Keeping a capsule collection of jewellery is a great way to downscale on spending and to appreciate what you have. A timeless piece of jewellery is often versatile and works from day to night, from black tie to casual.
When you’re considering building a capsule collection that will last you a lifetime, it’s important to consider quality. While it’s always nice to find a bargain set of stack rings for R100, if you’re looking for timeless jewellery that won’t tarnish, it will cost you more.
Your capsule collection should consist of investment pieces that you admire and appreciate. It’s rewarding to spoil yourself (and be spoiled) with a piece of jewellery that you could eventually pass down to your children.
If you’re interested in building a capsule collection of your own, here are 9 pieces of jewellery that are worth investing in.
