What does Telos mean, exactly?

And the History behind Telos Art

We get this question a lot. And it’s an important one! The very essence of our name, "Telos," is deeply rooted in the Greek word τέλος, signifying ultimate purpose and highest end. 

This ancient philosophical concept reminds us that all of creation was formed to honor and take part in Truth, Goodness, and Beauty, ultimately giving glory to its Creator and striving to be with Him in Heaven. We are all called to live for our telos.

Our family-owned boutique combines the beauty of Catholic jewelry with a passion for inspired design. We believe that beauty is not an end in itself but a means to help you live for your telos, your ultimate purpose. 

Years ago, we fell in love with Catholic jewelry because we firmly believe that everyone deserves beauty in their lives, a tangible reminder of true and meaningful beauty.

“These are the only three things that we never get bored with, and never will, for all eternity, because they are attributes of God, and therefore of all God’s creation: three transcendental or absolutely universal properties of all reality.”

— Peter Kreeft
