History
This collection was inspired by the Sirens, the Greek mythology sea nymphs whore lived on the island of Anthemusa and according to myth used to attract passing sailors to sail their ships toward them. According to Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, the Argonauts and Odysseus (Ulysses) had to employ some trick to cover their ears while passing their island. Our collection similarly to the sirens, it is definitely going to attract others attention with its quality and design.


History
In art and architecture, a meander is a decorative border constructed from a continuous line, shaped into a repeated motif. Such a design is also called the Greek Fret or Greek Key design, although these are modern words. The name "meander" recalls the twisting and turning path of the Maeander River. Meanders were among the most important symbols in ancient Greece; they, perhaps, symbolized infinity and unity; many ancient Greek temples incorporated the sign of the meander.
