Anni Lu makes beaded jewelry that refuses to take itself seriously: bright glass beads, pearls and gold, built to be stacked by the handful.
Most pieces pair gold-plated brass with an anti-tarnish coating and strands of glass beads, freshwater pearls or gemstones, in colors that lean tropical and sun-washed. Bracelets are light, adjustable and meant to be worn several at a time, so a single one is an easy start and a full stack still looks relaxed rather than fussy.
Nothing from Anni Lu is on the site at the moment. We watch their sales and new collections — when one lands it shows up in Drops.
Helle Vestergaard Poulsen founded Anni Lu in Copenhagen in 2013 and named it for the two people who inspire her most, her daughter, Luella, and her late mother, Anni.
She set out to make jewelry that feels like a beach holiday, delicate, colorful and never too precious, and the label became known for beaded bracelets and necklaces designed for mixing, layering and making your own.
From reviews and try-on videos, in our words.
Most bracelets adjust over a few centimeters with a lobster clasp, roughly 16 to 21 cm depending on the style, so one size fits most wrists.
Pieces are gold-plated brass or sterling silver with an anti-tarnish coating. Take them off to sleep, swim or work out, and keep pearl styles away from water.
US orders ship from Denmark with duties and taxes included: $25 by PostNord, free over $200, arriving in about 10 to 13 weekdays.
Returns are accepted within 14 days, unworn and in the original packaging. You pay the postage back, and should mark the parcel as returned goods to avoid customs charges.
Every piece is handmade, production follows the SMETA audit program, materials are tested for hazardous metals, and each collection includes some upcycled pieces.
