Why nhaos?
Discover high-quality jewelry from the ancient Greek tradition at nhaos!
Our brand combines the passion of a blacksmith with oriental style. The jewelry is made by hand and sold by our 83-year-old Grandpa G. from Athens.
We would like to tell you more about the history of our brand:
It is a long and ancient tradition of a passionate blacksmith from Greece.
It all started in 1932, when my great-grandfather settled in a small Greek village near Giannena after the First World War and pursued his passion for blacksmithing.
Great-grandpa M. Diamantis started forging swords out of silver. At that time, a sword with his signature was considered something very special in the village and the surrounding area.
What started as a small business quickly grew into a large company. The demand for high quality and high quality swords increased quickly.
His sons-in-law support him in bringing the business to the people.
One of the sons-in-law, Grandpa G. Iliadis (Papou), who comes from the Black Sea, was able to assert himself due to his extraordinary sales skills, his knowledge and his good eye for aesthetics.
He also knew the preferences of oriental culture from his hometown of Kars, today's Turkey, which is why he focused on processing the raw materials gold and silver.
The product range has been expanded to include modern jewelry.
The era of swordsmithing was slowly coming to an end and in the meantime Papou opened a shop in Athens in 1970 to sell the unique jewelry that was being forged at the same time.
As you can see, our brand is a legacy of a long tradition. That's why we, Jasmin Iliadis and my husband, continued the tradition online. Buy now from nhaos and let our combination of innovation and technology convince you!
What starts small has the potential to grow big as long as we don't forget the passion behind it.
