ANAKAO Anakao was born out of a 50-year tradition of jewellery making. Founder Vinay Soudakar grew up surrounded by jewels in his native Madagascar, where he learnt the trade in his Grandfather’s family business.

In 2006, Vinay went into partnership with his brother in Madagascar and together they ran a successful jewellery store. His creations were received with great enthusiasm from customers who encouraged Vinay to set up his own jewellery brand, and it was this continued support that led to the launch of Anakao in 2015.

Anakao is named after a small fishing village in the south of Madagascar, which remains virtually untouched by modernity, with its white beaches, turquoise ocean and breathtaking sunsets. www.anakao-jewellery.com +44(0)2030112463 sales@anakao-jewellery.com
