Solid Gold Studs
What you may not know is that Monica Vinader also makes some stellar cartilage earrings. Crafted from solid gold, and priced at 50% off today, these are the chicest, most dazzling pieces you'll find for your upper ear piercings.
Lab-Grown Diamonds
Monica Vinader moves further into the luxury category with the launch of its lab-grown diamond line. These precious stones are chemically identical to mined diamonds, but don't come with the sourcing and traceability issues (or the prohibitive price tags). From simple, sparkling studs to spectacular showpieces, there's something for every taste and budget here.

Celebrity Favourites
We've got our eye on Kendall Jenner's favourite Alta Chain Bracelet and Selena Gomez's sculptural gold hoops – they're clever investments that'll work year-round, whatever the outfit or whims of the trend cycle. But if you prefer to make more of a statement, buy Gigi Hadid's baroque Heirloom Earrings from the Doina collection, which will complete a whole host of Christmas party looks (imagine them with a snuggly grey cashmere jumper too). Or, make like Hailey Bieber and layer delicate Deia Gemstone Pendants with MV's chunky 18kt gold-vermeil Groove Chain.
The Kate Young Collection
If you're looking to invest in some jewels for upcoming Christmas celebrations, Black Friday is the perfect time to save on unique statement styles. Add a touch of vintage glamour with a chunky Tiger's Eye Bangle or Signet Ring from the brand's ongoing collaboration with stylist Kate Young.
Gifts Under £100
Despite being a luxury brand, you don't have to spend a fortune to pick up some of Monica Vinader's best-selling pieces. The brand has a whole collection of items under £100 and with an extra 30% off for Black Friday these jewels are even more reasonable. The best port of call? The brand's beautiful collection designed in collaboration with Mother of Pearl designer and sustainability leader, Amy Powney.

When is Black Friday 2024?
Black Friday falls on the last Friday of November every year and for this year it takes place on November 29.
Does Monica Vinader take part in Black Friday?
For the past few years, Monica Vinader has offered its customers a generous Black Friday discount, and 2024 is absolutely no different: in fact, the sale has already begun.
What is Black Friday?
Black Friday was originally an American holiday, thought to be kick-started by department store Macy’s in the 1930s. The annual event didn't get its name until later on, when it grew in popularity during the 1980s.
It wasn't until decades later, in 2010, that the UK started cashing in on the shopping event. First up, Amazon: the e-tailer began offering customers online discounts and deals on the same day as the sales in the US. Fast forward to 2024 and Black Friday is basically bigger than Boxing Day sales, with most high street and even some luxury stores taking part.
How much is Monica Vinader’s delivery on Black Friday?
Shopping online is the fuss-free way to do Black Friday, but shipping fees are an added cost to consider. Luckily for us, Monica Vinader offers a completely free delivery option –although it can take up to 7 days. If you want your order a little faster, go for the standard delivery priced at £3.95. Or if you’re feeling hella impatient, opt for the next day delivery option (for £7.95) to secure your jewels ASAP.
