About Portothelo

shells in purse

I started making purses under the name Shoshothelo in Greece over 10 years ago. The name originated from my cat Shosho and thelo which is Greek for 'I want'. The new name Portothelo has lost the cat naming as I have three cats now and it would be unfair to choose one over the others. The 'porto' part comes from 'portofoli' which means wallet or purse in Greek. The theme of my little shop is the same, hand made purses, zip purses for all sorts of needs. The logo of Portothelo includes elements of the mountainous landscape of Greece and the sea. I hope you find what you are looking for and feel free to message me with any questions you may have, including about customisation, at eleana@portothelo.com
