Meet The Maker
Hi, I'm Anna - the maker behind Trouvai.
I'm a goldsmith, jewellery designer, treasure hunter and collector of old things. Most days you'll find me at my bench, sketching new designs, melting metal, reworking antique pieces, or searching for forgotten pieces waiting for a second life.
Trouvai began from a love of discovery. I've always been drawn to objects with history, character and signs of a life already lived. The slightly worn treasures, the unusual finds, the pieces that have travelled through time and still have stories left to tell.
The name Trouvai comes from the French word trouvaille — a fortunate find or hidden treasure. That idea sits at the heart of everything I create.
Alongside my own handmade collections, I carefully source antique and vintage jewellery and components, restoring and reimagining them into pieces that feel both timeless and wearable. Some designs are crafted entirely by hand from recycled precious metals, while others begin their journey decades before arriving at my workbench.
Sustainability, craftsmanship and longevity are at the core of Trouvai. I believe jewellery should be made to last, treasured for years to come, and eventually become part of someone else's story too.
Whether you've discovered an antique treasure, fallen in love with a handmade design, or are dreaming of a bespoke piece that's uniquely yours, I'd be honoured to create something meaningful for you.
Thank you for being here and supporting independent craftsmanship. I hope you find something that feels like it was waiting to be discovered by you.
Anna
