Gaidouraki mou
My little donkey it means
He loves apero
At Anthologist, the donkey is part of our culture, and our founder’s affinity for the beloved island animal runs deep to her childhood. On her first trip to Greece in 1984, she fell in love with donkeys, and on an overnight layover in Frankfurt, her mother bought her a Steiff stuffed animal donkey, which she aptly named “Guy” – short for gaidouri, which is Greek for donkey.
The Anthologist Donkey Marble Cheese Platter combines old world craftsmanship with everyday function. Use it for cheese, olives, crackers or whatever you wish. He’s always a conversation starter.
