Designer Gifts: The Latest Men’s Jewellery for the Label Lover in Your Life

2024 has been the year that men’s jewellery really got into its stride, shedding its traditional image, embracing innovation and emerging as a bold and brilliant category in its own right. What began with Paul Mescal’s chain in Normal People has evolved into an unstoppable men’s jewellery movement that has made wearing just a necklace seem positively restrained.

The 2010s marked the start of the male jewellery renaissance. Today, the trend has matured into something more permanent. When it is more unusual for a male celebrity not to be wearing a jewel on the red carpet, as it has been in 2024, you know you have hit peak fashion. From young tastemakers like Timothée Chalamet and Barry Keoghan to The Bear lead Jeremy Allen White and Succession star Kieran Culkin, there have been numerous red-carpet looks this year to inspire your Christmas shopping for men’s jewellery gifts.

Beyond the simple chains, signet rings and cord bracelets that have ingrained themselves in a man’s wardrobe, luxury Maisons are experiencing a growing demand for statement pieces. This year, some of the biggest names in jewellery have brought us diamond, pearl and hardstone jewels for men that cater to more adventurous tastes. From signet rings with a twist to colourful pendants, titanium jewels and spiky pearls, here’s our pick of the best new designer men’s jewellery gifts for the male label lover in your life.

Don’t Miss: Les Gastons Vuitton by Louis Vuitton

2024 got off to a strong start with the launch of Les Gastons Vuitton, Louis Vuitton’s first fine jewellery collection aimed primarily at men. Then, just a month ago, the Maison revealed Le Damier de Louis Vuitton, a genderless collection confirming that men wearing diamonds is a growing trend.

Named after founder Louis Vuitton’s grandson, Gaston, the 18-piece Les Gastons Vuitton collection ranges from chunky rings to Cuban link bracelets and signet rings, engraved all over with the iconic Louis Vuitton monogram. Inspired by the elegance and versatility of denim, the blue titanium pieces are stylish and playful, with the Puzzle Ring featuring three spinning bands that, when aligned, display the LV initials.

Clever Gifting: John Hardy Jewels by Reed Krakoff

Two years ago, Reed Krakoff took creative control of John Hardy. Previously responsible for reinvigorating the heritage houses of Tiffany & Co. and Coach, Krakoff is overseeing the creative evolution of this artisanal brand founded in Bali. In 2024, he spearheaded the launch of a new category of jewellery devoted to men. With nods to the brand’s Indonesian heritage, giftable John Hardy jewels include signet rings set with a slice of hardstone—the tiger’s eye version is stunning, hand-carved with the motif of a rising sun—and easy-to-wear tag pendants, coloured-in with enamel.

Top Brands: Tiffany & Co. and David Yurman for Men

For the more daring dresser who is open to exploring unexpected silhouettes and gems, new pearl designs in the Tiffany Titan by Pharrell Williams collection contrast these lustrous gems with the collection’s signature spike motif. And David Yurman offers the ultimate opportunity for a festive splurge with The Vault, its first high jewellery collection for men. Primed to take home the prize for greatest Christmas gift this year, the Deco Amulet is a standout piece, fusing the geometric lines of Art Deco with a statement emerald cut diamond centre stone, dressed down with a sleek box chain.

Red Carpet Lapels: A Men’s Brooch from Dior

Dior unveiled a high jewellery brooch on the Men’s S/S 2025 catwalk during Paris Fashion Week in June, a collaboration between Kim Jones, artistic director of Dior Homme, and Victoire de Castellane. A one-of-one piece, it shows how male jewellery really came into its own this year.

From Tasaki’s Manga collaboration jewellery, created to celebrate the Japanese pearl jeweller’s 70^th anniversary, to the relaunch of Gucci Horsebit with a unisex identity and a new, stackable bangle at Graff—the British jeweller’s first unisex design—2024 is the year that men’s jewellery became less uniform, increasingly expressive and 100% more gift-worthy.
