Men rarely buy jewellery in sets. More often they choose one piece and wear it for years, until it becomes part of the silhouette in the same way as a watch or a wedding band. The Angle collection was made for that kind of choice: small, consistent, built on a few shapes that take daily wear.
BELLER men's jewellery is sixteen pieces from the Angle collection: necklaces and bangles in 585 and 750 gold and in 925 silver, made by hand in our own workshop in Warsaw. Silver starts at 1 050 PLN, gold at 8 650 PLN. Bangles are made to a given wrist measurement, engraving is free of charge, and the whole collection can be seen at Mokotowska 71 in Warsaw and Szczepańska 9 in Kraków.
What sets BELLER men's jewellery apart?
Proportion, and the fact that every piece is filled with solid metal rather than rolled from thin sheet. That decides the weight you feel on the wrist and whether an edge will survive years of contact with a keyboard, a steering wheel and a shirt cuff. Thin sheet dents after a few seasons, solid metal keeps its shape.
The second thing is the language of the shapes. Angle rests on geometry: straight lines, defined edges, pendants 30 mm high. There is no ornament here, only angles, planes and the way light travels down them. The gold and silver come exclusively from certified, ethical sources.
What does the Angle collection hold?
The collection holds sixteen pieces: necklaces with a geometric pendant and bangles, each in a gold and a silver version. The gold Angle N°1 necklace has a pendant of 30 by 8 mm and weighs 6.97 g, while N°2 and N°3 are heavier at 11.64 g and 11.59 g. In silver the same shapes weigh between 4.6 g and 8.27 g.
Among the bangles, gold N°1, N°2 and N°3 are 5 mm wide and weigh 16.25 g, N°5 is 6 mm and 21 g, and the widest, N°4, is 7 mm and 22 g. Their silver counterparts weigh from 12.5 g at 5 mm to 19 g at 7 mm. We wrote separately about why men's bracelets are chosen most often today.
How does 585 gold differ from 750 in men's jewellery?
They differ in character, not in class. 585 gold holds 58.5% pure gold, is harder and takes daily wear better. 750 holds 75% pure gold, its colour is warmer and deeper and the material slightly softer, which reads as an occasion choice.
Every Angle piece is made in both alloys, and the necklaces additionally in three colours of gold: yellow, white and rose. The mechanics of hallmarks are explained in our piece on gold hallmarks.
Why are men's bangles made to measure?
Because a bangle has no clasp to absorb an error, and it either slides onto the hand exactly as it should or turns on the wrist all day. So we make each one by hand to a given circumference rather than in off the shelf sizes. How to measure and choose that circumference is set out step by step in our guide to bangle size.
Should the measurement turn out wrong, one resizing after purchase is included in the price, as is shortening a necklace chain. You do not need to worry about it, we will take care of it.
What does rhodium plating do for men's silver?
Rhodium plating covers silver with a thin layer of rhodium, a platinum group metal that is harder than silver and resistant to the sulphur present in air. The surface gains a cool, mirror-like shine close to white gold, and the piece tarnishes more slowly.
Angle silver is additionally hardened, meaning it is strengthened in a controlled process so that a bangle returns to shape instead of bending out. How such a material behaves day to day is covered in our text on rhodium plated silver, and all our silver jewellery sits in one place.
Can men's jewellery be personalised?
Yes, on three levels. The first is engraving, which at BELLER is free of charge: Angle pendants have a flat, wide surface and the bangles a profile of 5 to 7 mm, so there is plenty of room for a date, initials or coordinates. The second is the finish, since the same bangle can be given a high polish, a matt surface or a hammered effect.
The third is a piece designed from scratch. If a shape from the collection is close but not exactly what you are looking for, we discuss a special order and carry it from sketch to collection. What engraving does to a piece over the years is covered in our text on engraved jewellery.
How much does men's jewellery in gold and silver cost?
In the Angle collection silver necklaces start at 1 050 PLN and silver bangles at 1 150 PLN, with the widest models N°4 and N°5 at 1 350 PLN. In gold, necklace N°1 costs 8 650 PLN, N°2 and N°3 cost 11 950 PLN each, bangles N°1 to N°3 cost 12 550 PLN, N°4 costs 15 500 PLN and N°5 costs 15 550 PLN.
The span between silver and gold comes straight from the price and mass of the metal, since the work is the same in both. For many people a silver bangle is the first piece, and in time the same shape follows in gold.
Where to see men's jewellery in Warsaw and Kraków?
In two BELLER boutiques: Mokotowska 71 in Warsaw and Szczepańska 9 in Kraków, Monday to Saturday from 11:00 to 19:00. It is worth coming, because millimetres begin to mean something only when a 7 mm bangle sits on the wrist next to a 5 mm one.
Pieces held in stock ship within 2 to 5 working days, while made to measure orders are completed on a date agreed individually. We also take express orders and can help when timing is tight, once the date has been agreed with the workshop. Delivery within Poland and the European Union is free of charge.

How much does BELLER men's jewellery cost?
Silver Angle necklaces start at 1 050 PLN and silver bangles at 1 150 PLN. Gold necklaces start at 8 650 PLN and gold bangles at 12 550 PLN.
Can a BELLER men's bangle be fitted to the wrist?
Yes. Angle bangles are made by hand to a given measurement, so the circumference is set before the work begins. One resizing after purchase is included in the price.
Which gold hallmark works best in men's jewellery?
We make Angle pieces in both 585 and 750. The 585 alloy is harder and takes daily wear better, while 750 has a warmer, deeper colour and reads as an occasion piece. A higher hallmark does not mean a better piece, only a different character.
Does BELLER men's silver jewellery tarnish?
Silver in the Angle collection is hardened and rhodium plated, which protects it from tarnishing and scratches and gives a shine close to white gold. Refreshing and polishing at the boutique is free of charge.
Can a men's necklace or bangle be engraved?
Yes, engraving at BELLER is free of charge. Angle pendants and the wide profiles of the bangles leave plenty of room for it.
