He worked with several kinds of metal, crafting jewellery for the actors performing classic Greek tragedies. Discovering his passion for this particular kind of art, he went on to further develop his craftmanship at the workshop of Mathaios Xatzis where, after a formal education, he designed entire collections for this company. The primary material of his work at this time was silver.
