Skyros, in the North Aegean sea, is the largest of the Sporades islands and the only one famous of its own unique embroidery style. Skyros embroideries (skyriana in Greek) are characterized by the use of naturalistic elements such as musicians, horsemen with raised swords, birds and ships, all drawn freehand and embroidered with very colorful floss silk.

This contemporary design is a resemblance of a skyriano embroidery depicting a ship. The ship was symbolizing Life and the passage of Time.

The mermaids is a classic feature that can be found on Greek island embroidery and Greek folk art.
