The story behind Inspire Jewels

I am Eri, the designer and creator behind Inspire Jewels. My journey with jewelry began in 2011, completely by chance. While I was studying to become a kindergarten teacher, I wanted to start a hobby and that hobby happened to be jewelry. Since I have always loved creating things with my hands, this passion quickly became a one-way path.

As the years went by, even though jewelry was not my main profession, I worked on it every day. In 2020, I decided to take the next step and open my own business, with a workshop and showroom.

The name “Inspire”

The name Inspire came from the search for something that would, in a way, reflect my own name. A friend of mine came up with “Inspire,” where the ending “IRE” is actually “ERI” reversed.

Showroom and workshop

The space consists of the workshop, where you will find me creating and the showroom, where you can visit, meet me in person, see, try on, and choose the pieces you love. It is located at Agiou Ioannou 18–20, on the first floor, in Agia Paraskevi. You can also request a unique piece of jewelry designed based on your own idea.

Materials

The main material I use is silver, while I also create gold pieces upon request. I have a special love for semi-precious stones, which often play a leading role in my collections.

What jewelry means to me

The reason I create jewelry, beyond simply loving it, is because I believe that every piece carries a story within it. It may represent a period of your life, a memory, or a loved one who gave it to you.


Think about each of your jewelry pieces. I’m sure every single one has something to say.


If you would like me to help you find your own story through a piece of jewelry, I would be happy to create it together with you.
