the fabl August 15, 2025 3 min read

Men's jewellery is no longer just an accessory - it's a statement of identity and individuality. From big and bold pieces to sleek minimalism, 2025 is witnessing a renaissance in men’s adornment, with jewellery playing a key role in how modern men express themselves.

Whether you’re a fashion enthusiast or new to the jewellery scene, here’s your guide to the current men’s jewellery trends.

Chunky chains with a luxe twist

Oversized chains are continuing their reign, but now with elevated materials and refined finishes. Think polished platinum links, titanium with matte textures, and 18ct gold paired with contrasting metals. These bold necklaces aren’t just for streetwear anymore; they’re finding their way into tailored suits and smart-casual looks, giving edge without losing elegance.

Try Toolally’s new Gunmetal Chunky Orb Pendant for a bold accessory.

Pearls are here to stay

No longer reserved for women's fashion, pearls are firmly embedded in men’s jewellery. 2025 takes it a step further with irregular, baroque pearls and dark Tahitian varieties that feel edgy and modern. You’ll find pearls paired with leather, silver, acrylic, or even in asymmetrical earring sets.

Style it: Wear a single pearl earring for a modern masculine touch.

Signet rings, reimagined

The signet ring isn’t new, but at the moment it’s having a serious refresh. We’re seeing organic shapes, engraved textures, and unexpected materials like ceramic and wood. Wearers are also using them as storytelling tools, engraved with symbols, initials, or celestial motifs that reflect personality and values.

Gender-fluid aesthetics

Gender-neutral jewellery is quickly moving into the mainstream. This means pieces that defy traditional masculine or feminine boundaries, embracing soft curves, colourful stones, and delicate detailing. Jewellery is being designed with fluidity in mind, creating pieces that work across a range of styles and identities.

Trending: Multi-stone rings in pastel hues, delicate gold chains layered over sharp tailoring, and androgynous hoop earrings.

Tech-integrated accessories

Smart jewellery is blending fashion and function. This year, we’re seeing rings and bracelets with discreet tech integrations, like chips for contactless payments or fitness tracking - wrapped in stylish designs that look nothing like gadgets. Cool, huh?

Trending: Titanium smart rings that track sleep and heart rate.

Sustainability first

Eco-consciousness is not just a bonus, it’s a baseline. Ethical sourcing, recycled metals, and lab-grown stones are influencing buying decisions. Consumers are increasingly looking into the story behind their jewellery - where it came from, who made it, and what impact it has.

Want to shop better? Look for certifications, brands who work with manufacturing partners audited and accredited by the Responsible Jewellery Council, and brands transparent about their supply chains.

What are you waiting for?

Jewellery in 2025 is a form of self-expression, a nod to cultural evolution, and a celebration of individualism. Whether you are drawn to minimalist or maximalist, the modern man’s jewellery box is open, inclusive, and full of possibility.

So go ahead! Wear that pearl, layer those rings, and let your jewellery do the talking.
