Crosses, amulets, and iconic symbols historically associated with faith and protection are making a comeback. Not only for their spiritual significance, but also for their aesthetic value.

High jewelry houses are revisiting the theme with a modern perspective.

Pomellato, for example, places the cross at the heart of the Bisanzio collection, with crosses adorned with colorful gemstones. Tiffany & Co. returns with designs by Jean Schlumberger. One of the most important jewelry designers of the 20th century, he redefined their design when he joined Tiffany & Co. in 1956. Meanwhile, Bvlgari offers rose gold versions with aquamarines, tourmalines, and diamonds. 

More and more jewelry designers are approaching the cross with a more contemporary outlook. Combining diamonds with dark metals, creating pieces that move between sculptural, minimalist, and sometimes gothic.

The trend isn't limited to the large international houses. On the Greek scene of contemporary jewelry making, the interest in symbols with deeper meaning is also evident.

Nikos Koulis, for example, approaches jewelry as an architectural form, where geometry and light substitute for direct symbolism, creating pieces that exude power. Kessaris maintains a more direct connection to tradition, incorporating timeless, diamond-embellished motifs into contemporary creations that balance between the classic and the current.

Lito Fine Jewelry, on the other hand, with its strong use of symbols, such as the eye. It highlights the timeless need for jewelry that functions not only as decorative elements but also as personal «talismans.» In these cases, the meaning is left to be shaped by the wearer themselves.

The Greek approach differentiates itself precisely at this point. The symbols may not be stripped of their religious interpretation, as one might expect. But at the same time, they re-emerge as elements of cultural memory and personal identity. The jewelry thus becomes an object that balances between aesthetics, tradition, and individual interpretation.

In the market for collectible jewelry,.

When history becomes relevant again

Part of the trend is also attributed to the return of early 2000s aesthetics, where similar symbols had a strong presence. However, the current version appears more mature and layered. It's not just a revival, but a redefinition.

The same dynamic was recently reinforced by an event that brought the issue back into the spotlight in a tangible way. A striking amethyst and diamond cross, by Garrard, which Princess Diana had worn repeatedly in the late 1980s, was put up for auction by Sotheby's in London, drawing intense interest.

The jewel, known as the 1920s Attallah Cross, sold for 163,800 pounds (193,000 euros), a price that, according to the house's experts, may be a record for a cross.

Its aesthetic value played a decisive role, as did its provenance, since the connection with Diana continues to lend particular weight to any object associated with her image. The winning bid came from Kim Kardashian, who in recent years has systematically invested in items linked to iconic figures of the 20th century.

This auction also serves as an indication of a broader comeback for the cross, recalling its strong presence in the 1990s and early 2000s, when figures like Drew Barrymore and Cindy Crawford systematically incorporated it into their style. At the core of this aesthetic remains Madonna, from her *Like a Virgin* (1984) era, who helped establish the cross as a styling element.

However, the question today is more complex: can one wear a cross purely as an aesthetic choice without touching on issues of cultural or religious sensitivity? According to Michael Coan, professor of jewelry design at the Fashion Institute of Technology, the cross is not exclusively a Christian symbol. The shape has appeared since prehistory and in different cultures has been associated with (or interpreted as representing) concepts such as the four points of the compass or the four elements of nature, which also explains its timeless, almost universal appeal. This allows designers to approach the motif as an «open» symbol, capable of appealing to different audiences.

At the same time, collections that draw inspiration from different traditions, from the Egyptian ankh cross to the infinity symbol of Eastern religions, show that the interest is not limited to a single faith, but extends to a broader system of symbolism.

In this context, the cross returns as an object with special weight, aesthetic, historical, but also collectible significance. Its return is not just about fashion, but about value: an object that gains meaning through its history and its place in the present.

Domestic jewelry brands present their proposals for the 2026 charm, pieces that, although associated with the coming of the new year, have that timeless aura that makes them much more than a seasonal amulet. In fact, the charm has made a dynamic comeback as an everyday jewel, a small but essential symbol of personal intention, protection and aesthetic identity.

