Goldilocks jewellery, not too cheap, not too expensive

Icanttakethisanymore · 10/09/2024 13:06

I don't have very much jewellery; I have a few very valuable things but not much to accessorise an outfit (a nice statement necklace, for example). I don't want to buy total cheap shit but equally I am not looking to spend thousands. Can anyone recommend a brand where the jewellery feels reasonably well made but an item might be £70-£100 to give a ballpark. Obviously I am not expecting expensive materials for this price point, which is fine.

I really rate Jeremy Herber jewellery,it's fantastic quality really wearable but just a bit different, I have a few pieces.

James Garland Taylor is my current favourite, really good quality silver.

Ottoman Hands do some nice pieces at this price point, quite a particular style though!

This is quite different to my typical style; I tend to go for geometric shapes, cool colours (silver / platinum / white gold). However, some of the pieces are lovely and I do have some outfits which would definitely work with this style.

I've bought my daughter a few things from Jurassic Jewellery. Beautiful quality items.

You can often find vintage 9ct gold in that price range on eBay, I particularly rate charity sellers like the British Heart Foundation who sell appraised vintage gold so you can be confident it's genuine. For things like classic chains, vintage pieces are often better value for money as they're heavier/not hollow.

I also like independent designers like Studio Adorn and Darte Jewellery for modern, simple styles.
