About the Brand

SISTER

Sister is a platform for curated, handcrafted products lovingly made under the Mediterranean sun. Born in Cyprus, Aphrodite’s birthplace, Sister curates and designs products from the island, supporting the local craftsmanship and breathing life back into century-old, artisan trades.Sister was created by Antonia, a Cypriot, now living in Berlin. At the start of 2018 her lifelong desire to create a brand that supports the island’s local craftsmanship became a ‘now or never’ project. Having been abroad for over 12 years, she felt the need to creatively reconnect with her birthplace and to rekindle her fascination for Cypriot heritage, the traditions that make it so unique and the enchanting stories that are passed on through the generations, under lemon trees.
