Top 32 Brands of Men's Jewelry (Illustrated)
Jewelry for Men
The popularity of jewelry among men has seen its share of highs and lows throughout history; it’s fair to say that today, most men know very little about jewelry, but that is changing.
In recent years, more men have begun adorning themselves with jewelry in an effort to reconnect with their creative, aesthetic side. As you will discover, men’s jewelry today is styled (and often ornately) into artworks with some historical, natural, sociocultural, or ethnocentric reference.
This guide is your introduction to some of the brands and designers of men’s jewelry. I've focused on designers who specialize in jewelry—fashion houses (e.g. Gucci, D&G, etc.) who produce jewelry only as part of a large line of accessories were intentionally excluded.
Armenta
Armenta is a line of hand-crafted jewelry designed by Spanish jeweler Emily Armenta. Emily draws her inspiration from the Spanish poet Lorca and early Spanish and Moorish architecture. Armenta offers some of the most unique men’s jewelry you will find; it’s old world, romantic, enchanting, and looks like something you might find in a sunken treasure chest.

Interesting article and I can see you put a lot of time into this one. Might help to reduce the number of poll selections - perhaps provide a handful of choices?
I really like your hubs!