Wuri: From tradition to statement piece

The tradition of the gouro in Greece has deep roots. From ancient Greece to modern times, our culture has always sought ways to weave good luck into everyday life. In its modern version, the charm is no longer an object that “ends” with January; instead, it has evolved into a statement detail that is worn all year round. Precisely because its meaning does not belong to just one day. It belongs to everything we want to remember, honour and attract.

Greek brands have played a key role in this transformation. With careful design, premium materials and high jewellery details, they transform a symbolism into an object of personal aesthetics. A number, a symbol, a geometry or a word acquire a clear, minimalist language that does not scream “good luck” but captures an intention: to start the year and every day with light.

A tender gift

A good luck charm as a gift is still one of the most loving gestures. A charm chosen for someone you love always carries a message within it. And when it is well crafted, with a balance between symbol and jewellery, it becomes a gift that does not “sleep” in a drawer, but is worn, accompanies, becomes part of a personal narrative.

For those who choose it for themselves, it serves as a little reminder of self-care. A subtle reminder that you deserve something beautiful, something to “hold you” through the year. And maybe that's why the charms of recent years have become so popular. Because they're not just charms, they're a quiet statement of optimism and elegance. So this year, the Greek brands’ charms don't just accompany the change of year, they illuminate the entire horizon of personal style.

Silver can provide a striking appearance at a fraction of the cost of gold in many cases. And some of the industry's most beloved brands are fans of it. So they offer a plethora of stunning silver jewellery.

But in a consumer world that is often concerned with prestige, is silver enough? Emili Vesilind, co-host of the Rough Cut jewelry podcast, impressed me with her thoughts on Substack about how to present and sell silver to customers.

Certainly, it is often the least expensive metal and economically less valuable than gold. But that means it must also have less value. Vesilind argues that using the «demi-fine» label for silver (and we're not talking about gold-plated silver or vermeil, which are accurately categorized in this way) is not the treatment this precious metal deserves.

«Most jewelry enthusiasts I've talked to on this topic consider demi-fine vermeil or gold-plated gold pieces. To them, calling silver «demi-fine» is actually misleading. And it ultimately hurts retailers because the label implies that silver is not «precious jewelry». It is demi. It is lightweight precious jewelry,» Vesilind writes.

«And given the explosive growth of the silver jewellery category - fuelled by renewed interest in collectible silver jewellery from designers such as Elsa Perretti for Tiffany & Co, Vivianna Torun Bülow-Hübe, Georg Jensen and Margot de Taxco - is a pretty weak excuse to persist,» Vesilind continues. «According to Jewelers Collective, 53% of jewelry retailers reported an increase in silver jewelry sales in 2024, compared to 2023.».

The fact that something is a less expensive alternative does not make it «cheap». Silver jewelry can be rich in both style and substance. As evidenced by the pieces featured here.

You know a good piece of silver jewellery when you hold it in your hands. It's smooth, cold and has a heavy feel that is sublime.

Putting chunky silver jewellery in your windows is also a good strategy for the holiday season. As Gen Z seems to be obsessed with everything from the 90s and early 2000s. Who can blame them?;

As summer gives way to autumn, lightweight looks with linen fabrics and airy dresses are being retired. They make way for more structured, yet «sophisticated» ensembles. But as much as clothes have the power to define our image, it's jewellery that gives the final - and most impressive - say in style. A well-chosen necklace, a pair of earrings or a special watch can transform even the simplest outfit into a fashion statement.

This autumn brings us six powerful trends that combine elegance with fantasy. Some draw inspiration from the past. Others experiment with the future. But they all have one common denominator: they make everyday dressing more interesting, more personal, more chic.

The trend that started in the summer continues in the autumn. Thin cords with statement pendants - either in the form of abstract sculptures or natural stones. Or even symbolic motifs - give the outfit a bohemian yet sophisticated dimension. They are the perfect accessory to update your everyday looks without any effort.

The metal combination

Gold and silver together? Until yesterday it was considered forbidden, but today it is the most modern way to wear jewellery. Rings that combine different metals, contrasting bracelets or earrings that play with double tones. They create an unpretentious elegance and give your style a new dynamic.

Charms Charms Charms

The great return of charms is a fact. Whether worn on bracelets, necklaces or even pins. Charms add a playful and personal touch to any look. From symbol charms to small objects with an artistic flair, charms are becoming the most «human» jewellery this year. Because they tell stories and carry meanings.

