“Nature, every shade between light and darkness, the change of seasons, the circle of life and death, the transition, and stories. Stories and ancient stones and old songs, little fragments of truth left behind by souls who lived and loved and laughed and cried. Fragments of truth that still survive in the warmth of a flame, in the wildness of the wind, in the unapologetic freedom of the sea.”

Our Story - Where Art Meets Jewellery

In Latin, Dea Mater means “Mother Goddess,” a term steeped in the ancient power of the earth, creation, and the birth of everything. From these primal forces, we started our journey. We draw inspiration from the raw beauty of the earth, transforming silver into jewellery that reflects both art and craftsmanship.

Founded in Athens, Greece, Dea Mater is a fusion of artistic vision and silversmithing. Our founder, originally a painter, used colour to bring stories to life on canvas. Over time, this passion evolved, finding a new form in silver. What began as an exploration of art became a dedication to crafting unique, wearable pieces. Silver is our medium of choice, not just for its elegance but for its unique properties. We cherish its ability to reflect light, emotions, and stories. It carries a quiet strength, a natural brilliance, and a versatility that allows it to take on intricate details and expressive forms. Every piece is handcrafted in our Athens studio using high-quality 925 sterling silver, sometimes enriched with hand-painted details that add depth and color. This blend of silversmithing and art results in jewellery that is both distinctive and enduring. We are committed to quality and sustainability. Every item is 100% handcrafted and created with care, free from mass production, and designed to stand the test of time. Our collections celebrate the harmony between tradition and innovation, blending the rich history of Greek artistry with contemporary design. Our studio in Athens is where every piece of jewellery comes to life, and with a deep understanding of the craft, we love creating ethically and ecologically made pieces, that reflect the wild beauty of the world around us. Each piece is a story, a testament to the merging of art, metal, and imagination.
