Limited Editions – Intentionally Made
HYLE rejects mass production. We create in small, thoughtful batches, with each piece carrying the unique marks and natural variations of handmade work, authentic signs of soulful craftsmanship. We also welcome custom-made and collaborative creations, growing together with like-minded brands and individuals.
HYLE – A Brand Rooted in Essence
Born from a deep connection with the Aegean island of Skyros, HYLE was created in response to a life of simplicity, authenticity, and natural unity. Living on the island awakened a profound love for the land, the sea, its species, and its traditions, igniting a need to preserve and honor them through artistic expression. HYLE is a continuous exploration of conservation, cultural storytelling, and slow, meaningful living. It is a tribute to nature, heritage, and the sacred rhythm of creation.
Art and Function – In Perfect Balance
Each piece in the collection naturally blends artistic form with everyday function, soulful, timeless ceramics made to be used, admired, and lived with. From cups, bowls, and platters to vases, sculptures, lighting, and wall art, every object is part of a slow, intentional process that honours both beauty and purpose.

Crafted in Collaboration
At HYLE, we don’t just imagine, we create. Through art, play, and hands-on making, we bring each piece to life. The Senses of Skyros collection is shaped by unique collaborations with artists who inspire us. Each piece reflects a story of Skyros and is crafted through different techniques, hand-painting, textures, wheel work, and more. Together, through shared ideas and careful samples, we follow a thoughtful journey from first spark to final creation.
The Senses of Skyros collection
is the heart of HYLE. It was created from a deep need to keep cultural elements alive—stories, places, and species that could easily be overlooked or slowly fade away. Through contemporary art, and especially through the art of clay, we find a way to translate these stories into form and texture. This ongoing collection is our way of preserving and reimagining the living heritage of Skyros—like the endangered Skyrian horse, the wild terrains of Pouria, the ancient carnival, and the textures of the island’s villages and soils. Through clay, these elements take on new life, inviting others to see, feel, and connect with them in the present.
