Welcome to Anthemion Art Store
Nestled in the heart of Oia, Santorini, our creative journey began 23 years ago—when the village was quiet, with fewer than ten visitors a week. Today, millions come to this magical place, yet Anthemion remains a timeless sanctuary of handcraft and emotion.
Meet Vasiliki Savvani, the artist and owner behind every creation. Her unwavering dedication to detail and quality shines through in her handmade marionettes, masks, and dolls—pieces cherished by collectors around the world. Each winter, Vasiliki devotes her time to sourcing exquisite fabrics and materials, crafting works of art that grace her store throughout the high season.
Our boutique also features a curated selection of silver and gold jewelry from talented Greek designers—each piece as thoughtfully crafted and inspired as our marionettes.
