Something about the contrast of the eco-conscious quality of John Hardy jewelry and the extravagant glamour of Hollywood just clicks. John Hardy’s sustainable luxury designs, which are handcrafted using traditional Balinese techniques, look right in place on Los Angeles red carpets as they do on the beaches of their Indonesian island origins.
It didn’t take long for Hollywood trendsetters to be drawn to the jewelry’s exotic appeal, and we have, in fact, identified 6 celebrities who just can’t get enough of the island-inspired yet luxurious pieces such as these from Nordstrom and Saks Fifth Avenue:
1. Classic Chain Collection Square Stud Earrings with London Blue Topaz (Cushion) and Diamond Pave(0.36ct), $1,200 2. Bamboo Collection Slim Station Bangle 2mm with Diamond Pave (0.39ct), $2,900 3. Classic Chain Collection Medium Braided Ring with Amethyst (Cushion) and Diamond (0.60ct), $1,650 4. Classic Chain Collection Small Bracelet with Diamond Pave (0.17ct), $995 5. Naga Collection Kick Cuff in 18K Gold, $5,800
1. Carrie Underwood’s Bracelet and Dangling Earrings
Country crooner Carrie Underwood has stayed true to John Hardy jewelry. Seen wearing dangling earrings with circle shapes back in 2009, Carrie was again spotted wearing a very similar style over five years later.
She also added a gold ring and a gold John Hardy chain bracelet from the Classic Chain Collection to her must-have accessories.

2. Ciara’s Square-Cut Gem Ring
Ciara, who has always had a tough yet sexy style, was naturally attracted to John Hardy ring with a mysterious square-cut gem. Most likely inspired by Bali’s black sand beaches, the ring complemented the sleekness of Ciara’s black sequined Pamella Roland gown.

3. Zendaya Coleman’s Sparkling John Hardy Jewels
Star-in-the-making Zendaya has found that John Hardy jewels’ one-of-a-kind designs match her individualistic fashion sense. So much so that she’s been spotted wearing the label’s sparklers on over five occasions.
Stacked, heaped, and piled high, JH bracelets, bangles and rings go all out with Zendaya’s street-meets-glam style.

4. Nina Dobrev’s John Hardy Bamboo Bracelets
The epitome of luxe-boho LA style, young Hollywood A-lister Nina Dobrev utilized John Hardy Bamboo bracelets to add a laid-back touch to her high-glam look.
The nature-inspired design of the slim silver bracelets contrasts cleanly with the frilly lace of her blue Elie Saab gown and her fancy Rauwolf mirror clutch.

5. Cara Delevingne’s Asian-Inspired John Hardy Rings
We also have Cara Delevingne as one of the celebrities who is a fan of the label’s Asian inspired designs. And the feeling is mutual. The jewelry brand, which was founded by John Hardy in 1975, selected Cara to be the face of their two most recent ad campaigns.
The English model rolled on black-sand beaches, splashed in the ocean waves, and lent her edgy look to the label’s Fall 2014 ads. For the Spring 2015 season, Cara tapped into her softer and sexier side and laid on a cozy, white bed. Against black or white, John Hardy jewelry definitely stands out.
