The lure of fine jewelry is inescapable and, despite the indigestible price tag, accessories girlies will die on that hill—covered in a barrage of 14k gold hoops, pearl necklaces, and gemstone rings. But the exclusivity associated with occasion-only wear has begun to shift and broaden in scope thanks to some of the best and most affordable jewelry brands.

Made with precious metals or encrusted with jewels, fine jewelry is still the most expensive form of bauble. However, the scale of quality and price is much less black and white and more of a continuum, comprised of fashion jewelry through top-tier bling. Aside from boasting a pretty solid social following or proven fanbase, any affordable jewelry brand worth its salt will focus on high-quality and ethically sourced materials. Fashion jewelry is typically gold-plated over materials like brass, copper, or aluminum. And demi-fine jewelry—a sort of middle-ground option— usually features a sterling silver base and gold plating.

To save you some screen time, we’ve compiled our favorite affordable jewelry brands pavé-ing the way—including woman-owned and sustainable labels that are making an important mark on the industry. Shop our favorite brands and products below, from minimalist chains to modern studs that fall in line with all of 2023’s best jewelry trends.
