Brown Jewelry: How to Wear the Colour of the Season
Brown is everywhere this autumn: in coats, boots, bags and so also in jewelry. More and more people are searching for brown earrings online, and it's no surprise. Brown looks warm with gold, is softer than black and goes with almost every autumn outfit. Below you'll see which brown jewelry to wear now and how to style it.
The short answer
This is the brown jewelry of the season:
- Tiger's eye: warm brown with a golden sheen that moves with the light.
- Tortoiseshell look: mottled brown, vintage and playful.
- Amber colour: honey brown that glows next to gold.
- Deep brown natural stone: like mahogany obsidian, calm and chic.
- Brown resin: a cheerful statement bangle with a glossy, translucent look.
1. Tiger's eye
Tiger's eye is the classic among brown stones. The stripes in the stone catch the light, so it looks a little different with every move. Small studs are an easy start, a statement ring is for those who dare. Read more about this stone in tiger's eye meaning.
2. Tortoiseshell look
The tortoiseshell look is back: mottled brown and caramel with a vintage feel. It works best in a piece that already stands out, like a flower.

Amber-coloured jewelry has a warm honey tone that glows next to gold. A bead necklace is a real eye-catcher, small studs keep it subtle.
4. Deep brown natural stone
Natural stone in deep brown, like mahogany obsidian, looks calm and chic. Every stone is unique, so no two pieces are exactly alike.
5. Brown resin
For a playful way to wear brown: a resin bangle with a wavy shape and a glossy, translucent look.
