The Museum is housed in a beautiful, totally renovated early 20th century building located on a side-street adjacent to Dionysiou Areopagitou, very near the Acropolis. The museum's permanent collection comprises over 3000 designs in jewelry and objects d'art created throughout the 50-year-long carrier of the museum's founder, renowned Greek jeweler Ilias Lalaounis. Through the 45 collections of the museum, visitors are provided a clear picture of the ancient art of jewelry from prehistoric times to present day, and get a glimpse of the different civilisations where the art of jewelry flourished.
