Annina Vogel at Kabiri

Annina Vogel was born in London, she spent most of her early childhood in San Francisco and then returned to England at the age of 12. Her mother, Georgina Vogel, was an antique dealer specializing in 1930s Bakelite and costume jewellery, and an immense source of inspiration to her. She taught her daughter the importance of having a 'good eye' and trusting ones instinct. Annina started collecting vintage gold charms at the age of 8, being somewhat of a magpie she was always more attracted to gold and glitter than to bakelite and by 11 she had bought and sold her first diamond ring. Annina is very passionate about rescuing and reviving antique gold jewellery, with the cost of gold being so high much of it is being scrapped and she thinks this is criminal. She personally sources each and every piece before deciding what it will emerge as and can be found most Saturday mornings trawling London’s Portobello market for the rare and unusual.

Each item of jewellery by Annina Vogel is one-of-kind.
