If one could encapsulate Costis’ work in one word, that word would be “different”. Costis loves to observe nature; the sea, the flowers, the animals, the world we live in. These are the forms he re-creates through his jewelry, by enhancing the sculptural element in any object; by taking the ordinary and elevating it into the realm of extraordinary. Costis is intrigued by the challenge of elevating a simple, everyday item into a piece of art. His “Pencil” Collection brings out the beauty of a pencil, which as an object may seem trivial, but it is actually the mere medium of his creativity: he uses his pencil to create his drawings and then his jewelry; a perfect conversational piece. A perfect example of how Costis can turn an everyday object - and his main tool - the pencil, into an impressive piece of jewelry. Featured in Vogue, Vogue China and Architectural Digest.
