John Hardy Unveils Icon Gemstone and Heishi Gemstone Collections for Fall 2026
John Hardy has introduced new Fall 2026 iterations of its Icon Gemstone and Heishi Gemstone jewelry lines, expanding two core collections with hand-cut semi-precious gemstones and a broader color palette under the creative leadership of Creative Chairman Reed Krakoff.
The latest designs feature semi-precious stones such as topaz, tanzanite, chrysoprase, chalcedony, smoky quartz and fire opal, which are intended to be layered and personalized while maintaining the brand’s Balinese craft motifs. The updated pieces aim to add dimension and light to everyday jewelry without departing from John Hardy’s artisanal heritage.
Icon Gemstone reinterprets the brand’s woven chain with hand-cut, bezel-set gemstones that appear to float within their sterling silver settings, offering a tailored look that contrasts with the sculptural craft chain. Heishi Gemstone provides a more casual approach, combining artisanal Heishi beads with semi-precious center stones, enamel accents, silver and 14k gold in bracelets, necklaces and earrings designed to be mixed and stacked.
Both collections continue the modernist direction of John Hardy after its 50th anniversary, using material and color to refresh established silhouettes. The Icon Gemstone and Heishi Gemstone pieces will be available beginning August 5, 2026 at John Hardy boutiques, select retail partners and on johnhardy.com
