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. The snail is Costis’ favorite creature; its shell became a source of true inspiration. The earlobe lays behind the outer layer of the “shell” and settles on this earring as comfortably, as the snail lives within its shell.
