THE STORY
Rooted in classical lore and reimagined through storytelling, this design is part of the Mýthos collection, a tribute to the enduring power of Greek mythology.
Honouring Argos is based around ancient Greek art, pottery, poetry and literature. It features an elegant protagonist, representing Argos, Odyssey's loyal companion.
Below, an excerpt concerning Argos from Sabina's collection texts, which she penned in an epithetic, Homeric style:
_______________________________
As rosy-fingered dawn appears, amber-eyed Argos lays, quiet as a new-born fawn, in the Ithacan Garden of his master, resourceful Odysseus, awaiting his final command. So, he rests beneath a clay plaque celebrating the famous canines of Greek lore, and heavenly Aphrodite enrobes him in a lustrous draped himation and a beaten silver wreath to crown his head. And he is bestowed a collar of the finest clay, delicately painted with images of divine birds, and a wreath of fine narcissus is laid upon him.
