Three generations of tradition, a new digital journey — The official website of Avgerinos Tannery is now live.

With great pleasure, Vassilis Avgerinos Tannery announces the official launch of its new website. Authentic Parchment now has its own digital home, bringing three thousand years of history directly to your screen.

A Digital Bridge of History and Prestige — From Pergamon to Harmaina and into the Digital Age!

Our new website is a tribute to our family heritage and the legacy of Harmaina in Amfissa, where for the third generation we continue the ancient craft of tanning.

On the new platform, visitors can explore:

  • The Uniqueness of the Material: Detailed insights into why Authentic Parchment is the most secure and impossible-to-forge writing medium, thanks to its natural watermark and authenticity certification.
  • Our Major Works: Discover the high-prestige creations produced on our parchment, such as the Tome of Autocephaly of the Ukrainian Church and the Patriarchal and Synodal Act of Canonization, among others.
  • The History of Harmaina: Explore the tanners’ district and its enduring legends.

We Invite You to Explore!

We welcome you to explore our new website and discover the true value and craftsmanship behind every piece of Authentic Parchment we create.
