Jewelry
By Pariah Jewelry
By Pariah was founded in London in 2016 by Sophie Karg, after a career in luxury fashion communications and a longstanding interest in materials. Karg named the brand after a National Geographic story about remote parts of the Caribbean and began with raw stones, recycled metals and sculptural forms. The jewelry feels considered but not over-polished, as if the material is allowed to keep its weather.
Vivienne Westwood Earrings Put The Orb Front And Centre
Vivienne Westwood earrings put the brand's orb logo, an orb with a ring of Saturn, on almost everything. I look at the orb pieces, from gold-tone enamel to crystal and cubic zirconia.
David Morris Jewellery: London High Jewellery Since 1962
David Morris jewellery has been made in London since 1962, when the founder opened his first workshop in Hatton Garden. I go through the house's rings, earrings, necklaces and cuffs, from Frozen Kiss to Triolette.
David Webb Jewelry: Bold Gold Earrings, Bangles and Chains
David Webb jewelry brings bold American fine-jewelry design to sculptural statement pieces, with playful detail and confident scale.
FoundRae Necklaces: Gold Diamond Pendants With Meaning
Beth Bugdaycay started FoundRae in New York in 2015, after two decades running Rebecca Taylor, and named it partly for her grandmother Rae. Notes on the necklaces, rings and bracelets she calls modern heirlooms, built around symbols in 18-karat gold rather than plain sparkle.
David Yurman Jewelry: The Tribeca Story Behind the Cable
David Yurman started in 1980 as a Tribeca studio project between a sculptor and a painter, and the twisted Cable design they hand made a few years later became the house's whole vocabulary. Notes on how that one motif carries across bracelets, rings, earrings and necklaces, and why one piece usually says more than four.
De Beers London Jewelry
De Beers London brings the diamond house’s long relationship with the stone into a more modern, design-led frame. The wider De Beers story reaches back to 1888, while the jewellery house itself launched in 2001 and now pairs London energy with southern African roots. Here, rings, earrings and necklaces make the case for diamonds that feel considered rather than over-explained.
Garrard Jewelry: Crown Jeweller Since 1735 and Its Heirloom Earrings
Garrard jewelry comes from a London house dating to 1735 that spent more than 160 years as Crown Jeweller, looking after the British Crown Jewels. I go through its platinum, white gold, sapphire and diamond earrings.
Diane Kordas Jewelry: Evil Eye and Nomad Gold Pendants
Diane Kordas fell for the jewelers of Athens during summers in Greece and launched her line in 2000 with the evil eye. Notes on the designer behind these gold pendants and symbols, and why one piece worn often beats a box full of them.
Jennifer Meyer Jewelry: Enamel Roots and Gold Diamond Pieces
Jennifer Meyer learned to make enamel jewelry at six with her grandmother Edith, then started her own line in Los Angeles in 2005. Notes on the jeweler behind these small gold symbols, and how to choose the one you will wear every day.
Dinosaur Designs: Resin Jewelry and Home Objects
Dinosaur Designs turns resin into sculptural jewelry and home objects, letting bold color and rounded, tactile forms carry the whole idea. That material logic sets it apart from the polished metal and neutral ceramics that dominate most collections around it. This edit focuses on the pieces where that idea reads clearest, from earrings that interrupt a plain outfit to vessels built to be seen.
Juju Vera Necklaces: Gold-Plated and Silver Pieces
Juju Vera was founded by Julia Ferentino and launched in 2024 after her work sourcing vintage jewelry for editorials, films and private clients. The line draws on Greco-Roman motifs, 1970s Art Deco architecture and retro cinema, with pieces hand-cast from her sketches in a New York workshop. This small edit has the feeling of a prop department with very good taste.
Ileana Makri Jewelry
Ileana Makri launched her eponymous jewelry line in 1998 after studying design at the Gemological Institute of America and returning to the gemstone language she had loved since childhood. Her Athens-based work is made with local artisans and balances fine materials with a sense of movement, from cord and beads to diamonds, enamel and colored stones. The collection reads like modern talismans rather than a parade of formal jewelry.
