At the early age of 30 she found Anna Hu Haute Joaillerie, when she is famed for being the first Asian jeweller to be featured in a solo exhibition at the Louvre's Musée des Arts Decoratifs. Her nature-inspired creations are one of the most iconic jewellery designs of the era. The Butterfly Collection, being Hu's favourite natural creature, is inspired by and celebrates important female figures across times and cultures, including Greek Goddess of Athena and Queen Victoria.
