Annie Haak Designs

Annie Haak Designs sells sterling-silver and 14 kt gold-filled jewellery organised into bracelets, necklaces, rings and earrings, with most pieces £29-£129 and a small demi-fine tier rising to £299. The range is built around stackable stretch bracelets, charm pendants and interchangeable sliders sold singly or in ready-made sets. Trade is 90 % direct-to-consumer through the UK website, complemented by a showroom in Selsey, West Sussex, and about 40 selected UK independent gift shops. USP is colour-thread “chakra” stretch bracelets that slip on without clasps and are guaranteed waterproof and perfume-proof; the brand owns the registered tagline “Stack Your Story”. Signature collections—Siena, Capri, Laguna—use Italian-milled threads, recycled silver and hand-set zirconias. Limited-edition drops every 4-6 weeks and a lifetime re-threading service keep repeat-purchase rates high. Core customer is 30-55 female, time-poor but sentiment-rich: mums, teachers, NHS staff and holidaymakers who want affordable, low-maintenance pieces that mark children’s initials, birthstones or milestone mantras. Instagram lives and private Facebook groups foster a community that values wellness symbolism over precious-carat luxury. Annie Haak sits between fashion-jewellery chains and entry-level fine jewellers, undercutting the latter by 50-70 % while offering finer materials than high-street costume brands. It differentiates through British coastal heritage storytelling, small-batch production and a post-purchase care programme—re-threading, re-plating and charm swaps—that keeps stacks in wear for years rather than seasons.
