How not to fall into kitsch, or jewelry for men

Jewelry, or body ornaments of all kinds, have long accompanied man and are an attractive addition to clothing. Over the centuries, jewelry has changed its style and was once more characteristic of women, once of both sexes. Also, depending on the geographical, cultural or religious area, jewelry had different prevalence, meaning and symbolism. Nowadays, jewelry is again no longer associated only with women's ornaments. In addition to the watch, cufflinks and wedding ring, gentlemen also appreciate other pieces, such as bracelets, signet rings and chains. However, choosing the right jewelry is not always an easy task. We suggest how to choose men's jewelry so as not to fall into kitsch and exaggeration.

What are the types of men's jewelry?

When deciding on everyday jewelry, it is best to start with a subdued leather, wooden or silver bracelet. It is often combined on the same hand as the watch. Do not overdo the number of pieces. Wanting to maintain moderation and elegance, it is not worth additionally placing rings or signets on the same hand. Bracelets can be boldly personalized with engraving or special embossing on the material from which it is made. Elegant accessories are also chains. Choosing the right pendant, we can emphasize our character, highlight a hobby or emphasize religious affiliation. When deciding on a particular symbolism, it is worth taking into account what the history and meaning of the item is. It is easy to be mistakenly pigeonholed and misjudged by choosing a symbol without thinking. Pentagrams, skulls, Masonic symbols, symbols reserved for specific religions - here it is worth considering how we will be perceived using this type of jewelry.

What does men's jewelry highlight?

It is important to remember that jewelry should emphasize our style and highlight our character traits. Until recently, rings, bracelets, earrings or necklaces, worn by men, were associated with specific musical subcultures. Depending on whether one was a rock star or a famous rapper, one emphasized one's uniqueness with jewelry - often controversial. Today, when choosing jewelry, each of us should consider whether we want to emphasize our elegance or shock our audience.

How to choose jewelry for a man for a gift?

If we do not know the recipient well, we can choose jewelry that is elegant and simple. A good choice will be a bracelet or chain. If we know the person's hobbies and interests, we can diversify the jewelry in an interesting way, selecting pendants with appropriate symbolism. For example, an apt gift for sports fans will be a collection of Schiele sports jewelry. Leather bracelets with embossed inscriptions, pendants in the shape of kettlebells or dumbbells, will emphasize a man's interest in taking care of his fitness and body, without an unnecessary, kitschy association with a "golden shackle". Jewelry from the sports collection to emphasize the strength, power and energy of the person wearing it.
