ABOUT

Anelia Kuprina is an award-winning independent London jewellery designer, who combines traditional hand-making techniques with modern technologies to create exquisite jewels.

In the ten years that she has spent in the industry, she has worked for leading UK jewellery companies, West End ateliers and the time-honoured workshops of Hatton Garden. This has given her the opportunity to immerse herself in the rarefied world of high-end jewellery manufacturing. This practical training has also endowed her with the skills necessary to be able to expertly manipulate precious metals and infuse meticulous precision into her work.

In 2019 Anelia launched her own studio with the aim of utilising her new-found artistic freedom to create innovative and highly covetable fine jewellery. Her pieces are lauded for their sumptuous quality and their timeless and striking elegance. They’re an ode to love in its purest forms that will last for generations to come. Anelia’s personal philosophy has always been to create strikingly elegant jewellery that eschews fashion whilst focusing on style. She is committed to making versatile, wearable pieces that speak to women and the way that they live their lives today. Her signature is bold, innovative and exciting. Anelia’s design utilises her innate understanding of form and texture with a potent blend of hypnotic colour to create luxurious sculptural masterpieces in miniature form.

Anelia offers bespoke commissions and one-off pieces to commemorate special life events and anniversaries alongside her eponymous limited edition jewellery collections. She works closely with her clients - from sketches to the finished jewels - to bring their visions to life whilst creating a deeper meaning beyond the aesthetic.

All of her work is made with love.
