About the brand
AKKESOIR creates distinctive jewelry from exclusive materials sourced from select manufacturing warehouses and archives. Chains are at the heart of AKKESOIR's collections, reworked into unique, evolving designs. Using modern techniques, these materials are reimagined into contemporary designs that fuse the enduring charm of the past with a fresh, creative edge. Akke, the brand's visionary, is committed to regenerating materials, reflecting a focus on conscious creation.
AKKESOIR thrives on innovation without following traditional fashion seasons, offering pieces plated with premium finishing techniques.
Custom-made designs tailored to individual preferences are available by appointment in the Berlin studio.
Founded in 2008 by Akke Visschers, the brand has gained attention from clients, retailers, and celebrities like Katy Perry and Lauryn Hill.
About me
I grew up in an eco-conscious, sports-driven household with my immediate family. It was my artistic relatives -my cousin and aunts- and my love for glam and rock 'n' roll that ignited my creative spark.
Trading the world of athletics for fashion, I studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Maastricht. After gaining hands-on experience through an internship and working with a Dutch accessories label in Amsterdam and Bali, I launched my first collection in Amsterdam. Berlin's electrifying creative scene drew me in, and I’ve called it home since 2006.
In 2008, I introduced AKKESOIR, creating distinctive accessories, such as bags and jewelry. After a pause to focus on other creative projects, I revived AKKESOIR jewelry in 2022, driven by the unique magic it continues to bring.
