After studying economics and law at the University of Athens, he joined his uncle’s jewellery firm, where, apprenticed as a goldsmith, he learned the skills that were to determine his future as a master craftsman. Prompted by a passion for history, he began studying the art of his ancestors. In the 1950’s he was inspired by Greek museum arte- facts and transformed them into jewellery by reviving age-old techniques while also introducing the use of modern technology. His creative aim was to convey the spiritual and symbolic link of an object to its historical past, the art of neglected techniques, such as granulation, filigree, hand-weaving and hand-hammering. Lalaounis founded the Greek Jeweller’s Association and exhibited his first collection in 1957, the archeological collection, inspired by Classical, Hellenistic and Minoan-Mycenaean art, with modern jewels steeped in antiquity. In the 1960’s, after his uncle passed away, Ilias Lalaounis started his own company.
