The Return of '90s Jewelry -- And Why Everyone is Obsessed

If you have been watching the red carpets, the runway or even your For You page lately, you've likely noticed something: the '90s are back -- and bolder then ever. 

But it's not just crop-tops and low-rise jeans making a comeback. The jewelry of the '90s- gold domes, chunky cuffs, two-tone everything is being rediscovered by a whole new generation. And we couldn't be more excited. 

 

 

What Defines 1990s Jewelry? 

In a word: attitude. 

The 1990s were about confidence, luxury and "power dressing", even when dressed down. Jewelry was worn to stand out not fade into the background. Here's what to look for: 

  • Bold gold: think wide hoops, ribbed huggies and collarbone-hugging chains. 
  • High-shine finishes: No matte textures --  polished was power. 
  • Two-tone everything: Yellow and white metals mixed on rings, bracelets and watches. 
  • Logo love: Think Cartier, Gucci and Bulgari -- when brand marks were worn with pride. 
  • Sculptural Shapes: Domes rings, twisted bangles, chunky links. 

 

 

Why It's the Perfect Time to Shop Vintage?


What makes '90s jewelry so desirable today is its quality and timelessness. Much of what was still made with fine materials, thoughtful craftsmanship, and real weight. Unlike fast fashion, these are pieces build to last and age beautifully. 

At Louise Row, we are seeing a spike in demand for : 

  • David Yurman cable bracelets
  • Vintage and current Bulgari Tubogas rings, bracelets and bracelets
  • Classic Cartier trinity rings, and Tank Francaise watches
  • Ribbed dome rings and yellow or two-one gold
  • Italian-made chains with a bold '90s presence

 

Style It Like the Icons

Whether you're pairing a gold bracelet with a white tee, or stacking vintage rings with your modern pieces, '90s jewelry elevates the everyday. 

Style tip: Mix metals with intention. A vintage two-tone watch paired with layered gold and silver chains looks effortlessly current. 

 

Thinking of Letting Go?

If you have bold gold, dome rings, or signature '90s designer pieces tucked away, now is the perfect time. These styles are back in demand, and your once-loved pieces could be someone else's new favorite.  Contact us at hello@louiserow.com for more information!
