What do you miss most about Greece? Here's a way to feed your Grecian heart and soul with foods, beverages, and other gifts from Hellas.
Choose from a big selection of wines from Greece. Owe someone a "special" gift? You can claim you brought the bottle home on your lap all the way from Greece - just because you knew they would enjoy it so. Some of my reliable favorites are Boutari wines and the dessert wine Mavrodaphne from Achaia Clauss.
Select from a wide range of Greek "key" or "chi" designs produced by Kalopedis Jewelry in the Republic of Cyprus. Change price listings to reflect your currency; initial prices are in Cyprus Pounds.
The Hellenic Museum Shop is located in New York City, but provides a rich selection of museum gift shop items from Greece. High quality, good prices, and easy to order. My favorite? The turtle coin pendant from Aigina, part of the Benaki Museum collection, in sterling silver for $73 plus shipping.
Expensive to ship from Greece, this U.S. alternative is one way of getting the famed original Greek "shag rug" home on your own floor. Other colors are available.
The Greeks are never "doormats" - but this is one way to decorate your doorway with a personalized doormat with the Greek meander design around the edges.
Go Greek with these "classic" Greek fishermen's hats.
Add to wooden building block sets for that Greek temple look.
Go for Greece all the way with this large, light Greek flag. It's 3' by 5' - big enough to make a big statement.
Serve up your bread in style on this beautiful silver-plated bread plate. But no pita please!
