Olive Oil
Olive oil has a history spanning thousands of years in Mediterranean countries. In the West, it is hailed as "liquid gold," the "queen of vegetable oils," and "Mediterranean nectar" due to its excellent natural health benefits, cosmetic properties, and ideal culinary uses.
Edible high-grade olive oil is a natural fruit juice extracted from fresh, semi-ripe or ripe olives through physical cold-pressing processes, making it the only woody plant oil in the world consumed in its natural state.
OXETTE
Greece is also home to the fashion brand OXETTE.
It has always been known in the fashion world as the "Greek Goddess." Most of its jewelry is designed with 925 sterling silver as a base, accented with natural gemstones from South Africa. As an international brand, its design team includes renowned designers from France, Italy, and other countries, resulting in innovative designs and stylish shapes, with a very fast pace of new product launches every year.
