“I bought the 1958 Saridis credenza for our entrance hall and Eleftheria personally drove it to Kifisia in the snow. The provenance card sits in a drawer with our wedding photographs. RelicHome does not sell furniture; they sell objects that already belong.”

“I have specced RelicHome on six private projects in Glyfada and one boutique hotel in Hydra. Andreas built me a bespoke walnut bar that the client described as 'the only piece in the house with a soul'. The trade programme is the most considered I have seen in Greece.”
Theo Markesinis
interior designer at Studio Kalimera — 5 stars
“I flew in for a weekend, walked into the atelier on Megalou Alexandrou and walked out the next week the owner of a 1900 gilded oval mirror, a marquetry side table, and a Murano vase. The white-glove delivery to Berlin arrived in eleven days, perfectly crated. Marina even rewaxed the mirror frame at no charge after a tiny shipping mark.”
Anneliese Brandt
German collector based in Berlin — 5 stars
“We rented eighteen pieces from RelicHome for the period drama 'Salt of the Aegean'. Stelios spent three nights in our warehouse re-fitting a chaise to take a stunt seat. Three of the pieces went on to be sold to the cast. Nobody else in Athens treats production buyers like adults.”

art director, Greek Film Centre — 5 stars
“My grandfather's writing desk had been in our family for ninety years and the inlay was lifting in three places. The on-site survey from Andreas was honest about what could and could not be saved; the repair quote was a third of what a Kolonaki dealer asked. The desk came back in six weeks, with the original ink stain my grandfather made in 1962 still visible.”
