Katerina Psoma's new project

Katerina Psoma is known for her jewelry but last week I spotted her with a new project of her. Handwoven handbags, inspired by the greek folklore! Inspired by the tourist shops on the greek islands and the traditional weaving looms she is preparing a collection with handwoven bags. Here a snapshot of such a bag.


Katerina developed her love of vintage materials whilst she studied History of Art at Rome and London. During her doctoral studies, she travelled around the world to broaden her artistic horizons. These trips inspired her to forage for jewellery, unique trinkets and charms in an array of flea markets. Based in these findings, she created the first personalised pieces.


Each piece is unique, handmade and numbered. Coupling vintage charms, semi precious stones, wooden and odd murano beads, she has never strayed from creativity. Can't wait to see more of her new project!
