Harris Reed, the fashion designer, reveals the most cherished pieces of jewellery shared by celebrities.
Jewellery is much more than a fashion accessory. For many, it holds deep personal value, representing love, milestones, and significant life moments. These precious items can be passed down through generations, each piece carrying with it stories and memories that transcend time. Whether worn on special occasions or displayed as family heirlooms, jewellery has the unique power to remind us of where we’ve been and the people who have shaped our lives.
In an exclusive interview, we spoke to some of the most influential figures in the fashion and jewellery world, including actress Amy Jackson, designer Harris Reed, and influencer Nikki Lily, to learn about their most prized jewellery pieces and the personal stories that make them so special
For Amy Jackson, one of her most cherished pieces is a stunning diamond Bvlgari Serpenti Viper bracelet. The bracelet was a surprise gift from her bridesmaids on her wedding day, and the moment she received it remains one of the most meaningful in her life. “It instantly became a treasure,” Amy shared. “I wear it on significant occasions like anniversaries, birthdays, and events that I want to remember forever.” She explained that the bracelet not only makes her feel loved and cherished but also symbolizes the bonds of friendship and the unforgettable memories she shares with those closest to her. To Amy, the bracelet is more than just a beautiful piece of craftsmanship; it is a constant reminder of the love and support she has in her life.
Designer Harris Reed, known for his avant-garde creations, opened up about his most treasured piece of jewellery—the "In Good Hands" necklace he created with Missoma. This necklace, designed to represent the concept of being there for someone and lending a helping hand, is a source of pride for Harris. “It’s a reflection of how I want to be as a person—someone who supports and uplifts others,” Harris explained. He also spoke fondly of a scarab beetle necklace by Lauren Harwell Godfrey, another piece he holds dear. "It’s made up of diamonds, and it reminds me of ancient power and beauty," Harris said. Wearing the necklace makes him feel like Cleopatra—strong, powerful, and confident.
Nikki Lily’s special piece of jewellery is Missoma’s Baya Hoops, a gift that holds sentimental value because they were inspired by her mother’s love for bold hoops. Nikki recalled watching her mother prepare for evenings out, the scent of her perfume in the air and the way she styled her hair and jewellery. "She always said she felt complete when she put on her hoops," Nikki shared. “It made her feel confident and glamorous.” To Nikki, jewellery has a transformative power. It’s not just about accessorizing an outfit—it’s about how jewellery can change the way we feel, making us feel more confident and empowered.
These stories highlight the powerful emotional connection people have with their jewellery. For these industry insiders, their most treasured pieces are much more than beautiful adornments—they are symbols of love, support, and memories that shape their lives. Jewellery, in this sense, becomes a reflection of who we are and the people and experiences that matter most to us.
