by Reema Farooqui

JCK 2025 did more than just turn heads! It set the tone for all the bold, radiant and “happening” jewellery looks for summer!

JCK Las Vegas, which takes place just before the start of summer, is the show where the pulse of the jewellery industry is most felt. What’s more, if you want to be trendsetter, then this is the show to follow!

Last year, the show brought us innovative and unique diamond cuts and mixed metals, with white metals coming off strong. This year, at JCK 2025, the jewellery trends were just as unforgettable and outstanding! From celestial symbols to unabashed colour, the JCK show floors were brimming with stand-out jewellery pieces, with styles that will dominate the months ahead.

JCK 2025 Jewellery Trends

Here are the standout trends that lit up Las Vegas and will shape the summer styling of 2025.

Golden Summer

Despite skyrocketing prices, gold jewellery shone bright and beautiful on the JCK Las Vegas show floors. Yellow gold pieces took centre stage as one of the standout JCK 2025 jewellery trends. From striking gold pendants and chains to finely worked statement earrings, the gleam of gold was everywhere. Many designers showcased textured gold, brushed finishes and hammered details. The look was warm and luxurious, perfect for a sun-drenched summer.

Medallions Galore

A key motif across many fine jewellery collections was large, coin-like medallions. Worn on chunky chains and stacked with other pendants of varying sizes, this jewellery trend evokes a vintage vibe with a distinctly contemporary feel. While some medallions featured timeless symbols such as the evil eye, with its talismanic appeal, others showcased very fine and detailed gold guilloché, or a luxuriant pavé of coloured gems, which brought the pieces alive with every movement of light.

Colour and More Colour

Designers went all in on colour this year. From coloured gems, coloured hardstone inlays to coloured enamel and fancy coloured diamonds, the hues were confident and joyful. Bright enamel details in complementary or contrasting colours formed attractive halos around coloured gemstone cabochons. Fancy coloured diamonds sparkled in soft shades like powder pink, buttercup yellow, champagne gold and soft blue. Even black diamonds made an appearance, lending a strong style statement to many jewellery pieces.

Sun, Moon, Stars

Celestial motifs have always enchanted jewellery lovers, but this year at JCK, they were not only ubiquitous, they were powerfully  alluring. Crescent moons, stars, sunbursts and shooting stars adorned bracelets, medallions, pendants, and earrings. Blending mysticism mixed with vintage Bohemian flair, these jewellery pieces whispered of summer nights under a cloudless, starry sky.

Snake Charm

This was definitely the year of the snake at JCK! Serpents slithered stylishly across rings, earrings, and necklaces, their scales brought to life in textured gold and brilliant-cut diamonds. At the JCK show, the snake motif made many collections stand-out with its timeless yet slightly edgy feel. Some designers kept the look sleek and minimal, while others went ornate, with sinuous silhouettes and intricately crafted scales.

Diamond Dazzle

Diamonds lit up the show floors, both at the JCK show and at Luxury by JCK, with exuberant energy and versatile verve. From delicate pavé pieces to bold geometric designs, diamonds were everywhere. Jewellery designers embraced both minimal and maximal styles. From large, over 10ct natural diamond rings and fancy-coloured diamonds set in earrings and pendants, to fancy cuts and mixed shapes, the pieces were pure luxury and delightfully opulent. The overall vibe was sparkly-chic adding shimmer to both fine and high jewellery collections.
