The beginning of September = New beginning and a new collaboration ❤️rossa x
I had the pleasure of meeting while vacationing in Santorini, one of my all time favorite place!! We connected instantly, kept in touch and now this!!
Meet Marilena 🇬🇷
Born and raised in Northen Greece, Marilena was always passionate about mechanics. After she finished school, she studied mechanical engineering. Always surrounded by wood due to her father’s profession, who owns a small factory that produces wooden boxes for vegetables and fruit, she became familiar with the wooden element. Sculpturing wooden objects began as a hobby, turned into a passion and then a profession.
After a long time of testing and designing she ended up with her first pair of wooden sunglasses. As she realised that the feedback from her friends and social circle was very positive, she began designing and manufacturing new designs that made up her first collection.
It took her months to find a proper name to match the potential that she had in mind. So Pavone Rossa, was the one. In Italian means Red Female Peacock which is dominant, passionate, smart and yet beautiful.
Red for passion and love, because she thinks that only with these two values one can fully live and succeed. Feminine, because of the importance and vital role of women in life. And peacock, because this bird symbolises, among other things, the beauty, royalty and pride that is hidden inside us.