Irene Neuwirth Necklaces: Aquamarine, Emerald and Opal
Irene Neuwirth necklaces start with the stone, using aquamarine, emerald and opal in 18-karat gold settings. I cover the Los Angeles brand she launched with Tracy Stoll in 2003 and the gems I would wear first.
Kamyen Jewelry: Three Generations of Diamantaires
Kamyen comes from three generations of diamantaires, with creative director Kumud Hirawat rooted in a family of gemstone merchants from Jaipur. The family business now works from Mumbai and draws on that stones-first knowledge for high jewelry and prêt-à-porter pieces. In this selection, enamel, colored gems and diamonds keep the mood bright rather than purely formal.
L’Atelier Nawbar
L’Atelier Nawbar was founded in Beirut in 1891 and remains a fourth-generation Lebanese jewelry house. Sisters Dima and Tania Nawbar grew up around their father’s workshop and brought a contemporary edge to the family’s gold, diamond and gemstone practice. The collection moves between symbolic pendants, colored stones and small objects for keeping jewelry close.
Laura Lombardi Jewelry: Gold-Plated Necklaces and Earrings
Laura Lombardi launched her eponymous jewelry line in 2010 after growing up between New York and Tuscany and experimenting with the chain samples her father brought from Italy. She works with recycled brass, deadstock and found materials, letting the substance of the piece guide the design. The result is jewelry with industrial weight and an unusually clear sense of its making.
Nikos Koulis Jewelry: Strict Geometry and Fine Gold Earrings
Nikos Koulis treats fine jewelry as a meeting point between strict geometry and a little mischief. The Athens-based jeweler founded his eponymous brand in 2006 and made enamel, diamonds and graphic forms part of the house vocabulary. These are pieces with enough precision for a close look and enough color to avoid behaving like safe investments.
Ole Lynggaard Earrings: 18-Karat Gold Pieces Shaped by Nature
Ole Lynggaard earrings come in 18-karat gold, from Snakes with turquoise to Boho with quartz and tourmaline. The Copenhagen house began in a small Hellerup workshop in 1963, and I look at how nature shapes each piece.
Paola Sighinolfi Jewelry: Sculptural Rings, Earrings and Cuffs
Paola Sighinolfi makes jewelry that treats color and volume as part of the silhouette, not an afterthought. The Colombian-born, Barcelona-based designer studied gemology and jewelry design, worked with maisons including Piaget, and launched her own brand in 2014. Malachite, carnelian, resin, and sculptural metal give the pieces a distinctly personal charge.
Persée Necklace: Floating Diamonds From Nawal Laoui's House
A Persée necklace makes a diamond look caught in motion, with stones that appear suspended or barely held. I go through the floating necklaces, diamond earrings, rings and bracelets from the Paris house Nawal Laoui founded in 2017.
Piaget Jewelry
Piaget brings watchmaking precision and high jewelry drama into the same conversation. Georges-Édouard Piaget founded the maison in 1874 in the Swiss Jura, and the house later became known for ultra-thin movements alongside gem-set watches and jewelry. The current pieces still make that technical history feel polished rather than nostalgic.
Pomellato Jewelry: Color, Scale and Milanese Swagger
Pomellato treats fine jewelry like a wardrobe, with color, scale, and a little Milanese swagger built into every piece. Founded in Milan by Pino Rabolini in 1967, the house introduced the idea of prêt-à-porter jewelry and made colored stones feel modern rather than ceremonial. The Nudo and Iconica families still carry that direct, tactile point of view.
Lucy Delius Jewelry
Lucy Delius makes fine jewelry that treats the past as a source of attitude rather than a museum display. Launched in 2022 after years in the jewelry industry, the London label draws on Victorian silhouettes, pocket-watch chains and the designer’s family love of collected pieces. Gold, diamonds, rubies, emeralds and pearls give the references enough weight to feel personal from the first wear.
