For centuries, men’s jewellery brands have been confined to two items: a watch and a wedding ring. However, those days are long gone. In recent years, men have started to explore wearing other jewellery including rings, necklaces, bracelets and earrings.
There are myriad different men’s jewellery brands out there and the most important aspect to consider when jewellery shopping, is what you’re buying and what it’ll tell others about you. As with all men’s accessories, jewellery is a reflection of who you are as a person, your lifestyle, tastes, and even income. So, it’s worthwhile looking at various brands, styles, and materials to ensure the jewellery you end up purchasing reflects you in the right way.
Another important aspect to cover is that of quality. Since men’s jewellery is often quite delicate, this is especially important. Not only will better quality items last longer, but they are also better for you as poor quality metals can cause nasty skin conditions if not properly cared for.
Men’s Jewellery Brands FAQs
What jewellery can a man wear?
Men can wear bracelets, cuffs, rings and necklaces or pendants. Be sure to not mix different colours, such as silver and rose gold, but instead, stick to one metal colour throughout.
What colour jewellery is best for a man?
There's no right or wrong answer to this, as it comes down entirely to personal preference. The two most common metal options available to men are sterling silver and gold, and both can look good in either casual or formal environments. Some men's jewellery can be found in rose gold, but this can be a harder colour to pull off. If you get rose gold jewellery, start off with a piece that incorporates it with silver too, before making the jump to a full rose gold piece.
