The Annika Cuff

We believe that your needs should be met in the safest way possible, which is why we’ve created the Annika anxiety bracelet.

For those who seek physical sensations as an outlet for stress and anxiety, we knew it was important to design a piece of jewellery that offers these sensations in a non-damaging and non-harmful way. At first glance, the Annika looks like a standard cuff, but on the inside, we’ve incorporated a textured section positioned directly over the wrist's pressure points. This textured area features an array of small, blunt points that can be pressed into the skin to create an immediate sensation without breaking the surface.

When pressure is released, the textured area leaves a subtle indent, providing the visual input that some people seek along with the physical sensation. The Annika anxiety bracelet is designed to offer this on-demand sensation only when needed, making it safe for everyday wear. The bracelet is completely adjustable and available in three different sizes, ensuring a perfect fit.

This anxiety bracelet is dedicated to another mastermind behind our journey, Annika, or Arno as we call her. Having worked through her own anxiety issues, it only felt fitting to be able to name this piece in our collection after her, in recognition of the energy and passion she has poured into Star & Co.

Crafted from 925 Sterling Silver and 8025 Bronze, the Annika anxiety bracelet is both elegant and functional, offering a stylish and safe way to manage anxiety. The first of it’s kind in Australia!

 

Important note

The Annika cuff is designed as a redirect for those who are already seeking significant sharp and intense sensory input to help relieve anxiety. It is not intended to encourage these behaviours, only to act as an aid for those who are currently struggling. 
Warning: Continued sideways deep pressure may break the skin. This is not the intended use and caution must be exercised when using the Annika cuff in this way. 

Care Instructions

Our jewellery collection contains pieces that are both adjustable and non-adjustable. Due to the nature of our designs, our manufacturing team use a method called electric welding in order to create the moving parts in each piece. This process can create weak points that are not visible to the eye, and which are not intended to be adjusted or bent. If your piece states that it is non-adjustable, please do take our word for it, we’ve tested it already and found out the hard way! If you have any doubt, please just ask us, we're always happy to help you.

In order for our jewellery to be accessible to as many people as possible, we’ve opted to use materials that help keep our price affordable for everyone. These materials are less expensive, but by no means offer any less quality. For example, instead of using gold, we have used high quality bronze to achieve the same finish and colour. Like all reactive metals, the silver and bronze used in our designs can be prone to tarnish, especially when unused for a period of time. To keep your jewellery at its best, our advice is to closely follow the care instructions provided with your jewellery, or they can be found by clicking below.

Individual skin reactions to bronze and silver can vary. Some people are prone to a greenish tinge on their skin from wearing these metals. It is the result of a harmless chemical reaction between the metal and your skin, usually accelerated by heat, moisture and skin products. If this happens to be you, it should disappear after one day without wearing your jewellery, or faster with a bit of makeup remover.

The movement in our jewellery has been created with durability in mind, though care must be taken with the moving parts. Dust, dirt and sand can cause the movement to become restricted, and forceful use or heavy impact can be damaging to the way the designs work. Please bare this in mind when wearing your jewellery in certain environments, such as the beach or in the gym.
