5 jewelry trends that will be ubiquitous in 2025

Our editors at VERANDA always keep an eye on the latest developments in the design industry, and jewelry design is no exception. Jewels are so indicative of this moment: beautifully designed jewelry helps define how we see the world and our culture and what is interesting and artistic. It helps us analyze what is important and what is not, what we should stop and think about.

Whether it’s the materials, gemstones, or silhouettes that grab our attention, we’re breaking down the important pointers here, with an eye on what you should add next to your own jewelry collection. Here are the biggest jewelry trends for 2025 and beyond.

Fashion and jewelry have always gone hand in hand – aside from being worn together, the attitude of one complements the attitude of the other, many designers from both sides dip their toes (or hands, so to speak) into one another, and that will always be the case it that a back and forth between the two was necessary.

Some say jewelry is forever while fashion is fleeting, but lately jewelry designs are taking cues from their beautiful friend. Diamonds that mimic lace, like in Dior’s Delicat jewelry collection, a Mikimoto pearl necklace with a stone-studded bow clasp, and amazing rock crystal jewelry pieces woven together like the threads of your coziest sweater (hello, Boucheron’s Le Tricot necklace, etc.) Earrings by them History of Style collection) turned our heads.

The rise of enameling

Enamelling has experienced a rapid rise in jewelry design in recent years and months. The clever and direct use of enamel makes it the star of the show and no longer just a substitute for gemstones, as was the case in the past. Whether enamel covers the entire surface of a ring or is used in really interesting settings and facets, enamel has a lot of significance in jewelry design, and we’re here for the bold, colorful and edgy approaches jewelry designers are taking with the material.

Enamel, a decorative coating made from glass powder or minerals that gives the piece a kind of glassy, colored sparkle, is seen front and center on these door knocker earrings from designer Sidney Garber or this Dubai-inspired ring from Savolinna Jewelry.

A nod to nature

The natural world shapes everything we do – the color palettes, the textures, the way the land shifts and morphs – and it all serves as fodder for designers to create. Jewelry designers have always taken inspiration from Mother Nature, and the current situation shows that this is still the case. Le Vian recently took inspiration from the spectacular gold tones seen in the sunsets over the Amalfi Coast and Capri as the sun sinks into the Tyrrhenian Sea, hence the brand’s new Tramonto D’Oro diamond ring, featuring warm chocolate and nude diamonds Shades of yellow gold that mimic the color of the sunset.

Sometimes designers also take inspiration from materials found in nature, such as Octavia Elizabeth’s carved wooden cuff. White diamonds set at intervals in yellow gold adorn the top of the bracelet and give it additional sparkle.

Demi-parure sets

It used to be fashionable to wear matching jewelry sets (much like the fashion nod to the matching two-piece outfits that are all over our Instagram feeds these days). A parure (derived from the French verb paring knife, means to decorate) is a jewelry set that usually consists of a necklace, a pair of earrings, a bracelet and a brooch, while a demi-parure set usually consists of two more pieces such as a necklace and a pair of earrings – the more informal approach, if you will.

In 2024, we are seeing a solid comeback of these demi-parure sets from several jewelry houses. David Morris, Tiffany & Co. and Pomellato have all released statement necklace and earring pairings in their recent high jewelry collections, but these aren’t stuffy or fussy – in fact, they’re fresh, colorful and, dare we say it, avant-garde.

Pomellato’s collection was an ode to the dualism of the city in which the brand is based, and Spinelli du Fuoco’s necklace and earrings perfectly exemplify this cool take on sets. The new jewelry collection from Tiffany & Co Celeste takes a deeper look at Jean Schlumberger’s fascination with the sky, with sets like the Iconic Star mosaic necklace and earrings leading the dazzling suite.

Geometric shapes

Here at VERANDA we are also seeing a shift from overly feminine flourishes and curls to more and more geometric shapes and forms in jewelry settings. Maja Dubrul’s Doppler III earrings, for example, feature stacked tourmalines (paired with an organically shaped South Sea Keshi pearl to turn the pair on its head), bringing the geometry of the stones to the forefront of the design. As an added bonus, Dubrul makes them asymmetrical, which further enhances their impact.

David Yurman’s Carlyle bracelet features interlocking hexagons for a decidedly eye-catching design. It’s reminiscent of the patterns seen in geometric floor tiles or the patterns of David Hicks’ iconic rugs – proving once again that design in all shapes and forms always inspires one another.
