In the realm of fashion, the glistening charm of gold isn’t exclusive to women. More men are now embracing this precious metal, weaving it into their daily attire with class and subtlety.
Let’s explore five ways men can accessorise gold jewellery, bringing out their personality, confidence, and innate sense of style.
1. Subtlety is Key
The first rule of thumb is subtlety for men looking to incorporate gold into their outfit. A style tip? You don’t need to drape yourself in gold to make a statement – choose pieces that complement your attire and personal style without overshadowing it.
For instance, the power of a simple gold necklace like the SK 916 Glissade Rounded Gold Chain cannot be underestimated when worn with a crisp white shirt or a black tee. The shine of the gold jewellery not only contrasts beautifully with your outfit, but also adds a layer of sophistication.
2. Layer Smartly
Men might shy away from layering accessories, fearing it might appear too flashy. However, when done correctly, layering gold jewellery can actually enhance the overall look, striking a balance between sophisticated and edgy.
Firstly, be aware of the occasion. Opt for two layers for formal events, but feel free to experiment with three or even more layers in more relaxed settings.
Rings for men have made a significant comeback. Consider stacking two to three stylish gold rings on one finger for a modern approach. Play with textures and widths — maybe a thin Lucky Ingot 999 Pure Gold Ring stacked with a chunkier SK 916 Prosperous Abacus Gold Ring, or a smooth SK 916 Beveled Edge Gold Ring paired with a band like the SK 916 Monkey King Crown Gold Ring with a unique design.
Prefer gold bracelets instead? Opt for different chain lengths and jewellery designs. For instance, the sleek SK 916 Clover Coin Medley Gold Bracelet can be paired with the Fortune Bag 999 Pure Gold Rope Bracelet. The contrast will create a focal point without appearing too cluttered.
3. Personalise Your Pieces
Embrace your individuality by personalising your jewellery, giving a unique twist to any outfit. Tailor your necklace accessory to tell your tale with the Alphabet A-Z 999 Pure Gold Pendant. Whether it’s the initial of your name or a letter that holds a special meaning, this pendant makes it personal.
Note that the neckline of your outfit plays a crucial role in styling your jewellery. A simple tip is that men’s v-necks offer more room and accommodate longer chains, while crewnecks are best paired with shorter chains that sit closer to the collarbone.
For bracelets, choose different charms and use the Charm Builder to craft a bespoke piece that is a silent narrative of your journey, eloquently expressed in the timeless language of gold.
Alternatively, wear Pixiu bracelets to channel the energies of prosperity and protection. These bracelets, steeped in Chinese mythology, act as talismans, attracting wealth and warding off negative forces.
There are many styles to choose from, including the Pixiu 999 Pure Gold Rope Bracelet for the sporty man and the 999 Pure Gold Divine Dragon Blue Tiger Eye Bracelet for the working individual. Stack them up for double the protection!

4. Consider Gemstones
Who says gemstones are only for women? Men’s stylish gold rings featuring stones like sapphire or even lab grown diamonds offer an added dimension and can elevate the entire look. Whether it’s a subtle inlay like the Momento My One True Love Wedding Band or a bold centrepiece like the Octagon Outline Galaxy Sapphire Ring, gemstones infuse colour and character into your jewellery accessories.
5. Thoughtfully Mix Different Metals
Gold is incredibly versatile and blends well with other metals. Don’t be afraid to wear a silver pendant alongside a yellow gold ring like the Whirl Abacus Diamond Ring or white gold like the Dulce 14k White Gold Loca Ring. The contrast can be visually striking, offering a multi-dimensional appeal to your style.
But why limit yourself to one finger? A tip is to spread your jewellery out. Wear a statement band on your index finger, a family signet on your pinky, and a stylish gold band on the ring finger. This not only distributes the visual weight, but also allows each metal to shine individually.
