Britt’s Pick: Sheryl Lowe’s Antique Italian Coral Bracelets

By Brittany Siminitz | August 26, 2025

Two things are top of mind for many jewelry consumers of late: orange (thanks, Taylor!) and vintage (particularly Gen Z, per this Pinterest report). Sheryl Lowe’s richly colored bracelets satisfy both interests.

Antique Italian coral is joined by diamond rondelles and African trade beads in bracelets that evoke the natural texture of the ocean, refined with a designer’s touch. They’re casual and cool, yet worldly and in-the-know—the kind of piece that conveys the spirit of travel, with laid-back style to spare.

The bracelets combine several of this summer’s popular aesthetic themes, from that Euro/Mediterranean style everyone was aiming for to the recycling or repurposing of materials, as conscious consumers demand.

Not to mention the bohemian luxury of it all. That style has transcended festivals this summer and breached the mainstream consumer crowd, putting beaded bracelets and layerable necklaces, charms, and stackable bangles on the young and hip and the seasoned and chic alike.

One might picture wearing jewels like these Sheryl Lowe bracelets during a sun-soaked Amalfi Coast (or California) vacation—and that sounds fabulous. But keep in mind, orange will remain strong throughout autumn, so we could easily have a holiday best seller on our hands (er, wrists) here. The coral bracelets’ artisanal, talismanic style, quality of storytelling, and major trend markers make them super giftable, and a colorful departure from the gold pieces that are sure to be in demand (per usual) this year.

Plus, their easygoing style makes them pretty versatile for a number of different consumer tastes: They could be mixed up within a stack of gold and diamonds just as well as they’d pair nicely with other beaded bracelets. Orange you glad these exist? (Sorry, had to.)
