the emerging designers of large patrol of Hellenic jewelers. He started working with his older brother, Agis Kostopoulos, who acted as his teacher. The debut was a success, took place through the jewelers of Santorini, an island that is home to a vibrant international tourism. Through the years the style of Anastazio has also showed out in the international arena: jewels with intricate sketch, such as the labyrinth of Minos, along with iconic signs inspired by ancient cultures, from the greek folklore, and uses textures and geometries. Yet he calls it a simple style. In fact the shape of rings, earrings and bracelets is rather complex and for ethnic nothing. Gold and precious stones, treated with meticulous workmanship, are the characteristics of his collections, who do not give to convey abstract concepts. No coincidence that Greece is the birthplace of philosophy. Margherita Donato
