What Makes Jewelry Timeless?
In This Blog
Trends are always changing, but some styles withstand the test of time. When jewelry is timeless, it is always in style. Timeless jewelry pieces are effortlessly classic, offering great looks no matter the decade.
What exactly makes a piece of jewelry timeless? Is it the way it’s made? Is it the type of diamonds or gemstones it includes? Is it the shape of the jewelry? There isn’t one exact factor that makes a piece of jewelry evergreen, but timeless jewelry styles often share unique qualities that set them apart as truly enduring.
Qualities of Timeless Jewelry
To be timeless, pieces of classic jewelry don’t need to be expensive, they just need to bring the look and construction that allow for frequent easy wear. Timeless jewelry is always:
- Well-made with expert construction
- Crafted in classic designs
- Easily coordinated with other jewelry
- Made from high-quality, durable materials
- Simple to maintain, with authentic gemstones
- Effortlessly coordinated with a variety of outfits
When choosing timeless styles, you’ll want to focus on items made from real precious metals with sturdy designs. Because timeless heirloom jewelry is expected to last for generations of wear, it’s best to avoid gold plated jewelry and instead focus on fine jewelry made from solid metals and real gemstones.
