My name is Alexandru Anghel, the pilgrim behind the YPOMONI concept. Our story begins with my pilgrimages to Greece, and particularly to Mount Athos, where I discovered a burning passion for handcrafted Byzantine jewelry and authentic Greek icons. This sacred place, known for its deep spirituality and centuries-old traditions, opened my eyes to a world of special beauty and significance.
During these travels, I had the opportunity to meet special people, true keepers of Orthodox traditions and Byzantine art. Each of them had a unique story, but they all shared the same love for Orthodoxy and the art that has flowed for thousands of years from this never-ending fountain of Orthodoxy. I met monks who dedicated their lives to prayer and needlework, artisan jewelers who combined traditional techniques with contemporary designs, and skilled people who created truly special objects. Each meeting was a lesson in humility and mastery, strengthening my desire to bring this sacred art closer to the people of Romania.
Our jewelry is handcrafted with great care and love by these Greek artisan monks and jewelers. Each piece is prayerfully created with meticulous attention to detail, using the highest quality materials. Silver, gold, precious and semi-precious stones are transformed into true works of art, each model having its own story and meaning. Each piece of jewelry is more than just an object; it is a testimony to the faith, tradition and dedication of those who create it. It is a link between the wearer and the millennial traditions of Orthodoxy. With your help, we also manage to contribute and help the monks with whom we collaborate. By purchasing our products, part of the money goes to the monks we collaborate with, helping them and supporting their secluded life.
