Why did Julez Bryant design a collection made of 14k gold and starting at $225?

The Lark Collection: A New Era of Everyday Luxury Jewelry

There comes a moment when you’re ready to leave behind what’s temporary fast fashion, quick fixes, and gold that flakes after a few wears. You start to crave something real. 

That’s who we designed The Lark Collection for.

Julez Bryant has always created jewelry for women who are bold, intuitive, and ready to invest in themselves. And while our core line has long been rooted in heirloom-quality fine jewelry, we saw a need to create something new: a collection that could help women make the leap from plated gold and gold filled jewelry to real.

The Truth About Plated, Filled, and Solid Gold

Let’s talk materials.

We’re often asked, “What’s the difference between gold plated, gold filled, and 14k solid gold?” 

Gold Plated Jewelry is made with a thin layer of gold (microns thick) over a base metal like brass or copper. It looks good at first, but it wears off quickly, especially with daily use. It can tarnish, chip, and irritate skin over time.

Gold Filled Jewelry is a step up. It has a thicker layer of gold mechanically bonded to a base metal core, often making it last longer than plated. But it’s still not solid, and eventually, with enough wear, it shows.

14k Solid Gold Jewelry, like what we use in every piece of Julez Bryant fine jewelry, is gold through and through. It never flakes, never fades, and ages beautifully with you. It’s the difference between a temporary trend and a lifetime staple.

We designed The Lark Collection for the woman who’s ready to make that shift. She’s outgrown plated. She’s done with filled. She’s ready for gold that doesn’t apologize for being bold or lasting.

An Invitation to Fine Jewelry, On Your Terms

The Lark is our most approachable line yet. It’s the bridge between everyday wear and timeless investment. Every piece is made in real 14k gold with white diamond accents, designed to layer, stack, and style effortlessly.

Starting at just $225, The Lark brings the craftsmanship, design integrity, and aesthetic you’ve come to expect from Julez Bryant, without the high price point barrier.

Whether it’s your first piece of modern fine jewelry or your first time choosing real gold over plated, The Lark is here to welcome you in.

Classic Meets Bold In Every Detail

These pieces were intentionally created to feel both classic and confident. You’ll find clean lines, soft edges, and unexpected silhouettes that add just enough attitude to your daily stack. Each necklace, charm, bracelet, and ring is made to be lived in.

No more taking your jewelry off before you shower.
No more green marks.
No more fading finishes.

This is fine jewelry for real life, made to go wherever you go, and designed to feel like you.

Why It Matters

Jewelry is personal. It marks chapters, milestones, and self-discoveries. The Lark isn’t just a collection, it’s a mindset. It’s for the woman who is starting to see herself differently. The one who’s building a collection not for trends, but for herself. 

We believe you deserve jewelry that keeps up with you, and holds its value, in every sense.

Whether you’re stepping into fine jewelry for the first time or adding something new to your story, The Lark Collection by Julez Bryant is where everyday luxury begins.
