Welcome to Cocorrina
Makers of Heirloom Curiosities, founded by husband-and-wife team Corina Nika and Theo Dadamis on the Greek island of Kefalonia.
Inspired by the objects we inherit, the stories we preserve, and the beauty of another time.
COCORRINA
Our Story
What began as a small creative blog in 2012 has evolved into an independent studio creating jewelry, art, books, journals, and collectible objects enjoyed by customers around the world.
Our Founders
Corina, a self-taught designer, artist, and author, and Theo, a former IT professional turned maker and builder, started Cocorrina from their home in Kefalonia with little more than imagination, persistence, and a shared dream of building something together.
Our Craft
From the first sketch to the finished object, every collection is developed with an obsession for detail, materials, and craftsmanship. We believe the smallest details often make the most meaningful objects.
Our Island
Created on the Greek island of Kefalonia, our work is shaped by a landscape of sea, forests, old stone villages, and centuries of history woven into everyday life.
Our Studio
Our collections are brought to life through close collaborations with skilled artisans, combining traditional craftsmanship with carefully chosen materials including paper, brass, sterling silver, gold vermeil, velvet, and wood.
Since 2012
14 Years of Heirloom Curiosities
Cocorrina began in 2012 as a design blog and creative refuge during a difficult chapter in Corina’s life. Following a major surgery that left her bedridden for months, she turned to design, writing, and creating as a way to rebuild, reconnect, and find purpose through creativity.
What started as a personal project soon evolved into a branding and design studio led by Corina, creating work for clients including Elie Saab, Nicole Scherzinger, Zara, Virgin Music, and other international brands.
In 2017, after the birth of their son, Corina and Theo felt drawn toward creating something more tangible and lasting. From their home in Kefalonia, they began designing black and gold foil art prints inspired by antique books, old libraries, and the treasures of another age, creating objects that felt special enough to keep.
Those first prints became the foundation of what Cocorrina is today. Through independent publishing, crowdfunding campaigns, and years of creating directly for their community, the brand gradually expanded into heirloom books, journals, tarot decks, jewelry, brass artwork, and collectible curiosities for kindred spirits around the world.
A note from our Co-Founder
From the beginning, I was drawn to old books, forgotten objects, antique collections, and the feeling of discovering something with a story behind it. The kind of piece you might find tucked away in a library, displayed in a cabinet of curiosities, or passed down through generations.
Over time, that fascination grew into what would eventually become Cocorrina.
Every collection begins with an illustration, a story, a material, or a detail I can’t stop thinking about. Together with Theo, we transform those ideas into small-batch heirloom objects designed to be collected, cherished, and kept for years.
A small detail many people don’t know is that the crescent moon in our logo reflects the phase of the moon on the night Theo and I met. The four stars surrounding it represent our family: the two of us and our two children. Over the years, the symbol has become a quiet reminder of how Cocorrina began and the people at the heart of it.

Co-Founder & Artist
Our Collections
We create jewelry, art, books, and collectible objects that blend original design, historical inspiration, and thoughtful craftsmanship. Whether drawing from antique illustrations, forgotten folklore, Victorian books, or centuries-old decorative arts, our goal is not simply to recreate the past, but to reimagine it for a new generation of collectors.
Our Jewelry
Designed by Corina and handcrafted in Kefalonia by local artisan Nikos Isiris using sterling silver and gold vermeil.
Our Books
Produced in Greece using premium materials, specialty bindings, gold foiling, embossing, gilded edges, and custom formats.
Our Brass Art
Hand embossed and repoussé brass mounted on velvet and framed by local artisans in handmade wooden frames.
Cocorrina Jewelry
Jewelry Designed to Be Worn,
Loved, and Kept
For us, jewelry is one of the most intimate forms of storytelling.
Unlike a book placed on a shelf or an artwork hung on a wall, jewelry travels with us. It becomes part of our daily rituals, our memories, and the moments we carry through life.
Crafted in sterling silver and 14k gold vermeil, our collections draw inspiration from antique jewelry, celestial symbolism, folklore, and heirlooms of the past. We design each piece to feel timeless rather than trend-driven, balancing historical influence with contemporary craftsmanship.
Whether worn every day or saved for special occasions, we hope each piece becomes part of its owner's personal story and is cherished for years to come.
Our World
Today, the world of Cocorrina spans jewelry, books, brass artwork, and seasonal collections. While every category is different, they are united by the same love of craftsmanship, storytelling, and thoughtful design.

Book Covers & Publishing
Storytelling has always been
at the heart of Cocorrina.
Corina’s artwork and design work has appeared on books published by bestselling authors and major publishers.
Our Future
We believe the objects we surround ourselves with should inspire us for years, not moments.
We want to create objects that feel meaningful, lasting, and worthy of keeping. Pieces that become part of someone’s personal story. Things that age beautifully, gather memories, and feel just as special years from now as they did on the day they arrived.
