Boxed and ready to give: our gift sets pair a chain with a matching bracelet or pendant.

Below we'll cover the best jewellery gifts for men at a glance, gifts for the man who's new to jewellery, the man who knows his style and the collector, what to choose if you want it to mean something, gifts for every occasion and budget, and what to do if you still can't decide.

What's the Best Jewellery Gift for a Man?

The best jewellery gift is the one he puts on the next morning without thinking about it. The quick version:

For the Guy Who's New to Jewellery

If he's never worn jewellery, don't worry, everyone starts somewhere. Jewellery is the finishing touch to any man's wardrobe, even if he hasn't realised it yet. Think of the minimalist pieces below like his favourite white T-shirt: clean, versatile and made for everyday wear. Once he tries them, he'll wonder how he ever went without them.

Clean, simple pieces are the easiest place to start.

Featured gift: Classic Cuff Bracelet

With a 5mm band and a polished finish, this cuff is made for all-day, everyday wear. It's adjustable for an easy fit and comes in 18K gold and silver.

A band ring is the first ring most men will actually wear.

Featured gift: Band Ring Set

The Flat Band Ring Set pairs a 5mm and a 3mm band, designed to be worn together on the same finger, with scratch-resistant plating, a polished comfort interior and a lifetime guarantee.

A slim chain is the other easy first piece. The Connell Chain is our bestseller for a reason: at 2mm it sits under a shirt collar and works over a T-shirt. More everyday pieces in our Minimals collection.

For the Guy Who Knows His Style

If he's already into jewellery or has dabbled in the past, chances are he's ready for something fresh. Whether he's had the same go-to pieces for a while or likes to mix things up, one of our bestsellers is a reliable way to hit the mark. Here are a couple of styles that are likely to be at the top of his wish list.

For the man who knows his style, start with our bestsellers.

Featured gift: Miami Cuban Chain

The Miami Cuban commands attention like no other. Its tight 4mm links are built to handle anything, from the shower to a hot summer, and it's CRAFTD to last. Available in 18K gold and silver.

The Clover Sovereign Ring in 18K gold.

Featured gift: Clover Sovereign Ring

The 18K gold Sovereign Ring shows off our signature clover detailing and micropavé-inspired edges. It pairs with any piece from our Legacy Collection and is finished with the CRAFTD logo.

For the Jewellery Enthusiast

If he's already well into jewellery, you're in luck. It gives you the freedom to go for something unique, something that will stand out in his collection. He's likely built a personal style already, so choosing a piece you know he doesn't have is a great way to show how well you know him.

Below is one of our most exclusive styles. This necklace is a fan favourite, and for good reason: it's a piece he won't find anywhere else. Heads up, though: it tends to go fast in gifting season, so if you see it in stock, don't wait to wrap it up.

The Green Gemstone Necklace: gold clovers and green stones.

Featured gift: Green Gemstone Necklace

Our most sought-after gemstone necklace has 18K gold clovers and radiant-cut green gemstones, traditionally associated with abundance and positivity. Each stone sits in a secure bezel for colour and durability, on coupled links for a seamless fit.

Gemstones: a piece he won't already own.

For more one-of-a-kind pieces, explore our gemstones or our sterling silver range.

For the Man Who'd Value Something Meaningful

Some men don't care about trends; they care about what a piece stands for. For them, a pendant with a symbol that fits is the gift. A compass for the man who finds his own way, a St. Christopher for the man who looks out for everyone, a North Star for the man with a big goal.

The Meaningful Pendant Gift Set comes with a Meaning Card, so the symbol's story arrives with it. For six pendants and what each one says about him, read our guide to thoughtful jewellery gifts for men.

Still Not Sure What He'll Love?

Still on the fence about where he is with jewellery? No worries, we've got you covered. Sometimes the best gift is the one he picks out himself. That's where the CRAFTD gift card comes in. You choose the value, and he gets to choose the piece.

FAQs

What is a good jewellery gift for a man?

It depends on where he is with jewellery. If he's never worn any, a slim chain, a cuff or a band ring. If he knows his style, one of our bestsellers, like the Miami Cuban. If he's already a collector, something he won't have, like a gemstone necklace. A gift set covers all three.

Do men like receiving jewellery as a gift?

Most do, especially when it's something they'd wear every day. A chain or a ring becomes part of what he wears, which is why jewellery tends to be remembered long after other gifts.

What do you buy a man who has everything?

Something he'll wear rather than something he'll store. A pendant with a meaning that fits him, a signet ring, or the piece that completes what he already wears, like the bracelet that matches his chain.

What's a good first piece of jewellery for a man?

A slim chain like the Connell, a cuff bracelet or a band ring. Each is simple enough to wear with anything, so he doesn't have to change how he dresses to wear it.

Are gift sets a good idea?

Yes, if he doesn't own much jewellery yet. A set gives him a finished look in one box. If he already wears a chain, a single piece that adds to it often means more.

What if I don't know his size?

Our guide to gifting men's jewellery explains how to find his chain, ring and bracelet size without asking him, and you can exchange within our returns window if it doesn't fit.

Where to Go From Here

Start with the man, not the product. Work out which of the three he is, choose one piece he'll wear every day, and let it do the rest.
