While high-end jewelry has always been highly sought after, it has also consistently been expensive. Things are quickly changing, however. There are now several companies that are producing luxurious pieces of jewelry without the luxurious price tag.
Luckily enough, many of these companies producing nice, affordable pieces are easy to find online and they are focused on regularly releasing new pieces to add to your collection. Let’s take a look at some of the brands that are changing the jewelry game.
Catbird
Catbird is considered to be an especially unique and trendy brand, but they also have very affordable items. They offer stacking rings that can sell for as low as $50. If you want something truly unique, you could purchase a permanent bracelet from the company.
In order to purchase a permanent bracelet, shoppers must go to one of Catbird’s brick and mortar stores so that the piece can be welded onto their wrists. On their site, Catbird refers to this as zapping and even offers group zapping sessions for parties of five or more.
Mejuri
Mejuri is a startup based in Toronto, Canada that makes pieces from sterling silver, gold vermeil and 14 karat gold. The company produces several different items, including earrings, rings, necklaces, bracelets. Mejuri also has a men’s line which includes stylish wedding bands, necklaces and bracelets.
The Toronto-based company is known for introducing new items each week so the things on the website never grow stale. And one of the most exciting things about Mejuri is the price point. While some items can cost thousands of dollars, the brand also focuses on producing many items which come in at under $150.
Bauble Bar
Bauble Bar, founded in 2010, not only makes jewelry for women. The brand is known for its fun and creative style. There is everything available on their site from fine pieces of jewelry to charms. There is even a custom shop where buyers can create pieces that have special meaning to them.

The brand has partnerships with Disney, Major League Baseball, the National Football League and the NCAA. So if you are looking for a Mickey Mouse bracelet for your kid or a piece that celebrates your alma mater, this is the place for you.
Gorjana
Most shoppers know that if they want to buy some nice looking pieces for less, gold plated jewelry could be a good way to go. The problem is that many companies that create gold plated jewelry don’t offer the most fashion forward pieces. Gorjana, a brand based out of Laguna Beach, California has a solution to that problem.
Gorjana has a wide selection of pieces that are everything from on trend to funky and unique. Best of all, almost everything the company offers comes in at under $100. If you love the style and have a little more money to spend, the company also offers diamond and 14K gold pieces.
Dorsey
Each year during awards season, stars hit the red carpet wearing fantastic pieces of jewelry that are well outside of the price range of the average person. If you want to try to match some of those styles with something a little more affordable, Dorsey has some terrific options, specifically their tennis necklaces.
Dorsey is able to hit that competitive price point by producing their pieces from lab grown diamonds with plated sterling silver or 14K gold. Shoppers at Dorsey fine are able to knock their friends out with beautiful pieces at strong prices.
Ink + Alloy
Just because something is a piece of jewelry doesn’t mean that it needs to be made from gold or inlayed with diamonds. Ink + Alloy, which used glass seed beads and brass, advertises itself as a modern day Bohemian company.
And since Ink + Alloy makes its products out of those kinds of materials, the products come in at an excellent price point. There is nothing in the brand’s jewelry line, which feature incredible pops of color, that sells for more than $108 dollars.
AUrate
AUrate is an American company that does things the right way. First of all, everything the jeweler makes is created onsite in New York City. Secondly, AUrate sources all the materials they use with specific emphasis in following human rights practices while also taking societal and environment factors into consideration.
As you can see from the name, AUrate produces jewelry with a focus on gold. And while some of the brands items can go up to $3,000,, the lowest cost item on the website is only $40. The brand also carries a wide array of products so consumers can opt for something minimalist or statement making.
Heaven Mayhem
There are plenty of women who want to keep up with the latest styles, but there may be something holding them back from doing so. With chunky earrings in fashion, many women aren’t able to participate in the trend because of sensitive earlobes. Thanks to Heaven Mayhem, they now have access to chunky, yet lightweight pieces.
But earrings aren’t all that they make, the brand also offers watches, necklaces, eyewear and brooches. The best part is that the company’s pieces are quite affordable without sacrificing quality, feeling and an intriguing style.
Awe Inspired
Just because a line of jewelry comes at a strong price point doesn’t mean that cool brands won’t become favorites of celebrities. Awe Inspired is a favorite of major stars like Taylor Swift, Halle Berry and Megan Markle. Despite that, most of the company’s necklaces still come in at under $200.
The most well-known of Awe Inspired’s collections is their Goddess line. This line features mythical goddesses like Medusa and Aphrodite. The website even features a quiz so that shoppers can discover which goddess fits them best.
