Today, Helena proudly produces a large collection of stylish products in a 14,000 m² enclosed area. The brand also fulfills custom orders and produces special projects for individual clients.

What is wooden mosaic and inlaid mother of pearl?

The art of wooden mosaic involves combining different types of wood; from walnut, beech, lemon, olive, rose, mahogany, and other trees. Cutting these pieces into linear pieces creates geometric heads of each piece. In an artistic order, the brand combines these pieces to create one thick beautiful head. The thick piece of wood is cut horizontally into round slices. These slices are inlaid onto the product, giving it a unique appearance. Additionally, inlays of mother of pearl, silver, and brass strings embellish these items. Mother of pearl is hand-cut and matched piece by piece and elegantly inlaid onto the items. This allows one to see and feel the shine and depth of the mother of pearl. HELENA WOOD ART products stand out with the combination of natural walnut wood and traditional oriental decor. All these handcrafted items are designed to enhance and showcase Helena's products to the world.
