Dear all,

We have so enjoyed all your emails and calls from all over the world over the past couple of weeks!
More than anything, however, we are delighted that our 'basement nightmare' has given you the chance to purchase items of your choice at a bit of a discount!
A couple of extra bits of news below.

Best wishes from us,

Elinor and Philippa

ONLY ONE WEEK TO GO!

Up to 20% on anything of your choice

Except for our jewellery collections & provided we have it in stock.

UNTIL SATURDAY 13th FEBRUARY

We NEVER have 'sales', but......

we are in an unusual situation.....so we want you to make the most of it!

The builders are moving into the basement (again!) on Sunday 14th February to complete the final phase. A month earlier than anticipated, but we are thrilled, as it will be finished earlier so we can get on with our 10th anniversary celebrations in June!

Call us, email us or come to the shop!

Go through our website, make your choice, contact us and we'll work out what we can do for you.

You never know who is going to walk through the door at It's All Greek!

Last November, the great Mr Llewelyn-Bowen himself wandered in with a film crew!

Some of you rang and emailed to say you had seen 'HOUSE GIFT' on ITV1 on Monday 1st February. Thank you!
It will be on 'ITV i-player' for another couple of weeks or so, if you would like to watch it.

NEW!!

We really didn't need new stock at the moment, but our new marble collection arrived early!
All in 'NEW' on our website.
More to come.

Dear all,

Our best wishes to you for 2010.

Not the usual kind of email from us and it will not be pasted into our 'News & Events' section on the website this time.

Strictly For Your Eyes Only as you are in our 'Little Black Book'!

Best wishes,

Elinor and Philippa

But you NEVER have 'sales' !

No, we don't, but we are in an unusual situation.....so make the most of it!

We have decided to have the basement floor sorted as well, which is a problem as this is where our stock is......so,

We have only three weeks to clear some of our stock area. The alternative is to move all our stock upstairs (!) and close the shop for a week or two!

Up to 20% on ANY item/s ?

Yes, except for our jewellery collections & provided we have it in stock.

At the shop, we have a 'sale' area, but these are not online and are 'end of line' things that have been lurking about for a bit !

These include the 'alabaster' collection, which we will be discontinuing and some residual stock of 'Contemporary Bronzes' which we used to sell in our days at the House & Garden Fair before we moved into a shop. Also some miscellaneous bits and bobs.

UNTIL WHEN?

Saturday 13th February

How do I go about it?

Just go through our website, make your choice, then either come to the shop, email or phone us and we'll work out what we can do for you.

We always enjoy direct contact with you either in person, by phone or via email, so we are looking forward to it!

This year has, without doubt, been dominated by 'building work' at It's All Greek.....this is a view of a London bus from our basement in May!

What a nightmare it has been, but at least there are no longer floods from the pavement above and the basement is much lighter.

We are aiming to open downstairs again in Spring 2010 to mark our 10th Anniversary year!

'Grecian Elegance' at the Hellenic Centre in September.

The elegance was supplied by Basil Kapnias (right) .... the private view of his exhibition was the focal point of the evening...

... we were pleased to be asked to supply a bronze helmet and a Cycladic figurine as a centrepiece for the canape table.

We were also pleased to supply AVEDA Covent Garden with some of our Athena Dress Jewellery for a fundraising event at their flagship salon in back in June.

EASTER GREETINGS FROM IT'S ALL GREEK!

With our best wishes,
Elinor and Philippa

(Advance warning! Urgent repairs to our basement and outside pavement will be taking place from mid-May,
which will mean massive upheaval and some clearing of stock, but we'll let you know more about that nearer the time.
Upstairs will continue to function as 'normal'!)

BYZANTIUM

Now that this splendid exhibition is over,
we are able to tell you that we supplied
the Royal Academy shop with our
signature 'torque set' for the duration
of the exhibition.

Thank you, Kate &
Welcome, Philippa!

Kate, after over two years at It's All Greek, left in December to set up her own business. My continuing thanks to her for her hard work and commitment to the business in all its aspects.

Philippa started here in mid January.
Many of you will already have met, spoken
to or been in email contact with her.
She graduated in Classical Civilisation from King's College London last summer and has already made a big impression here!

THANK YOU

to the Daily DAILY TELEGRAPH

for featuring three of our products in their 'Valentine's Day' top 50 gift ideas and the same for Mother's Day.

These items are in our 'gifts' section.

Finally, we have the horse of Selene!

More good news

Our large bas-relief panels for walls
will be back in stock from the end of April!
Apologies for the ten months of their
non-availability. We now have another,
excellent supplier and these pieces will
be exclusive to us.

Other bits and bobs in March.....

The Victoria and Albert Museum hired a bust from us for the launch of their current exhibition 'Hats: an anthology by Stephen Jones'
