While some brands follow trends, John Hardy creates them. Founded fifty years ago in the heart of Bali, John Hardy was built on a simple yet profound belief: jewelry should be more than just an accessory—it should tell a story. Every piece is handcrafted with passion, infused with heritage and inspired by adventure. Over the decades, the brand has remained true to its artisan roots while evolving with the modern world, making each creation a bridge between tradition and innovation. This year, as the brand marks its 50th anniversary, it reintroduces two of its most defining collections—the Icon 50 and Spear 50—offering a contemporary reimagining of its most beloved styles.
<h2>Icon 50</h2>
<figure id="attachment_108868" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-108868" style="width: 792px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-108868" src="https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/jk.jpg" alt="" width="792" height="1141" srcset="https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/jk.jpg 792w, https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/jk-208x300.jpg 208w, https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/jk-711x1024.jpg 711w, https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/jk-768x1106.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-108868" class="wp-caption-text">A bracelet, ring and necklace from the Icon 50 collection</figcaption></figure>
At the heart of John Hardy’s identity lies the Icon Chain—a masterful display of artisan craftsmanship that has become synonymous with the brand. Every piece is cast, woven and finished entirely by hand, distilling the intricate art of weaving into a streamlined and elegant form. Meticulously kneaded and stretched, each strand achieves unparalleled softness, flexibility and a body-molding quality that makes the Icon Chain stand out.
The men’s Icon 50 collection presents a fresh interpretation of this heritage piece, introducing bold colors, modern textures and customizable elements. Designed to evoke the effortless cool of vintage surf culture, the collection features vibrant hardstones, rich enamels and graphic iconography.
Blending timeless sophistication with a modern edge, the collection offers leather bracelets in the brand’s signature black and orange hues. Designed for effortless everyday wear, these pieces serve as versatile staples.
For those drawn to precious metals, the collection expands into 14K gold and sterling silver, featuring an array of cuffs, bracelets, rings and necklaces. Among them, the high-polish sterling silver cuffs stand out with their bold yet understated design.
The Icon 50 bracelets merge the classic curb link with John Hardy’s modern aesthetic, while the necklaces combine the Icon Chain’s signature weave with a timeless box chain. Rounding out the collection, the rings come in two popular sizes—7mm and 9mm—crafted in high-polish sterling silver. Whether worn solo or stacked, they provide the perfect finishing touch, elevating any look with refined simplicity.
<h2>Spear 50</h2>
<figure id="attachment_108867" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-108867" style="width: 1473px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-108867" src="https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/j.jpg" alt="" width="1473" height="993" srcset="https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/j.jpg 1473w, https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/j-300x202.jpg 300w, https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/j-1024x690.jpg 1024w, https://backend.daman.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/j-768x518.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1473px) 100vw, 1473px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-108867" class="wp-caption-text">Cuffs from John Hardy’s Spear 50 collection</figcaption></figure>
While the Icon Chain celebrates intricate weaving, the Spear 50 collection represents a modern evolution of design. Inspired by clean lines and precision, the pieces feature flex-and-thread engineering, creating a sleek, streamlined silhouette.
The men’s Spear 50 collection takes John Hardy’s classic flex cuff and reimagines it with vintage influences from the Mambal archives. This collection bridges past and present, incorporating hand-carved chain motifs alongside contemporary elements.
A defining feature of the collection is the darkened silver finish, achieved with black rhodium over sterling silver. This treatment lends a bold, modern edge to the classic design, making it a statement piece with an unmistakable presence. For those who prefer a more traditional aesthetic, the sterling silver option offers a refined and versatile alternative for everyday wear.
True to John Hardy’s commitment to responsible luxury, the collection incorporates ethically sourced diamonds, ensuring sustainability without compromising on elegance. Alongside silver and darkened silver, micro-pavé hand-set diamonds and black onyx elevate the collection, adding depth and sophistication to each piece.
Designed for both comfort and structure, the Spear 50 cuff’s flex engineering adapts effortlessly to movement. At the same time, it retains its bold sculptural form. With its perfect proportions, this meticulously crafted cuff transitions seamlessly from day to night, making it an essential accessory.
John Hardy’s 50th anniversary collections are a tribute to five decades of artistry, craftsmanship and innovation. As the brand looks ahead, it remains committed to pushing the boundaries of design while staying true to its heritage.
