Our Minoan Heritage Gift Box contains:

✻ Extra Virgin Olive Oil (250ml / 8.45oz)

Extra virgin olive oil produced from Koroneiki variety olives grown on Crete. The cold-pressing procedure of the hand-picked olives produces a fruity, mellow oil with very low acidity. Ideal for salads and healthy mediterranean diet recipes.

✻Natural Olive Soap

Natural Olive Soap made by olive oil prevents skin dryness and restores the water balance giving freshness and wellness. Ancient Grecians used olive oil in its purest form to fight the early signs of aging as it contains antioxidants that allow it to work as a natural protector, moisturizer and cleanser. Olive oil stimulates and rejuvenates the skin, offering softness and shine. Hand and face soap for everyday use. Suitable for sensitive skin.

✻Handmade Ceramic Pot with Minoan Motifs

In the minoan era olive oil and honey were kept for long periods of time in gigantic ceramic vessels called pithoi. In those giant jars, olive oil was also transported for trade. Pithoi were painted with colourful sea and shore, flora and fauna images in blacks, reds, whites and blues.  Following the techniques and the tradition of their ancestors, modern people of Greece, especially in the villages, still express their creativity by making objects of excellent quality.

✻Greek lucky eye bracelet

In Greece there is a belief that Matiasma will cause misfortune or injury. Matiasma means “evil eye” in Greek, and is often shortened to mati which means “eye”. The classic Greek “lucky eye” symbol charm aims to ward off the effects of the Matiasma. Blue charms shaped like eyes worn on a necklace or a bracelet “reflect” the evil. The lucky eye is the most commonly talked about ancient tradition in the Greek Isles. Celebrate Greek culture with a Greek lucky eye bracelet in the blue and white colours of the Greek flag.

The Minoan Heritage Gift Box arrives in our signature Chic Greek Gifts box, ready to gift right out of the mail.

A handwritten gift message card is available too. Please add a note during your checkout with the message for your gift card.
