About An
An's jewellery is inspiring in its ability to seek beauty in the overlooked, challenging the notion of preciousness. She likes to combine materials we know as precious with everyday materials like vinyl, wood and rubber. Her belief is that every material or object can be inspiring, it is a matter of how you look at them and what you make of it.
Her collections include turning vinyl records, lollipop sticks, seeds of the rainforest etc into stunning pieces you would want to wear. It's necessary to look a little closer as things may not be as they seem.
