We dare you to make it through this list without adding something to your cart.
Cloth & Cord
The jewelry brand specializes in creating and selling jaw-dropping art influenced by African and African-American rich heritage.
For instance, this stylish Mali Print Off-The-Shoulder Corded Necklace ($88) makes for the perfect accessory for your prom outfit, wedding guest look, or even days when you want to stand out from the crowd.
It’s available at cloth&cord.com or Amazon. The price remains the same on both ends.
ByChari
ByChari prides itself on being more than a jewelry line. It’s a lifestyle, a way for Black women to share and create their stories. It’s an extension and expression of our style and personality and a way of celebrating the defining moments and the simple beauty of everyday life.
And with a nod from Michelle Obama, Aimee Song, and other celebrities, it’s easy to see why this Black-owned jewelry brand deserves a spot on your accessories rack.
We especially love their custom-made Sade Hoops ($50-$100), Hanna rings ($50) and the jaw-dropping Kira necklace.