Modern Pearls

Forget the «proper» pearls of the past. In 2025 pearls take on a fresh, almost avant-garde dimension. They are worn in asymmetrical rows, combined with gemstones, with metals as well as with more modern materials. Thus, the timeless jewellery acquires a new, dynamic character that suits both minimal and more daring outfits.

Mismatched earrings

Asymmetrical, different from each other, mismatched earrings are perhaps the most playful trend of the season. From small studs in different designs to large, sculptural pieces that look like they came out of an art gallery. These earrings add a unique identity to any look. Dare to try them, even if you're not a fan of excess-there are options for all moods.

Coloured watches

The watch ceases to be just a classic accessory and becomes a fashion statement. In autumn 2025 the dials, straps and details are filled with bright colours. From bold reds and deep blues to vivid greens and even pink shades. So a colourful watch can liven up the most serious office look or upgrade a simple pair of jeans with a white shirt. It is the accessory that combines practicality and style in the most subversive way.

The sparkling chains that run along the back create a subtle but striking effect. The back necklace is subtle but bold and can make a simple dress look much more interesting. These necklaces are usually seen at special events or in looks that bring to mind the golden age of old Hollywood. They are again the favorites for the red carpet.

These accessories range from subtle and minimal to striking and carved. They are more than just a simple complementary element; they are the star of the show.

The history of the back necklace trend begins with Princess Diana herself, the beloved idol of the 1990s. Diana, always looked stunning in her evening backless dresses. But she chose to complement them with long necklaces adorned with large, beautiful stones. She wore these necklaces not only as jewelry but also as a message.

As he broke down the fashion stereotypes of the time, he created a new definition of elegance. Thus the back necklace became an essential part of her style with confidence.

In 2000, the amazing Cate Blanchett graced the Oscar stage, looking stunning in a black dress with a back necklace that was adorned with gold detailing. Blanchett's look was one of the most exquisite examples of how powerful simple elegance can be. The actress embraced the accessory as an integral part of her style throughout the 2010s. She therefore proved to be one of the red carpet pioneers who dared to revamp the look with the back necklace.

In 2021, at the premiere of «Spider-Man: No Way Home» in Paris, Zendaya, one of the style icons of the new generation, took the back necklace trend to a new level. While the dress from Roberto Cavalli's archive, embellished with metallic details that accentuated the spine, evoked the character Doc Ock from the Marvel universe, Zendaya added another theatrical yet elegant dimension to her contemporary red carpet style.

At the 2025 Grammy Awards, Sabrina Carpenter redefined Hollywood glamour with a modern interpretation. Carpenter, complemented her elegant JW Anderson gown with a striking diamond back necklace. It was designed by Chopard. She thus showed off her plunging back neckline with a magnificence that was reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe. This piece reached to the middle of her spine. So that made her one of the most talked about names of the night.

The 2025 Academy Awards presented some modern versions of the classic back necklace trend. Michelle Yeoh complemented her Boucheron-designed tie necklace with asymmetrical earrings and a «Plume de Paon» ring from the same brand. This harmonious choice reflected her classic elegance. While the unusual shape of the necklace gave her look a modern touch.

At the 2025 Oscars, Margaret Qualley wore a black velvet backless dress by Chanel. But she completed her look with a diamond necklace that fell elegantly down her back. Maybe she won't always be in style. But the back necklace can be the focal point of the right style. A chain dangling from a shirt or some sparkling stones shining through an open-back dress can make an outfit look much more interesting.

The main trends in men's jewellery are unique chains, symbols as well as pendants. As Ann Grimmett, Jared's vice president of merchandising, says. So she predicts that Jared and other jewelers will sell a lot of yellow or white gold and silver. But also mixed materials like beads and leather for Father's Day.

«Men are looking for pieces they can wear every day for multiple occasions,» says Grimmett. «They also want pieces that feel personal to them or have an element of personalization.».

A gift that is unique or different is ranked as the most important thing to shoppers in the US. According to the annual Father's Day survey by the National Retail Federation (NRF), followed by a gift that creates a special memory.

Grimmett notes that even with a popular Father's Day gift, such as a wristwatch, personalization is possible.

