Modern Woven Jewelry by Sofia Paschou

How inspiring it is to see a modern designer use ancient techniques and re-imagine new ways of making jewelry!  Sofia Paschou is a Greek designer who takes all kinds of threads - linen, silk, cotton  - and weaves them into lovely pieces.  She does this on a tiny improvised loom in her Athens workshop.



Sofia explained, "I discovered my passion for traditional weaving techniques, having been raised in a family who loves Greek folk art and in my work I incorporate these techniques in contemporary designs."

Her designs are bold and colorful with minimal use of beads. You can see more of her work on her Facebook.
