Annie Angelopoulou bio

My colourful jewellery is handcrafted with love in my two homes, in Ennis, Ireland and Greece.

I learned bead stitching from the masters in beading; Though the technicalities are pretty straightforward, nothing else is; the choice of bead colour, finish, hue; the choice of thread and needle; the design, the shape, the size, the artist’s vision of the finished artwork. Everything is interconnected and dependent on the final shape of the piece. Beadwork needs tons of patience and love for the actual process.

My inspiration comes from nature, my Greek and Hungarian heritage, and Ireland the emerald island that stole my heart. Although I am a city girl, I was always impressed by the colours in nature. The Japanese glass beads offer the most saturated colours and delightful hues appropriate for both bold and elegant jewellery. Each piece is meticulously designed and crafted by me, choosing those colours and shades that will bring an artistic balance and the wow factor to its owner. My greatest reward is to know that the piece I created brought a big smile to your face! Jewellery speaks about our personality and the way we embrace life.
