In the world of modern jewellery design, Annabel B is a name synonymous with creativity, craftsmanship, and compassion. With over three decades of experience, Annabel’s journey is one deeply rooted in the transformative power of jewellery. Her work is often referred to as “wearable art,” reflecting her drive to reimagine traditional pieces and experiment with unconventional forms. From silver bangles that arc above the elbow to agate-studded rings that rest atop the knuckle, her designs challenge traditional boundaries and encourage wearers to embrace the unexpected.
Each piece from Annabel B is meticulously crafted in her workshop on South Molton Street, Mayfair. She selects materials that include sterling silver, gold vermeil, rose gold, and black rhodium-plated accents, incorporating gemstones like zebra agate and onyx to bring each piece to life. Her emphasis on distinct, tactile designs ensures that every ring, bangle, or chain feels timeless yet refreshingly modern. There’s a sense that each piece is meant to become a part of the wearer’s identity, to be worn not only on the body but in the spirit.
Beyond the workbench, Annabel dedicates herself to philanthropy, translating her passion for art into action. As an ambassador, fundraiser, and volunteer for Great Ormond Street Hospital, she channels all proceeds from her limited-edition pieces to charities, including Spread A Smile and Lymphoma Action, an organisation that provides vital information and support to those living with this type of blood cancer. Her mission is simple yet profound: to create beauty that reaches beyond aesthetics, offering support and hope to those who need it most.
