OUR STORY
Hermina is a selection of timeless pieces influenced by a rich heritage rooted in Greek mythology and art.
The elements of asymmetry, roughness and appreciation of tradition give birth to unique jewelry leading the mind to a journey adorned with the sights and sounds of Greek summer life.
With a deep love and respect for the beauty of the imperfect, to which we all owe our uniqueness, we create small treasures to be passed on from mothers to daughters, from elders to youngers.

SUSTAINABILITY
Ethically sourced, consciously crafted jewelry.
At Hermina Athens, we believe that the concept of ‘fine jewelry’ goes beyond craftsmanship and style.
All Hermina Athens jewelry is designed, and hand crafted in house, using ethically sourced gemstones and precious metals, where possible, from the local area, significantly reducing our carbon footprint. We are a team who cares about the environment, our employees, and customers.
We are committed to responsible sourcing and ethical practices.
Our endeavors include:
– Recycled silver
– Local production and craftsmanship
– Ethically sourced leather
– Recycled silk, with all silk cords meticulously handsewn from repurposed Indian sarees.
– Eco-friendly bags
– Recyclable jewelry packages
– Cultured freshwater pearls
We are constantly looking for ways, big and small, to adapt and change to sustainable practices in every segment of our company.
THE DESIGNER
Hermina Athens was founded in 2012 by Konstantina Pantelous.
The name Hermina is inspired by her daughter’s name, and it IS also the female equivalent of ‘Hermes’, the Ancient Greek God of travel and trade.
Translator as a main profession, she used constructing jewelry as a way to express herself creatively.
