Much to our delight, the best men’s jewelry has been evolving. Husbands, boyfriends, friends, fathers, sons have so much more to pick from than a chain necklace or a leather wrap bracelet—and even those have gotten better if that’s still your fancy. Think stones, color, mixed materials, and sometimes a bit of sparkle for the more daring of the lot.

The men’s jewelry renaissance has gained steam of late thanks to the sartorial pursuits of style icons like Harry Styles, A$AP Rocky, and Daniel Kaluuya. These heavy hitters have helped push the modernization of men’s jewelry and the embracing of styles and materials sometimes thought of as for women only. Then there are some big names in the jewelry world that have expanded their reach to the men’s market. Evan Yurman (son of David Yurman) has spent years perfecting the brand’s approach to the men’s side. Tiffany & Co. launched a dedicated men’s jewelry line of go-to elevated basics just less than two years ago. Foundrae adapted some of its existing jewelry to a more gender-neutral space, and Mikimoto partnered with Comme des Garçons to add the perfect amount of edge to heritage pearls.

Below, our guide to the best men’s jewelry brands—some old, some new, and all worthy of gifting.

Beth Bugdaycay’s Foundrae is wildly popular in women’s jewelry but she has recently expanded her approach to design and styling of her pieces to appeal to men.

A perfect combination of two Japanese powerhouse brands, Mikimoto and Comme des Garçons have created a fabulous alternative to the classic pearl necklace.

Remiss not to be mentioned, Chrome Hearts is the favorite of many stylish men (think Virgil Abloh, who is such a fan he’s done collaborations and pop-ups with the brand).
