3 Men’s Jewellery Brands to Know

Words by Tony Wilkes

“Most stylish men now wear some level of jewellery,” declares designer Bleue Burnham, whose namesake brand can be found in Menswear on the Second Floor at Harrods. “Jewellery is the punctuation in the sentence of style. You can go without, but the outfit will always be more interesting, impactful and coherent if it’s included.” So, as you update your wardrobe for Spring/Summer 2025, here are three of the best men’s jewellery brands to know – whether you’re a fan of metallic minimalism or forever champion eye-catching gems.

The London-based designer describes his practice as uniting jewellery with an enjoyment of the natural world. Endorsed by the likes of Jacob Elordi, A$AP Rocky and Jude Law, Burnham developed unique craft techniques over the course of years to create his aesthetic calling cards: rich organic surface textures and vibrant gemstones. Launched in 2018, the brand also favours recycled precious metals, vintage pearls and lab-grown sapphires for greater supply chain visibility. Rather than simply taking inspiration from nature, Bleue Burnham works to protect it.

“All our jewellery is made within a six-mile radius of Harrods,” the designer explains. “It’s a very intricate process which takes a lot of skill and time.” Burnham’s favourite piece in Menswear is The Rose Garden Signet Ring – one of the brand’s bestselling styles – set with lab-created sapphires in an exclusive Harrods green, alongside The Spring Blossom Ring, the largest and most complex style the brand has ever made. “Through having these skills in-house, we are able to spend lots of time on design development,” he continues, “which allows us to bring new perspectives to the jewellery table.”

Tom Wood’s founder and creative director Mona Jensen started out making jewellery as a hobby by herself in the evenings. Now, the brand has over 45 employees working in its Oslo headquarters, as well as spaces in Tokyo, Paris and Barcelona. Inspired by Jensen’s love of architecture and design, Tom Wood offers modern versatile pieces rooted in authentic craftsmanship and credibility. Its latest Umi collection, now available at Harrods, pays homage to the brand’s signature cushion shape – a reimagination of Brutalist forms through a bold, magnified lens.

“In creating jewellery that we love,” says Jensen, “it’s equally important that we feel good about where it comes from and how it’s made.” The brand’s main manufacturers are certified members of the Responsible Jewellery Council, the world’s leading sustainability standard for the industry. Over the past year, Tom Wood has also transitioned to 100% recycled and traceable metals, reducing its emissions by over 90%. As Jensen says: “Our production is only as responsible as our suppliers.”

“Traditional jewellery polishes out all the characteristics and imperfections left by its maker,” explains The Ouze founder Toby Vernon. “I wanted something with more evidence of the human hand.” Inspired by pieces he’d find at vintage markets, Vernon established his brand in 2021 with an ethos that’s slow, considered and local. Each piece is designed and carved in wax at his Brighton studio by either himself or designer Joe Sturgis – their surfaces left beautifully weathered and raw. “We champion British craft practices using local engravers and setters between Brighton and London,” he explains. “We also work with a family-run casting house in London to get our work cast in recycled precious metals.”

In Menswear on the Second Floor at Harrods, you’ll find pieces from The Ouze’s core range and new-season collections. The Hallmark Band, cast from solid recycled gold, is one of the brand’s most popular pieces – and among the first designs Vernon created. Further signatures are the Twin Emerald Heart Signet Ring, individually cut in Brighton using lab-grown emeralds, and an exclusive Pearl Signet Ring in 9kt yellow gold. “We get customers saying they have never worn jewellery before,” explains Vernon, “but after seeing our designs they buy their first piece. I think it’s about showing someone something they didn’t know existed.”