«Depending on their style, they might like a classic watch with a leather strap. Or a watch with more detail, such as a dive watch or a racing watch,» he says. «Also, colour accents on the dial are trending in the watch category.».

Golf-themed jewellery and accessories are usually a favourite for Father's Day. So Detroit-based brand Rebel Nell has unveiled a limited-edition collection of pieces made from material reused from the assistants' shirts worn during the Rocket Classic, the city's annual PGA Tour golf tournament.

«At Rebel Nell, we believe in giving new life to meaningful materials. But there's something so special about these shirts,» says Amy Peterson, co-founder and CEO of the company.

«They are history, they have been part of defining moments of the tournament. And now they are part of a new story, a story that supports women as they rewrite their future.».

Rebel Nell's new collection includes necklaces, bracelets, cufflinks, key chains, drinkware selections and divot tools. All made in Detroit by women with workplace issues. Each item is crafted to retain the texture, color and character of the caddie bib. And it celebrates the energy and camaraderie of the tournament game, Peterson says.

Father's Day spending could reach an all-time high of $24 billion this year. According to NRF research (conducted with Prosper Insights & Analytics). Spending on the holiday reaches $22.4 billion in 2024 and $22.9 billion in 2023, NRF said.

«Americans embrace important traditions and holidays and this Father's Day. So spending on gifts and other holiday items is expected to reach record levels.» As group vice president of industry and consumer insights, Katherine Cullen said. «As consumers strive to recognize the father figures in their lives, retailers are prepared with gift ideas, special offers and convenient shopping options to help customers find the right gifts.».

Consumers plan to spend an average of $199.38 per person on Father's Day. That's nearly $10 more than last year's average of $189.81, according to the NRF survey.

People between the ages of 35 and 44 tend to spend the most - $278.90 on average - of all age groups on Father's Day, NRF reported. Adding that these consumers are increasing their budget by an average of $27 on average compared to last year.

Almost half (48%) of all those surveyed by NRF plan to buy a gift for their father or stepfather. While a quarter of them are shopping for their spouse. Meanwhile, 12% are buying a gift for their son. But 9% for the brother, 8% for a friend and 6% for their grandfather.

Similar to 2024, online retailers are the most popular shopping destination for American consumers. As reported by 41% in the NRF survey. They are followed by department stores (35%), discount stores (23%), specialty stores (22%) and local or small businesses (19%).

No one can deny the important role of jewelry in the style game. The fashion advice that asserts that “a look can never be complete without jewellery” is particularly relevant. Because jewelry completes the puzzle of charm, contributes to exceptional elegance and tells stories that hide emotions. Jewelry, more than any other piece in a look, carries the value of personal as well as special connection. It becomes an unbreakable link that unites different eras, generations, moments and tastes.

With summer calling for light and cool outfits, jewellery is here to add the elegant touches of sparkle that will enhance even the most simple and unpretentious looks. With the sunlight and the blue of the sea flooding into our thoughts and characterizing the atmosphere of the season.

Jewellery with precious and semi-precious stones that reflect the colours of the clear sky and the shades of blue of the sea become the dominant trend and promise style with a genuine summer soul.

From clear Blue Topaz and mysterious London Blue Topaz to ethereal Iolite, Lapis Lazuli with golden highlights, seductive Turquoise, dreamy Aquamarina, rare and unpredictable Tanzanite, and royal Blue Sapphires, blue is the absolute ruler of summer style. Bound in 18K gold or sterling silver, Li-LA-LO's natural stone jewellery becomes an unwavering symbol of elegance any time of the summer you choose to wear it, from the beach to your evening outings.

Summer Gems: every stone a story

Each stone has its own story to tell. The one that comes to “tie in” with the personality, style, experiences and memories that accompany each woman. Their symbolism and qualities contribute to your personal narrative in the way you dress and help you create looks with unbeatable value.

Blue Topaz:

The purest, clearest version of blue, reflecting the brilliance of the summer sky. It is associated with clarity of thought and calmness of mind. Perfect for day-to-night looks, it elevates a minimal white dress or a satin top in a neutral hue.

London Blue Topaz:

The most mysterious yet sophisticated choice. It creates inner strength, confidence and stability. It uniquely matches navy or black outfits, creating a chic dramatic contrast.

