As the leaves begin to turn and wardrobes shift towards rich textures and deeper colours, jewellery follows suit with bold, expressive and meaningful designs. This season brings plenty of inspiration for anyone looking to refresh their style or explore new design ideas.
Sculptural Metals & Chunky Chains
Oversized links, geometric shapes and weighty cuffs are defining the season. Their dramatic profiles work beautifully with layered knitwear and tailored coats, adding strength and structure to autumn styling.

Pearls & Brooches with Impact
Pearls are being re imagined with oversized silhouettes and unexpected pairings, while brooches step firmly back into the spotlight. These designs carry elegance but also bring fresh energy when styled in contemporary ways.

Layering & Stacking
Necklaces in varied lengths and stacked rings in different textures remain central to jewellery styling. The appeal lies in creating a look that feels curated and personal, encouraging makers to experiment with combinations of metal tones, charms and pendants.

Gemstones in Jewel Tones
Emerald, sapphire and garnet take centre stage this autumn. These gemstones echo the richness of the season and add a burst of colour against darker clothing palettes.

Personalisation
Initial pendants, engraved tags and bespoke designs are holding strong. Jewellery that feels unique or carries sentimental value is particularly appealing for autumn gifting occasions.
