Just like fashion, jewellery goes through cyclical trends. Like pearls, which are also having a moment right now, yellow gold jewellery was once considered staid, stuffy and worn only by older generations. White and rose gold, you see, were considered cooler, fresher and far more youthful.

Well, no more. Perhaps it’s the effect of the cost of living crisis: if you’re going to invest in pricey jewellery during a downturn then why not make it a piece whose intrinsic value is linked to currency? Perhaps it’s changes in the way gold jewellery is now made, with the brassy yellow golds of old replaced with a lighter, more flattering hue. Whatever the cause, there’s never been a better time to bolster your collection with classic and contemporary gold jewellery.

From heirloom pieces to pass down the generations to fun, wallet-friendly designs ideal for summer holidays (gold jewellery looks great with a tan), here are the best pieces to buy now.
