About Efthymia
Efthymia is a designer, maker, and silversmith based in Nicosia, Cyprus. Working from her studio, she handcrafts each piece in sterling silver and collaborates with skilled local artisans. Committed to sustainability, she follows a made-to-order and small batch production model that minimizes waste and supports a slow, thoughtful production process.
​
Her work is rooted in storytelling, drawing inspiration from fantasy, romance, and the human experience. Each collection begins with a narrative or theme which often reflect her deep love for mythology, art, and peculiarities. Through her jewellery she invites others into an intimate world where craftsmanship and imagination meet.

Jewellery Care Tips
SILVER CLEANING
If you notice your silver piece losing its shine, you can use at home, friendly and non-toxic methods to clean it. A simple mix of lemon juice and baking soda diluted with some warm water applied gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush will help your piece brighten and regain its original shine. Rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a gentle cloth and to take it a step further you can use a polishing cloth and gently rub until shiny.
GOLD PLATING CARE
If a jewellery brand claims that gold-plating will last forever, I’m sorry to break it to you, but they’re lying. Although the plating uses real gold to electrochemically transfer onto other metals, it still remains a thin layer of gold. Gold-plating offers an affordable alternative to solid gold pieces but needs some extra love, care and attention. If your piece loses its gold finish, it’s proof that you are loving to wear it. We can discuss options to re-plate your piece.
For your gold-plated pieces to last longer you should avoid contact with water, perfumes, lotions, oils, alcohol, makeup, fake tan, hairspray, chlorine or any harsh chemicals.
You can gently clean your gold-plated jewellery with dish soap and a soft-bristled toothbrush in lukewarm water. Dry thoroughly with a gentle towel.
