About Spira
Spira, the feminine form of Spiro, has an intriguing etymology rooted in Ancient Greek. The most plausible theory suggests its derivation from the word "spurís," meaning "hamper" or "basket." Notably, Saint Spyridon, a venerated figure in both Eastern and Western Christianity, bore this name. Known as the patron saint of potters and the island of Corfu, Saint Spyridon is revered for his miraculous interventions, including the expulsion of the plague from the island.
