About the guest

With a background in teaching and a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship, Anna creates sculptural, ethical jewellery rooted in sustainability, storytelling, and the visible mark of the maker’s hand. Often described as mini wearable sculptures, her pieces incorporate heirloom materials and are crafted using low-impact, hand-powered techniques. As a certified B Corp, she is committed to transparency, ethical sourcing, and making jewellery that is as responsible as it is beautiful.
