Furniture becomes sculpture, retail becomes ritual, design becomes story.

Meet Leopoldo. Born from wool, laughter, and a little bit of magic in the highlands of Chiapas, this rare white jaguar traveled by sea and followed the north wind all the way to Athens. White jaguars are said to be omens of luck and guardians of dreams — and Leopoldo, with his midnight stitches and confident stride, is both.

He now rests at The Anthologist Ark, alongside chimeras, dolphins, and dragons, each one handmade, each one carrying its own mythology. But Leopoldo holds a special place: he was the favorite creature of Stella, Andria’s mother, and a nod to the very first stuffed animal Andria dreamed of as a little girl in a toymaker’s shop long ago.

Children swear he moves when no one is looking. Adults feel braver in his presence.

Some stories find their way back to us — often in the most unexpected forms. 🤍🐆

Our ceramics are hand-painted in red clay in an Athens workshop alongside an artisan from a long line of Crete craftsmen, each piece commissioned by our founder as a meditation on geometry, symmetry, and the merging of two worlds. New to the collection, our water jugs work as well for water or juices as they do filled with fresh flowers on your tablescape — poetic, simple and primitive in style, each piece hand-shaped and handcrafted.

Available in all Anthologist locations in the red dot, psari, and pagoni designs.

Born of fire, painted by hand, worn like a memory. 🔥

Chimera Cloisonné Pendant on Handmade Link Chain:
A myth reborn in fire and enamel. This statement pendant features Anthologist’s trademarked Chimera—part lion, part goat, part serpent—cast in gold-plated brass and hand-painted in vibrant cloisonné enamel. Every scale and curve echoes the ancient art of mosaic and the golden shimmer of Byzantine iconography—craft traditions that have long shaped our visual language.

Suspended from a bold, handmade link chain, this version carries weight—both literal and symbolic. A grounding piece, made for those who move through the world with presence, memory, and power.

A relic of transformation, forged in color, mythology, and intention.

Summer loading: Introducing Karolin Van Loon at Anthologist 🌴

Beauty, reimagined from the inside out. Antwerp-based Karolin Van Loon came to cosmetics not through the beauty industry, but through interior architecture and a lifelong devotion to colour, mineral texture, and organic form. Her fine jewelry practice and her beauty line share the same source of inspiration: the crystalline depth of agate geodes. The result is a collection, vegan, cruelty-free, and made in Belgium, that carries genuine artistic intention in every shade.

She guarded the home. She commanded the sea. Meet the Goddess Key Ring — a talisman for your everyday carry. One side bears the Minoan Snake Goddess, ancient protector of the home. The other, the sacred octopus — symbol of abundance, sustenance, and power in Cretan civilization. 🐍🐙

All of our brass objects are hand-cast using ancient methods including sand molds. The last step of the production process is a hand-polishing to showcase each piece’s inherent brilliance. Some imperfections are natural.

Some things are passed down through gesture — a way of gathering flowers, setting the table, and choosing objects that make a house feel lived in and loved.

This month, we’re thinking of the mothers, grandmothers, chosen family, and women who shape the rituals we carry with us through beauty and everyday gestures. ✨

Seen here, the Anthologist Blown Glass Amphora. Art directed by our founder and created by one of Greece’s last remaining glassblowing studios, each amphora is a tribute to the time-honored craft of glasswork. 💐

Spring gatherings call for objects with a story. Olives, cheese, the first figs of the season — our stone dishes and marble platters, with hand-cast brass objets using ancient methods, were made to hold whatever the season brings, and everything after. 💫

Born from wool, laughter, and a little bit of magic in the highlands of Chiapas, meet Leopoldo, the White Jaguar.

Pale as milk with midnight stitching, white jaguars are said to be omens of luck and guardians of dreams, appearing only to those who carry a story worth protecting. After a long journey across mountains and seas, Leopoldo followed the north wind all the way to Athens — where mythology still breathes and handmade creatures find their kin.

He is now home in the Anthologist Ark, alongside chimeras, dragons, and dolphins.