Iolite:

Blue-purple, with slides and dreamy character. It enhances intuition and spiritual clarity. Wear it with silk or draped fabrics for a bohemian-glam aesthetic.

Lapis Lazuli:

With its rich, unique shade and golden veins, it evokes mythology and ancient Greek refinement. It is the stone of wisdom, honesty and inner truth. It is the ideal choice for a look that straddles the line between ethnic and ancient Greek. It goes well with total white looks or as a pop touch in earthy colors.

Turquoise:

The absolute summer must. It brings to mind the Cyclades and their turquoise waters. Protective stone - a symbol of luck, freedom and positive mood. Wear it in layering with other metallic elements, ideal for beachwear or summer festivals.

Aquamarina:

Soft, fluid blue that reminds of the calm sea. It symbolizes purity, flow and communication. It is ideal for the romantic ensembles you will wear on the island. Also combine it with pastel clothes or floral prints for a dreamy mood.

Tanzanite:

Rare yet hypnotically charming, it stands out for its stunning dichroism - from deep blue to violet, depending on how it flirts with the light. It even aids in inner regeneration, spiritual connection and creativity. Its iridescent glow also makes it ideal for evening looks with a luxe feel. Wear it also with slip dresses in nighttime hues or metallic textures that will make its color play even more with the light.

Blue Sapphires:

Classy but irresistible! Their depth and intensity bring intense energy and dynamism. Also a symbol of wisdom, loyalty, protection and prestige, sapphires are suggested for sleek looks with references to power dressing and even resort looks.

However worn, jewellery with these stones acts as a summer confidence filter. They play with the sunlight as they radiate with every movement, adding depth to the look, but also enhancing the tan and exuding authentic elegance.

Some 50,0000 watch enthusiasts and collectors will descend to see the hottest creations from Rolex, Patek Philippe, Cartier and many others. Here are the three big key trends from the so-called Olympics of the watch world that everyone should have on their radar.

Timeless jewellery

Gemstone watches will be the focus of attention. Jewellery is being lauded as one of the most resilient categories in the current downturn in luxury goods consumption. So this comes as no surprise.

Dior and Tiffany & Co were pioneers when they announced the trend of jewellery with gemstones in January at High Fashion Week. The Grand Soir Automate Miss Dior watches combine an automatic movement with Dior's haute couture tradition. The dials are adorned with Monsieur Dior's sketches depicting the Belle de Mai dress. He imagined it for spring/summer 1954, but also the Palmyre dress, from autumn/winter 1952.

Tiffany, meanwhile, has unveiled five new fabulous jewelry watches. Two of which chronicle the Bird on a Rock, the house's iconic brooch. Designed by Jean Schlumberger in 1965, it now spins delightfully on a dial with a flick of the wrist.

At Watches and Wonders, Cartier's Panthère collection was updated with another dazzling design. With animal prints that will surely catch the eye. «We try to work on the panther's posture, to express its movement, telling a story with the watch.» Explains Marie-Laure Cérède, creative director of jewellery and watchmaking at Cartier. The house is also debuting the Tressage. A new collection of jewellery watches featuring a great charm of twisted polished gold. While some models are embellished with sapphires and diamonds.

This year, Van Cleef & Arpels celebrates the 90th birthday of the Cadenas clasp watch. One of the style makers« favourite watches, which has long been a favourite of the genre. The latest iteration of the Cadenas, which means »padlock" in French, comes in a stunning version with pavé diamonds accented with sapphires.

Chopard, meanwhile, highlights its signature L'Heure du Diamant collection. Literally translated: the «diamond hour» collection. Which comes with a chunky diamond bezel made with a special bezel and V-shaped pins for extra sparkle. Yet another new campaign featuring Bella Hadid completes the offering.

Elsewhere, Jaeger-LeCoultre adds technical means to the combination. The limited edition Reverso One Precious Colours required 60 hours of enamel work. But also another 40 hours to set the watch's 277 diamonds.

Necklace watches are also trendy. Piaget's new sautoir from the 1960s has a vintage style. With gold rope details and a white opal dial. Chanel, meanwhile, hangs watch dials from choker chains or pendant-style necklaces. They're inspired by the brand's aesthetic proposition (think: eyeshadow and lipstick palettes - yes, really).

