Jewelry is the most timeless fashion piece; for hundreds of years, men and women have collected pieces – gold, silver, rose gold, beaded, colorful, the possibilities are endless. However, with fine jewelry comes a high price. For those who love collecting jewelry, it can be unrealistic to build a large collection when each piece costs hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. As a “jewelry connoisseur” myself, I have purchased from multiple affordable jewelry stores on the quest for the best low-price, high-quality jewelry there is. Below are some of my favorite stores and tips for purchasing designer-looking jewelry without the scary designer price tag.
First up, Indigo Lune. The brand, started by siblings Jules and Chanté, focuses on creating tarnish-free jewelry that can be worn anytime, anywhere. Prices range from $40-$100 per piece, but as the brand guarantees, they will not tarnish like some other lower-priced jewelry does. This guarantee is asserted with confidence as Indigo Lune offers a two-year warranty on all pieces. Additionally, more often than not, the brand publicizes a 2-for-1 deal, lowering the price in half!
Standing at a slightly higher price point, JTG Jewelry offers a wide selection of unique pieces. Offering both dainty and fine jewelry as well as chunkier, more outgoing pieces, JTG especially focuses on color. A women-owned brand, they also create jewelry that does not tarnish, making it wearable in all situations. I love this brand because their pieces are each so individual and can be mixed and matched to create a stack to perfectly match each person and their distinctive style.
Next up is Pavoi. The best-selling brand on Amazon focuses on staying on trend with popular styles of water-resistant jewelry. This brand stands at the lowest price point of all these brands. By offering trendy styles for a lower price, Pavoi allows customers to experiment with new styles without worrying about overspending on pieces that may soon go out of fashion. Each piece goes for around $10-$30, making Pavoi the perfect brand for collecting large stacks or helping people find their favorite designs.
Just recently, I had an amazing experience with the brand Truly Blessed Jewels. I received their Briar CZ Hand Chain as a gift last summer, and for over a year, I wore the bracelet day and night, rarely taking it off. Even though it was a delicate and fragile piece, it held up well until the chain got caught on something and broke. I contacted the brand and sent a photo of the ripped chain, and they immediately offered to repair the chain free of charge. I sent the bracelet and within a week, they sent it back as good as new! TBJ products vary in price depending on the material, style, and durability of the piece, but the brand is extremely reliable and authentic.
Finally, is the brand Dovianna. Priding themselves on creating hypoallergenic, tarnish-resistant jewelry and having 365 day warranty, Dovianna is one of the most dependable brands. I have owned a pair of earrings from this brand for over two years, and they look brand new even after wearing them daily. They make elegant and dainty pieces with extreme durability, able to last a lifetime. This brand creates both high-end pieces ready for weddings, gifts, and special celebrations, but also produces lower-priced jewelry perfectly made to accessorize everyday looks.
Overall, the trick to finding the best high-quality, long-lasting pieces for a reasonable price point is to do as much research as possible. Read reviews, listen to recommendations, and read the product’s information. These tips and tricks are perfect for anyone who loves adding sparkle to their collection and refreshing their everyday look on a budget.
