Based in Greece, Anthologist is a masterclass in using objects to tell a story, offering an “inspiration-to-implementation” concept for hotels, restaurants, and hospitality venues worldwide.
Revered by hospitality and design insiders for its commitment to cultural sustainability and craftsmanship, Anthologist’s collections span jewelry, ceramics, brass objets d’art, and more—each piece handcrafted by Greek artisans and global collaborators.
