Spring into extraordinary: Discover the finest designer jewellery

Update your designer jewellery collection with these exquisitely stylish pieces from Kennedy.

Spring is a time of renewal – to hit refresh and embrace change. And that applies to your designer jewellery collection, too. Of course, there will always be a place for your classic pieces, the ones you come back to time and time again. But by adding in a few new creations, you’ll breathe new life into your forever favourites and add extra interest to your wardrobe. Not sure where to get started? Here are some new and noteworthy pieces at Kennedy.

The tennis necklace, reimagined

Tennis necklaces are a time-honoured staple; featuring a line of side-by-side diamonds and designed to sit on the collarbone, they’re simple, subtle and eternally stylish. But this season, the understated beauty of a tennis necklace has been elevated, with Graff’s Pavé Butterfly Diamond Petite Necklace offering a playful take on the adored piece. Boasting a white gold chain embellished with pavé diamond butterflies (a total of 0.47ct), it’s sweet and sophisticated in equal measure. And the best bit is, it looks stunning either worn alone or layered with your classic tennis necklace.

A modern approach to pearls

Pearl jewellery is trending in a big way for spring, but not necessarily in the way you know. The latest styles combine the timeless beauty and grace of the gemstone with contemporary designs for a look that’s sophisticated yet subversive. Leave it to pearl powerhouse Mikimoto to have the trend covered. Inspired by Morse Code, the brand’s M Code Akoya Cultured Pearl 18K Yellow Gold Earrings mix 7mm Akoya pearls cultured in Japan with a chunky yellow gold chain. The result: the perfect tough-luxe piece to help ground your prettiest floral spring dresses.

Pretty in pink

Thanks to the ongoing popularity of Barbiecore, hyper-pink pieces are continuing to dominate this spring – and there couldn’t be a better colour to embrace the joyful, reinvigorated mood of the new season. Lean into the feminine shade with Suzanne Kalan’s 18K Rose Gold Audrey Pink Sapphire Eternity Band. Pink sapphire baguettes measuring 4.70ct in total are peppered with round white diamonds in the brand’s signature Fireworks setting, for a piece that’s exploding with exceptional artistry and true wow factor.

Everyday luxury

While bright, colourful jewellery is always big for spring, there’s still something to be said for pared-back pieces. Think of gold jewellery and diamond bangles, which are easy to wear and add an effortless elegance to any outfit. It’s a low-key approach to luxury, and there’s no better example than Roberto Coin’s Love in Verona Yellow Gold Diamond Bangle. Inspired by the city of Verona – a symbol of love thanks to Romeo and Juliet – the yellow gold band is punctuated with 20 diamonds and two precious rubies, creating a minimal and contemporary piece that you’re sure to love forever.

Butterfly effect

Blame it on ’90s nostalgia, but our love for a butterfly motif knows no bounds this season – and it’s nothing like the jewellery (or hair clips) you wore at school. Case in point: Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring Amethyst Butterfly Bracelet. The yellow gold bracelet is adorned with yellow citrine, amethyst, emerald and freshwater pearl, twisting around the arm into a chic butterfly. Just like a real butterfly, it’ll bring a transformative touch to everything, from jeans and a tee to a glitzy cocktail dress.
