Luxury Handmade Jewelry That Transcends Fashion Trends
In a sea of luxury handmade jewelry, handmade accessories stand out for their premium materials, intricate artistry, and timeless design that transcends fickle fashion trends. But even more important than that, is the fact that these pieces were crafted by actual people who care about their work and are committed to ethical and sustainable practices. Independent jewelers are able to build relationships with their suppliers and source materials more conscientiously than larger brands that often operate on such a massive scale that it becomes difficult to maintain strict sourcing standards across the board.
For example, Taylor Sade founded Vertigo out of a desire to create timeless, wearable, and edgy jewelry that was both empowering and individual. Her line utilizes deadstock metal lots to avoid additional mining and allows shoppers to customize their ring sizes to ensure an exact fit. And, for a more playful and budget-friendly option, Glamour readers love Pavoi’s collection of hoop earrings, necklaces, stackable rings, and studs — each made from recycled gold and silver with ethically sourced gemstones.
Inside the World of Luxury Handmade Jewelry
Another brand that’s helping to reclaim the term luxury is Catori Life, whose best-sellers, including a Serpent Ring and an Ankh Necklace, channel Mother Nature and the spirits of the past. They’re able to offer these spiritually rich pieces at an affordable price point thanks to their partnership with artisans who are paid fair wages and use traditional techniques that help them preserve the craft. In addition, they rely on recycled and repurposed metals as well as reclaimed stones to keep their business and supply chain sustainable.
