Meet Maria: The Mom, Entrepreneur and Heart Behind Hellenic Chique

Hello, everyone! I’m Maria, the proud founder and owner of Hellenic Chique, a small business born from my love for jewelry, my Greek heritage, and my entrepreneurial spirit. As a busy mom of two amazing kids, I know the hustle and heart it takes to pursue your dreams, and Hellenic Chique is mine—a passion project that has blossomed into a brand I’m so proud to share with you.

At Hellenic Chique, we specialize in handcrafted and curated jewelry inspired by the timeless beauty of Greece. From delicate bracelets to statement necklaces, sparkling earrings, and one-of-a-kind accessories, each piece in our collection tells a story of artistry, culture, and elegance. Many of these pieces are lovingly handmade by me, while others are curated from local and Greek artisans whose craftsmanship embodies the spirit of Hellenic design.

As a mom, my days are a whirlwind of dance competitions, school pickups, and endless snacks (any other moms out there relate?). But I’ve always believed that it’s essential to make time for the things that light up your soul. For me, that’s designing and creating jewelry. Whether it’s stringing beads for a custom bracelet or sketching a new earring design, I pour my heart into every piece, knowing that each one will find its perfect home with someone who loves it as much as I do.

As an entrepreneur, my journey hasn’t been without its challenges. Balancing family life, running a business, and finding time for myself is no small feat. But it’s also incredibly rewarding. Watching Hellenic Chique grow and seeing my designs worn by women who appreciate their beauty and meaning is a feeling unlike any other.

Through Hellenic Chique, I aim to celebrate the elegance of Hellenic culture while empowering women to feel confident and radiant in every moment—whether you’re wearing a bold necklace for a night out, stacking bracelets for your everyday look, or gifting someone special with a piece of Greek-inspired jewelry they’ll treasure forever.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Your support allows me to pursue my passion while also being the best mom, wife, and entrepreneur I can be. If you haven’t yet, I’d love for you to explore the Hellenic Chique collection and discover the pieces that speak to you.

Here’s to celebrating beauty, culture, and the power of chasing your dreams—one stunning piece of jewelry at a time.
