What are the different types of statement jewelry?

Wondering what are the different types of statement jewelry out there? We've got some pointers for you right here:

Statement necklaces

A great place to start exploring eye-catching, directional looks is with statement necklaces. Just adding a chunky pendant with a stand-out feature to a regular chain draws attention to your neckline and makes a statement, especially if it features sparkling details, a meaningful symbol or a colorful stone.

If you're going for next-level layers, think about wearing different lengths and thicknesses of necklaces. Start close to your neck with the shortest layer and add a couple more, such as styles featuring the unique Pandora O Pendant, which can be styled with charms that add dimension. To create contrast, you can also add a chunky necklace, such as our Pandora ME chain link necklace, to tie the whole look together.

Statement bracelets

If you love arm candy, think about creating a statement look with bold, stand-out stacks of statement bracelets. To style the ultimate arm stack, start with a fully loaded charm bracelet featuring bold charms that tell your story. Next, add bangles, tennis bracelets or other bracelet styles to create contrasting proportions and keep it looking unexpected.

Statement earrings

Framing your face with statement earrings is a great option for everyday and special occasion looks. Did you know that you can add charms to your hoops, too? With our snake chain styles in different sizes and metal finishes, you can accessorize your earrings with your favourite charms and wear them right next to your face. If you have multiple piercings, add pavé hoops or mix and match with drop earrings for an asymmetrical take.

Statement rings

Rings are one of the most versatile jewelry categories because they're so easy to style. Stacking up statement rings makes for an easy way to start playing with bold jewelry looks. Start with your favorite piece and keep adding sparkling solitaire rings, halo styles and chunky triple band styles until it feels just right.