Calm tones

In times of uncertainty, calm and subdued tones tend to offer a kind of comfort. Check out Mocha Mousse, Pantone's 2025 colour of the year. It makes sense, then, that so many watch brands also offer a gentle mood. With dials and watch straps in natural, earthy and mild pale tones.

Hublot's new Spirit of Big Bang chronographs are now available in natural shades of sand beige, dark green and sky blue. The colours permeate from the porthole-shaped ceramic case to the rubber straps. As well as the hour markers, chronograph counters and hands.

Oris also embraces warm, neutral tones. Introducing a range of new dial colours in the ultra-chic Big Crown Pointer Date collection. There's terracotta and green in pastel styles and a smaller model in beige. As well as deeper tones of yellow, lilac and blue grey.

Grey dolphin is the colour Louis Vuitton chose for the new Tambour Taiko Spin Time collection. The collection was released in January. Featuring the house's signature timekeeping display,inspired by vintage travel paintings found in airports and train stations. The watch is available in six different models. Also including gemstone designs and another one paired with a leather strap in beige.

Sports watches with complexity

Luxury sports watches have been a trend for some time now. But for 2025, several brands are adding extra mechanical power to their signature ranges. Following the revival of the Ingenieur steel sports watch in 2023, IWC welcomed its first in-house perpetual calendar to the collection. Set in a striking blue dial with the Ingenieur's distinctive, engraved grid pattern, it's an elegant tribute to one of horology's most beloved timekeepers.

Meanwhile, Zenith is also celebrating its 160th birthday with a trilogy of its most famous chronographs, all crafted in striking, bold blue ceramic.

The new Chronomaster Sport, Defy Skyline Chronograph and Pilot Chronograph can be purchased as an anniversary set. But if you choose them individually, we'd opt for the Pilot flyback chronograph with its super cool, large date display.

TAG Heuer's new Formula 1 watches (the brand is the official timekeeper of F1), which come in bright colours and are now equipped with the watch company's Solargraph movement. A two-minute exposure to direct sunlight charges the watch for the entire day, while a full charge of around 40 hours will keep the watch running for up to 10 months - even if it's stuck in a dark drawer.

Comfort. Warmth. Simple pleasures. That's what Pantone's trend experts believe we'll all be looking for in 2025. And the shade they believe best captures this zeitgeist is Mocha Mousse. A rich yet velvety soft brown shade. 

Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, describes the latest colour of the year as «sophisticated and rich. But at the same time an unpretentious classic color.».

In jewellery, this translates into a renewed focus on earth-toned gemstones. Stones that reflect the warmth and richness of Mocha Mousse, such as brown diamonds. Nada Ghazal combines frosty-brown rough diamonds with 18-karat matte yellow gold. In special editions of her Malak and Fuse designs. While Eva Zuckerman, founder of Eva Fehren, highlights the Tea ring, with its 3.02-carat pear-shaped diamond. With a fancy brown-yellow colour, as a perfect representation of the trend. 

«We've definitely seen a trend towards less traditional colours in jewellery in recent years. So I have no doubt that shades of brown will be very popular this year,» says Zuckerman.  

Bea Bongiasca similarly uses natural yellow-brown diamonds in bespoke collections. Wasting them perfectly for the Mocha Mousse. For ready-to-wear jewellery, she combines smoky quartz with bold black enamel. A combination she used on her latest Baby Vine ring, which has proven to be one of the best sellers in the collection.

«Mocha Mousse can work well because it's elegant, and it doesn't stray too far from the color of the precious metal and stones,» says Bongiasca, adding that she plans to create a ring that incorporates a gemstone and an enamel that both match the trend of the shade. 

Dries Criel offers a rich version of Mocha Mousse with natural brown zircons and tiger eyes. He is currently working on a unique design that has yet to be revealed, but which will focus on a brown zircon cushion cut.

«Mocha Mousse is a timeless yet distinctive colour that will continue to outshine trends for a long time to come,» says Criel, reflecting on the enduring appeal of the shade. It's a shade with the power to bring warmth and comfort to the hearts of jewellery lovers long after Pantone has moved on to the next colour of the year.
