"Truly one of the greatest predicaments of womanhood is having to decide between affordability or longevity while shopping for jewelry. If a piece is super affordable, there’s a solid chance it will easily tarnish, break, or you’ll hate it in a couple of months due to falling victim to a micro-trend (don’t worry, we’ve all been there). On the flip side, spending a pretty penny on a high-quality investment piece isn’t always feasible.
This is a dilemma so many of us understand all too well, so whenever we do find a brand that gives us long-lasting pieces that don’t make us wince as we check our bank statement, you better believe our credit cards are out, our carts are full, and we’re texting links to all the women in our lives like it’s our civic duty. So after some dedicated searching, we’re here to declare that GLDN is absolutely that unicorn of a brand we’ve been looking for.
GLDN offers affordable yet high-quality jewelry that hits the mark when it comes to chic and timeless pieces that are perfect for anyone’s style and aesthetic. And on top of that, over 90% of their products are completely handmade and hypoallergenic, making them the best thoughtful gift suited for literally anybody, from your friends to your moms to yourself. Sure, maybe a mom won’t totally understand that their pieces are serving us Sofia Richie cool-girl realness, but she will see them as stylish and chic pieces that effortlessly elevate her look. No matter who you find yourself shopping for, we picked out some of our favorite pieces from GLDN that both you and your bank account will love:
Earrings
Hot take: A look is never complete without a good pair of earrings, whether it’s your simple everyday stud or a hoop that’s more of a statement. GLDN has so many options for every kind of earring you can think of, so narrowing it down to only a handful of our faves was far from easy. Nevertheless, we prevailed, so here are just a few that caught our eye:

Why wear one pair of earrings when you can wear three? This stacking set comes with pearl studs, gemstone studs, and your choice of hearts, blossoms, or moon and stars.
