We read about Constantinoupolis most famous embroidery technician, the famous Despina Argyraia, whose golden embroidement creations supplied all the Orthodox Communities during the middle of the 17th century. She used only fine materials of gold metal threads and silk. Her workshop was located near today's Besiktas and consisted of a multitude of students who took care to preserve and spread her art. When they asked her how she was doing it... her answer was one-word... Faith.
In collaboration with Sacred Tailors from all over Greece we created a fine collection of Priestly Items (Vestments, Embroidery, Covers, Rasa, etc.). each of these creations has been selected with 2 strict criteria, the experience of the Craftsman and the quality of the Materials.
