bio:
Angelos Konstantakatos studied architecture in Athens. He was involved in studies and constructions of houses and shops, while at the same time he specialized in lighting studies, designing in three dimensions with 3D programs.His hobby since he was a child was tinkering. This, along with many years of friction in construction, learned the secrets of many construction professions. Using this knowledge and experimenting in his workshop since 2012 when he was introduced to art jewelry, he began to combine traditional and original techniques, in order to transform unconventional materials into jewelry. He believes that jewelry should be as unique, as the person who rejoys it.

statement:
A symbol for me, perhaps, is the mushroom. Not because it is something from nature, which anyway inspires me with its materials and organic forms, but because the mushroom is something I admire. It has its own will, its own energy that complements me. It always does something more than I have thought of, it shows me ways in which it wants me to treat it, it always puts its signature - regardless of whether everyone sees only me as the creator. I know to what extent I am me and which part of my creation is its own touch. Whatever I do, whatever material I work with, I have the mushroom in my mind as an example that anything is possible, as long as you can see and understand.
