The 72 Best Jewellery Brands To Know In 2024
From blockbuster brands Mejuri and Missoma to lesser-known names we see big things for, here's your ultimate guide to all that glitters...
There’s a lot of stuff out there, and not all fashion pieces are created equal. Luckily, the ELLE editors know their way around a shopping rail, and when it comes to helping you find those niche brands worth knowing to high-street hits of quality, and a few vintage treasures too, our ELLE Edits showcase the very best of the season.
Whether as a gift to a loved one, or for yourself (a self-gift, if you will), jewellery is unbeaten in its premium status. Often imbued with deep sentiment, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings and so on are true investment pieces that can be passed down through generations due to their long-lasting materials and value.
Indeed, if chosen wisely, the value of a beautifully crafted piece of jewellery can appreciate significantly over time – and who wouldn't want their pension in their jewellery box?

Having said that, not every jewellery purchase you make needs to be an heirloom-worthy investment. A large part of its appeal is the fun involved in mixing, matching and experimenting with new styles, safe in the knowledge that they will always add that glittering finishing touch to even the dullest of outfits.
Luckily, the market for more affordable, trend-led jewellery has blossomed in recent years, ensuring you have access to beautiful and luxurious-looking pieces that will make your ensemble sparkle, no matter your budget or taste.
For timeless 'forever' jewellery in gold, silver and platinum and featuring precious gemstones like diamonds, Tiffany & Co., Boucheron, Bulgari, De Beers and Cartier will never fail you. If you prefer more experimental designs, look to Anissa Kermiche, Mateo, TOHUM and Alighieri. For staples to stack to your heart's content, Mejuri, Monica Vinader, Missoma, Astrid & Miyu and Edge of Ember are names to remember. And for those who put a premium on fun, try Margaux Studios, Wald Berlin, Sandralexandra and Roxanne First.
But that's not all: we have collated many more of our favourite jewellery brands right here – 72, to be exact – for you to take a look through and shop to your heart's content.
The Jewellery Brands To Gift This Christmas
Missoma
A jewellery brand that really needs no introduction, Missoma is the home of accessibly priced, stackable pieces. Seriously though: everyone from Kate Middleton to Kendall Jenner and Selena Gomez has been spotted in its designs. Pieces from the brand's ultra-popular collaborations with Lucy Williams and Harris Reed are veritable must-haves, but the piece we're currently most obsessed with is the consistently selling-out Hera earring, which encapsulates the major two-tone metal trend.
Pandora
If you came of age in the Noughties, chances are you'll already be very well-acquainted with this iconic jewellery brand. But while you may recognise a Pandora bracelet charm by the sound of its jangling, what you may not know is that the Danish favourite is currently in the midst of a super-luxe glow-up.
Think ultra-premium pieces featuring lab-grown diamonds and freshwater pearls, collections with a more minimalist, nature-inspired aesthetic, and a new slew of high-profile fans including Pamela Anderson, Precious Lee and about half the London Fashion Week crowd. Turns out, Pandora offers much more than just teenage nostalgia.
Monica Vinader
Monica Vinader sits perfectly in that affordable luxury bracket, which means each piece feels super special and expensive, without being so precious that you never want to wear it. In short: it's the epitome of wearable luxury, and perfect for gifting.
Everything is made from recycled metals, and most recently, the brand collaborated with Mother of Pearl founder Amy Powney to create a sustainably driven collection inspired by nature.
Mejuri
Mejuri counts the Duchess of Cambridge, Selena Gomez, Bella Hadid and Billie Eilish as fans – which tells you everything you need to know about how versatile its pieces are. The 'everyday' fine jewellery brand champions sustainability; always working with traceable or recycled silver and gold, as well as sustainably-sourced diamonds. ELLE's favourites? The cult Croissant Dôme hoops and the Wishbone stacking rings.
Hey Harper
For those who love gold jewellery, and also have a habit of never taking their staple pieces off, we have just the brand for you.
Hey Harper specialises in jewellery that is actually made from stainless steel but has the sort of specialist coating that means it will keep its bright yellow-gold colour and shine throughout hundreds of wears – even if you're sleeping, showering and sweating while wearing it.
BAR Jewellery
For minimalist pieces with maximalist impact, turn to burgeoning jewellers BAR.
