Greek television presenter Faye Skorda and architect Alexandros Athanasiadis have made a joint public appearance in Athens at an anniversary gala marking 100 years of the historic Greek jewellery house Vourakis.
The couple attended the celebratory evening held at the Old Stock Exchange of Athens. The event honored a century of continuous presence for the luxury firm in Greek jewellery making since its founding in 1926.
During the event, Skorda spoke on camera to reporter Alexandros Routas for the morning television show Happy Day. Asked about her personal life, the presenter offered a new update regarding her upcoming marriage to Athanasiadis, stating that good wishes were welcome and revealing that the wedding would take place sooner rather than during the summer.
Skorda is one of the most recognizable personalities on Greek television, having hosted major national morning programs for over two decades. Athanasiadis works as an architect in Greece, and the pair have largely maintained a low public profile regarding their relationship.
Centenary celebration at the Old Stock Exchange
The centenary evening brought together prominent figures from business, politics, shipping, academia, and culture, alongside members of the former Greek Royal Family and families with long-standing ties to the jewellery house.
International attendees included representatives from the Italian luxury jewellery brand Vhernier, while journalist and news anchor Sia Kosioni served as the presenter for the evening's proceedings.
Addressing the guests, Antonis Vourakis spoke about the company's hundred-year milestone and his stewardship of the family business. He said he felt blessed to be leading the house during such a significant 100th anniversary celebration.
Founded in 1926, the house of Vourakis has established itself as a cornerstone of high jewellery design in Greece, known for creating bespoke pieces for European royalty and prominent international clients. The venue for the anniversary, the Old Stock Exchange of Athens, is a landmark neoclassical building in the heart of the capital that housed the country's main financial market for more than a century.
