1. Lab-Grown Diamonds & Gemstones
Lab-grown diamonds may have been around for a while but they finally claimed our attention thanks to trendsetters like Gigi Hadid, Hailey Bieber, Rihanna and more such A-listers. The movement can be fully expected to reign supreme in 2025 and beyond.
Jewelry industry trends and experts estimate the market share of lab-grown diamonds to skyrocket to $37.32 billion by 2028. Therefore, if you’ve been dreaming of bigger-carat diamonds and gemstones that are drop-dead sparkly, now’s the time to get ‘em.

2. Customization
The era of wearing custom jewelry is far from over, and it’s easy to see why. Customized jewelry is not only unique-looking but also adds an individualistic flair to your look. These are baubles imbued in sentiment, rich in meaning and tell your story your way. Now, who wouldn’t want that?
The best part is that there are several ways to sport this trend. You can follow Hailey Bieber’s footsteps and shop initial jewelry for women if you gravitate towards a more minimal aesthetic. Or pick a custom name necklace if you’re ready for your main character moment like Kim K and Jennifer Lopez. P.S. We’ll even let you add charms to your name necklace if you want to take it a notch up.
And if you really want to get creative with your baubles to truly express your style, we’ll let you have your way with them. Yes! You can custom create your rings from scratch and design them just how you want with our Create With Angara feature. It’s all up to YOU. (Get it?)

3. Statement-Making Sparkle
Truth be told: We weren’t quite ready to give up on the fall jewelry trend of ‘more is more,’ and thankfully we won’t have to ‘cause it’s here to stay.
However, this time it’s not just about accessorizing; it’s about wearing jewelry pieces that define your entire look and make a fashion statement on their own. Think attention-demanding pieces that help you express yourself boldly without really saying a word—and maybe even have your runway moment IRL. We’re talking jewelry with innovative designs, shapes, colors and textures which ultimately translates to statement necklaces, vibrant drop earrings or these citrine dangle earrings, bold cocktail rings (like the recent opal ring you saw on Taylor Swift).
P.S. You must shop our artisanal jewelry collection if you want to play around with unusual gemstone cuts and shapes.

5. Functional & Contemporary Styles
While the notion of the “quiet luxury” aesthetic has been very much rooted in minimalism, you’re about to see timeless functional jewelry take center stage in everyday wardrobes.
These pieces will be versatile and feel super contemporary at the same time. Think solitaire pendants, elegant rings and multi-wear earrings. You can also explore more of this trend by opting for east-west pendants, bar necklaces and chain bracelets with colored gemstones for an updated, unique twist.

6. Color Play
If you ask us, colors don’t just spark joy; they speak to the soul. They capture everything you want to say while bringing out the best in you. And we’re excited to see that the world is embracing this trend with colored gemstones increasingly.
So, how should you go about it? You can incorporate classic and all-time favorite gems like emerald, ruby, blue sapphire and aquamarine. Or experiment with recently trending stones like amethyst, tanzanite, citrine, garnet and tourmaline.
Hot tip: If you want something that subtly nods to the Pantone Color of the Year 2025, go for morganite jewelry that closely resembles the shade ‘Peach Fuzz’.
