Cosmo Chaos brings the ancient techniques of glyptography
(micro sculpture) into the forum of contemporary jewelry
design. Maria Apostopoulou, trained by Master Nick Kielty
Lambrinides, a man considered to be the most important glyptoraphers
still alive, heads up this diverse team of glyptographers,
gemologists, and goldsmiths.
Maria's vision is one similar to the ancient glyptographers,
portraying the universe and life around them through expressive
carvings. Their subjects include metaphysical scenes, explosive
scenes, mythological landscapes and ancient symbols. The
result of which is a collection of jewelry bearing intriguing
titles such as Eco Poem, Ocean Galaxy, Mystic Helix, and
Narcissus.
The jewelry is made from 18k yellow or with gold and precious/semi-precious
stones and gems. The distinction in each hand made piece
is on the metal's texture and meticulous glyptography on
the stone. The high quality of craftsmanship is obvious.
Since 1994, Cosmo Chaos has carved their own name in the
Greek market, while also exploring opportunities in Spain
and New York (a former client of Neiman Marcus). For a more
thorough look at their collections and/or for information
on prices or placing an order you may visit their their

plan to visit Greece, you will find a collection of their
works at Vergina Gallery inside the Plaka!
