the Artiko Story
Dear reader, welcome to our e-shop! We are the Artiko team, and we are excited to share the unexpected journey that brought our bags to life.
Artiko is short for Artemis Oikonomou, the founder and designer behind this bag universe. It all started as a hobby for an architect with a playful heart and an eccentric love for fashion, fueled by persistence and patience. Artemis has always been passionate about design, constantly experimenting with patterns and colors. One day, she decided to try her hand at making a bag. Little did she know, this would be the start of something amazing! In 2018, the first Artiko collection debuted the world, ready to make its mark, whether big or small (that’s up to you to decide)!
Our brand is built on a foundation of respect, integrity, and quality. We prioritize our customers by ensuring exceptional service and valuing their feedback. Designed in Athens, Greece, and manufactured by local craftsmen (or sometimes still by Artemis, who loves making bags), our bags embody both style and quality. We believe in ethical practices throughout our production process, from responsibly sourcing materials to ensuring fair labor practices. Every bag we create not only reflects our passion for design but also our dedication to making a positive impact on our hometown community and the world.
What sets our bags apart is our bold use of color and pattern combinations. We don’t shy away from making a statement, and we believe that accessories should be as lively and unique as the people who carry them. Whether you need a bag for a night out or a day at the office, we have something that will add a splash of fun to your outfit.
Thank you for stopping by and supporting our colorful dream. We hope our bags bring as much joy and excitement to your life as they do to ours. Let’s make the world a little more vibrant, one bag at a time!
Welcome & enjoy!
