THE DESIGN STORY

In Greek mythology, Ariadne, daughter of the king of Crete, fell in love with the Athenian hero Theseus and, with a guiding thread or glittering jewels, helped him escape the Labyrinth after he slew the Minotaur.

Our Ariadne choker reimagines this fable through entwined, handcrafted strands, accented with a shield-like emblem and a jewel-like sphere on either end. Rendered in a gold-plated finish, the piece curves elegantly around the neck, offering a bold yet refined statement inspired by devotion, guidance, and quiet strength.

ETHOS

Produced in a family run workshop of 7 workmen and women, our pieces are exclusively carved and crafted by hand in Athens, using Ancient Greek jewellery-making techniques and silversmithing. As champions of slow production, we create only small quantities per design. If a piece is sold out you are welcome to place a pre-order, which has a three week turnaround period, for a piece to be made exclusively for you. Unique designs that are not part of our core collection of YSSO Icons, will no longer be available once they sell out. Explore more about our story in the article about YSSO in the New York Times.
