Lefflow Art Studio Anastasia Koutsabela
Playful time earrings

Original and uniquely designed minimalist earrings in geometric form. Entirely hand made from 925 sterling silver with a superb matte finish. Details include a unique gold-plated surface inside.

Approximate earrings size: height 4,7 cm X width 3 cm X wide 1,3 cm.

These earrings are an exclusive, three-dimensional creation, seeing Anastasia play with shapes. They represent the happiness and playful times a woman experiences in her lifetime.

Inspired by the extraordinary ancient Antikythera mechanism, jewelry designer Anastasia Koutsampela created the Antikythera Collection. She experiments with the universal idea of time, aiming to transform its rigid reference in to an object of art, full of flexibility and semantic interpretation.

The gears featured in this collection, symbolize the motion equating life to evolution and to creation. The gears also represent artistically, the continuous evolving flow of humanity.

Every gear tooth or cog is designed by hand, beginning with a sketch and then it’s shaped and modeled in wax. Afterwards, Anastasia starts to assemble the silver, cutting and bonding together the individual pieces.

  Anastasia Koutsampela is an eminent attorney at law as well as a passionate Greek artist, always ready to fall in love with a new design project.

  In a digital world where everything is dominated by computers, Anastasia remains faithful to the traditional processes of design, creating jewelry made exclusively by hand.

  Following the ancient art of jewelry casting, she designs every single piece in her sketch book and afterwards she creates the wax molds where silver will be poured, in order to transform the abstract idea of a ring or a pendant into a masterpiece of jewelry.

  For Anastasia, besides the quality of the craftsmanship worked to a flawless finish, jewelry is a representation of communication and therefore symbolisms have been an integral part of her designs. Her pieces speak about the human interaction and are disguised with secret meanings and myriads of interpretations.

  Anastasia’s work has been featured in the Greek press and group art exhibitions and now is travelling across Europe in order to meet new fellow companions.

  She is the founder of Lefflow Art Studio, her signature brand, inspired by the fact that she is a left handed designer.
