reek artist Nikos Koulis applies his profound understanding of design, artistry, gemology and traditional jewelry making techniques in the creation of each piece in his eponymous collection. With a flagship store and atelier in Athens, Nikos works with master artisans who employ time-honored jewelry-making processes that allow him to realize his precise vision. A graduate gemologist, Nikos applies his passion for detail and material to his craft, working with unique diamond shapes, proprietary enameling, and gemstones hand-selected for the inclusions that give them their strong character.

The Greek influences in his designs are realized through Nikos’ contemporary framework, and are evident in the way the artist plays with light and texture, symmetry and intricacy, grandeur and minimalist simplicity. Nikos also pays homage to an Art Deco aesthetic sensibility throughout his collection. Sharp lines are juxtaposed with sensual curves, and enamel details provide bold contrasts in color. His work is a re-examination of the relationship between form and function, and every piece evokes its fundamental geometric essence.

Nikos expresses his thoughts, emotions, experiences and aesthetic through his prolific designs. The discourse between the artist and the jewel imparts a sense of intimacy, and the eclectic energy he applies to his creative process can be felt in the finished product; his work encourages his collectors to be strong, bold, determined and joyful. It is therefore not surprising that Nikos’ jewelry is collected by some of the most outspoken and confident women in the world.

His exceptional point-of-view coupled with his impeccable craftsmanship has garnered Nikos countless accolades and international acclaim, including winning several COUTURE Design Awards over the years. His ability to scale each of his collections from pieces that are awe-inspiring, red carpet-worthy to subtly sublime is incomparable and provides access to his talent to an enhanced range of jewelry collectors and enthusiasts. He continually pushes the boundaries of design, firmly establishing a collection’s primary aesthetic and then frequently enriching the collection with new styles and designs.