Refreshingly uninfluenced by the whims of the trend cycle, founder Sophie Mckay uses organic shapes and undulating lines to ensure elegant impact. We love the Drift earrings, which come in either silver or gold, tipped with a tiny, glinting pearl.
V By Laura Vann
Art Deco extravagance is on the cards at V By Laura Vann, a brand acclaimed for making vintage-style shapes an accessible proposition.
The brand describes itself as 'anti-trend', and a quick glance at its exquisite antique-inflected designs showcases just why. Chunky rings and intricate earrings could have been plucked from a previous decade – perhaps, they'll become pieces you'll pass down the generations.
Otiumberg
Founded by London-based sisters Christie and Rosanna Wollenberg in 2016, Otiumberg is a fashion insider favourite for chic, minimalist jewellery that's as timeless as it is cool. Think classic chain necklaces, everyday hoops and stackable rings, as well as edgy ear cuffs and tiny diamond-studded initial tag pendants. The brand has just opened its debut flagship store in Holland Park, so you can now go and try everything on IRL. We challenge you to try and leave empty-handed.
Kimai
If you don't know Kimai for their BCorp credentials, or the fact Meghan Markle regularly wears their designs, or the fact Dragon's Den's Steven Bartlett recently invested in the company, then you seriously need to read up.
The female-founded brand produces lab-grown diamonds and 18k recycled gold for shoppers who care about transparency in the jewellery industry and elevating their everyday looks with timeless pieces of modern, high-quality pieces.
Daphine
Daphine is one of our favourite jewellery brands for chunky accessories, which is why we love that fact the brand - which designs pieces in London and Paris - recently teamed up with content creator Monikh for a second collection.
Inspired by earth elements, like jade and jasper stones, the partnership has produced sculptural elements gold and silver pieces (of which there are 11) which aim to bring good luck, abundance, peace and well-being.
Phoria
A brand-new name that's about to boom, Phoria creates chunky, commanding pieces that masterfully blend sparkle with a little subversive edge. Designer and Tiffany & Co. alumnus Charlotte crafts each of her unique jewels with versatility in mind: the two-tone earrings are reversible, while the chain-link rings are designed to be worn in multiple ways, and the bracelets are entirely customisable.
Maria Black
Specialising in all kinds of cartilage earrings (though their other pieces are just as gorgeous), Maria Black's work treads the line between dainty and edgy, superbly.
Astrid & Miyu
If you're looking for trend-led, quality items on a budget, then Astrid & Miyu is the place to shop, whether online or in the fabulous new Carnaby Street flagship. Dainty solid-gold huggies, signet rings, zodiac pendants and sparkling cartilage earrings are all on the menu this season, and you can also go ultra-personal with welded bracelets and bespoke 'story chains' in-store.
Home of Hai
As well as dupion silk separates and corsage-strewn handbags, Home of Hai also creates delightfully ladylike Baroque pearl earrings and necklaces.
Completedworks
Completedworks is something of a fashion girl favourite at the moment, with around half the ELLE UK office proudly rocking the brand's earrings or necklaces at any given time.
Mateo
Mateo, designed by Matthew Harris, is all about fine jewellery with a modern feel. Featuring 'toi et moi' rings, pearls and diamonds galore, Mateo indulges in quality materials but with minimalist design.
Shrimps
Sitting somewhere between pretty and surreal, Shrimps' pearl-heavy jewellery is as playful as it is fashionable.
Pacharee
Pacharee-Sophie Rogers' eponymous brand recently made its runway debut for 3.1 Phillip Lim's 20th anniversary NYFW show, but jewellery lovers have been eyeing up her abstract designs for some time now. The Thai-Swiss designer hand-selects pearls and gemstones with unique characteristics, before designing pieces that allow their raw beauty to truly shine. We love Pacharee's colourful alphabet necklaces and striking pearl earrings in particular.
Elhanati
Largely handcrafted in sterling silver, Elhanati's romantic pieces would work as well as wedding jewellery as it would paired with a white t-shirt.
Wave Antiques
Wave Antiques is a fifth generation family-owned antique jewellery business nestled in Hatton Garden, London. Their captivating curation of fine jewellery has stood the test of time, and each piece undergoes a meticulous evaluation, ensuring its genuine origin and historical significance. Wave Antiques also donates 1% of every sale to ocean-focused charities, meaning you’ll not only be acquiring a cherished item, you’ll be contributing to the wellbeing of our oceans, too.
