The Best Jewelry Brands for Every Kind of Guy

Sure, your outfit might feel complete—but until you have the best men’s jewelry brands in your rotation, are you really dressed? Chains, rings, and bracelets have the power to bring a look together, making your T-shirts and jeans look a little more lived-in—and even trendier. (Plus, even affordable jewelry can be a flex, as you’ll see below.)

While there aren’t quite as many jewelry brands targeted at men as there are for women, you can still find just about anything out there. In the market for a simple silver ring or stud earrings? No-fuss brands like Mejuri, Jaxxon, and Quince can hook you up on the cheap. Hoping for something with a little more personality? We’re big fans of the off-kilter (but still handsome) jewelry from Alighieri and John Hardy. And if you’re looking for a standout gift for men (boyfriends, husbands, dads, you name it) you’ve come to the right place.

The best men’s jewelry brands, at a glance

At this point, Mejuri has reached icon status. The internet-famous brand is known for its fair pricing and sleek, minimalist designs. On the surprisingly robust men’s side, there’s a healthy mix of chains, bracelets, rings, and charms in materials like stainless steel and 14-karat gold.

Founded in 1980, David Yurman has become a favorite jeweler among celebrities—and anyone else with a penchant for accessible, everyday jewelry with an artistic edge. This is a great option for eye-catching rings, bracelets, and dog-tag necklaces; the materials and detail back up the price point, which stretches from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars.

Miansai was founded nearly 20 years ago as a men’s jewelry brand, and while it’s since expanded into women’s products, the men’s side remains our favorite. Blending minimalism with statement-making design, the Miami-based company excels at pieces that’ll fit into your existing collection, like cuffs, gemstone-encrusted signet rings, and low-key beaded bracelets.

Quince isn’t technically a jewelry brand; it produces tons of luxury-level goods, like luggage, cashmere sweaters, and wallets, then sells them at prices way below the competition. But its jewelry is worth a special mention; each piece, from the solid-gold rings to the understated earrings, feels and looks high-quality. We like this brand for the basics you don’t want to spend a ton on, like chain bracelets and hoop earrings. (It’s also a great place to find low-key engagement rings.)

Forged from 100% reclaimed gold and silver, John Hardy’s unique pieces have been made in Bali since 1975. The brand’s calling card is basics with a twist: silver rings with chainlike forms, chains that look like nothing else on the market, forms studded with semiprecious stones like lapis lazuli and turquoise. It skews on the more expensive side, but the craftsmanship and one-of-a-kind design ethos are worth the investment.

While the brand no longer produces only 50 of each item—the impetus for its name—UNOde50 still produces limited runs of its genderless designs, meaning you’ll always find new pieces of jewelry (and you need to snap up the ones you like most). Everything leans organic and has the look of something truly handmade; these more masculine pieces will take your budding jewelry collection to new, bolder heights.

Jaxxon, a jewelry brand tailored specifically to men, specializes in high-quality chains: Cuban link, Figaro, and rope. Whether you prefer 14-karat gold, sterling silver, or something fully iced out, there’s something for you (with customizable sizing too). Also up for grabs are studs, hoops, signet rings, and pendants, all of which look great paired with dress shirts, tees, and sweaters.

Does Gucci need any introduction? While the luxury house’s fashion and fine jewelry focuses mostly on women, you’ll find gems like eye-catching rings and logo-studded bracelets in the men’s section. (The watches and sunglasses are just as great, of course.)

Based in the United Kingdom and inspired by Dante Alighieri—yes, of Dante’s Inferno—this free-spirited jewelry brand finds beauty in imperfection. Each piece is handcrafted, with organic, expressionist forms on each pendant, ring, and bracelet. It’s especially well suited for warmer weather; imagine how great each of these would look next to an undone linen shirt while on vacation.

We don’t need to introduce Pandora’s women’s jewelry—but did you know the men’s side is pretty great, too? The brand’s basic chains make the perfect barely-there necklaces and bracelets for guys. Meanwhile, if you’re unafraid to explore the charms side of things, collaborations with the likes of Marvel mean you can wear your favorite pieces of culture on your chest.

Hermès, the master of leather, is just about the best place to pick up woven men’s bracelets that are just as classic as they are versatile. (Just peep the equestrian option below, which comes in the house’s signature orange shade.) Equestrian references pepper the rest of the label’s offerings, including a bold men’s ring featuring stirrups that’ll instantly class up jeans or a suit.

Although it’s a young brand—it was founded in 2019—British label Hatton Labs has a distinct identity that combines London’s legacy of fine jewelry with the aesthetics of streetwear. It’s your best bet for icy pieces with an actual point of view (at a price point that won’t leave you instantly regretting your purchase). Start with a mariner chain and spider earrings your favorite rockstar would have worn in the ’90s.

Norwegian brand Tom Wood launched in 2013 with a refreshing take on signet rings, and it’s since expanded into a wide range of unisex pieces: Yellow-gold-plated huggies, sterling silver rings, and rhodium-plated chains are among the company’s best pieces. It’s not exactly cheap, but everything is made to last.

Thanks to clever branding and timeless design, Le Gramme’s minimalist wares also double as statement pieces. Each one is named based on its weight in grams, and you can choose from cable bracelets, wedding rings, earrings, and plenty more. Everything is produced with a slick, industrial economy—no wonder it’s a favorite brand among the creative class.

This accessories brand is best known for its watches, but it also makes some of our favorite men’s jewelry on the side. A ring watch makes a cheeky (yet functional) addition to your lineup of everyday pieces, while a leather-and-stone bracelet feels almost mystic. You can’t go wrong.

Since 1977, American brand Lagos has been crafting fine jewelry that’s just a little off-kilter; the brand’s signature caviar motif appears across its entire range. Start with a mixed-tone charm or a simple chain bracelet—then graduate to Apple Watch bands and bold rings when you’re really ready to invest.

As seen on celebrities like Sabrina Carpenter and SZA, Bony Levy crafts gold and diamond jewelry exclusively for Nordstrom. Everything leans classic but fits nicely within a contemporary wardrobe, adding a subtle touch of luxury to any look. The diamond studs and gold chain necklaces look and feel expensive—worthy investments, if you ask us.

Founded and handcrafted in Greece, Konstantino is imbued with the aesthetics of its home country. Each piece features textured, engraved metal—perfect for the guys who like to stand out. Mixed metals, ancient motifs, and eye-catching finishes abound, making this pretty much the polar opposite of the minimalist brands on the market.

New York–based brand Caputo & Co. also makes necklaces, rings, and belts, but its bracelets are where it’s at. Everything leans understated but doesn’t fade into the background. Whether you go with a leather option outfitted with metal hardware or a beaded pick that’s right on trend for 2024, everything’s masculine and ready to add some personality to your outfit.
