Delphine & Natty's opinion

The "Achilles' Shield" design is directly inspired by the famous shield described in Homer's Iliad, a mythical object forged by Hephaestus, god of fire, for Achilles. The shield was a symbolic work of art, representing the entire world and human life. The earrings feature this epic motif, blending power and elegance.

The house Miller

Ilías Lalaoúnis is a Greek goldsmith who launched his luxury jewelry business in 1969. His 22-carat gold jewelry, inspired by the history of Ancient Greece, is created using highly precise manual techniques such as hammering, granulation, and hand weaving. These unique pieces, sometimes worn by Jackie Kennedy Onassis, feature extremely rich details, some of which are pre-loved and can be found at Maison ELOE.

The history of jewelry

Founded in 1969 by Ilias Lalaounis, the house is renowned for its jewelry inspired by Greek antiquity, reinterpreted with a contemporary twist. Ilias Lalaounis, born in 1920 in Athens, came from a family of goldsmiths and watchmakers from Delphi, a lineage that shaped his love of art and history.
