Harvest Earrings

All handcrafted objects need love and care to maintain their beauty.
For jewelry that has been gold-, silver- or rhodium-plated expect the plating to fade over time. This happens unavoidably to all plated jewelry but with extra care you can extend the life of the plating. The speed at which the plating fades depends on multiple factors like your skincare products, level of perspiration or even your skin PH. Avoid contact with soap, perfume, hairspray, lotion or other face or body products. We recommend that you remove your jewelry when showering, swimming, washing your hands, styling your hair or using cleaning agents, as this will damage the plating.

For solid sterling silver jewelry, expect the silver to tarnish. Silver is a metal that reacts to air and humidity and therefore gets oxidized. It is an unavoidable natural process but thankfully it can be reversed (see below how to clean your jewelry).

Be extra careful with jewelry with stones and pearls. Stones are fragile and may break, crack or get scratched. Be careful not to knock or hit your jewelry against a solid object.

Store your jewelry away from direct sunlight and in their original packaging or in velvet jewelry boxes to avoid damage from air, humidity and contact with other items. Make sure that the storage area has low humidity. You can place a piece of chalk or a small bag of silica gel in the storage area to minimize tarnish.

Clean your sterling silver or fine jewelry by soaking them for a few minutes in warm soapy water. Then rinse well and gently rub them with a soft microfiber cloth. Do not using paper towels or harder cloths to avoid scratching. Do not immerse your gemstone or pearl jewelry to jewelry cleaning or polishing solutions. Use transparent alcohol on cotton to clean the marble parts of your jewelry.

If in doubt, it is preferable to seek professional cleaning services from a goldsmith or a reputed jewelry shop.

Lefflow Art Studio

Lefflow Art Studio, a contemporary art and jewelry workshop, was founded in 2018 by Natasa Koutsampela and her partners. It is a place where they work, move forward and express themselves through art.

Natasa, the designer of the brand, despite her studies in Law, could never give up her natural talent for painting and fine arts. Since 2011 she began to experiment with the design and making of jewelry as a creative expression and she attended various courses and seminars in goldsmithing.

With every collection of jewelry, Natasa tries to approach and attribute the meaning of time through our actions, such as motion-inertia, evolution, human contact, contact with nature and the primordial instinct of preservation and survival.

In her latest collection “Panspermia”, she is inspired by her homeland -the Thessalian plain- and gives breath to her memories in an innovative and minimalist rendering of wheat. For her the wheat represents an ancient fruit, symbol of human survival, which in the Greek tradition was connected with the great feast of “Theros”, the rituals and the customs of the harvest. Each piece of jewelry in this collection is made entirely by hand and this gives each piece an absolute uniqueness.

Natasa creates jewelry from silver, bronze, gold, upcycled materials, paper, acrylic colors and enamel.

Her work has been presented at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City Jewelry Week, Milan Design Week, Collectiva Meeting in Porto Portugal, Who’s Next in Paris and various others exhibitions in Greece and around the world. She has also been awarded the 2nd prize in the Solid Metal category of a “A Jewel Made in Greece” competition.
