Who we are

WHO WE ARE

“Works, for the human, inside and outside of the house”.

ATTILIO, in the center of the market of Ilioupolis, has a long history that goes back to 1968. In its space, through collaborations with renowned creators, it suggests works with a special and unique character: sculptural works, wall mounted works, art design lighting, but also utilitarian objects which frame our daily lives.

It also hosts a rich collection of contemporary Greek jewellery. All his proposals are centered on the person, his place of living or working, but also on the choice of gifts for his loved ones. The line, the thread that connects all the works, is the authenticity, the emotion that each handmade piece contains, the inspiration (and the imagination) of the creator, the high quality in its realization.

The materials that dominate are earthy, natural, tied to man, such as clay, wood, stone, blown glass or metal, but also often, new, unexpected, such as vinyl or recycled industrial aluminium. Every work has the stamp of the human hand.

The visitor to ATTILIO has the time to browse among the works – all by Greek artists – to listen to the story that each of them has to tell, to learn about the artists, to be introduced to old and new techniques.

The closing of the cycle of a visit to ATTILIO is completed with the wrapping of the gift you may choose. For us, the preparation of a package is a “ritual” and is associated with the uniqueness of each project, as well as with the attention and respect invested in its selection. For each gift we choose our materials with care and passion. No matter if unusual or strange, refined or coarse, we will combine them with special care, always striving for “packaging” to become an art.

Based on AUTHENTICITYUNIQUENESS ATTILIO will offer you gifts with an OPINION.
