30 Pieces of Jewelry That Are Just Our Type
We love typography—from hanging it on your wall, to displaying your initials, and decorating with it in general, we can’t get enough. Today we’ve found 30 fun, font-tastic ways to show off your design geek credentials. From delicate initial rings to statement necklaces that go from A to Z, there’s something for the type nerd in everyone.
1. Helvetica Necklace ($16): This bright red necklace from plastique* is an obvious choice to show off your design nerd status.
2. Catbird Alphabet Rings ($56-$96): Available in gold or silver these delicate rings are made for stacking. We’d love to see the gold and silver together, too. Mixingmetals is the way to go!
3. The Signature Necklace ($195-$295): Have a great signature? Show it off in this version of the name plate necklace. Just be forewarned that it will take a while for them to make the necklace. If you don’t love your handwriting there’s also a calligraphy version.
4. YOLO Bracelet ($5): Show off your favorite motto with this name plate bracelet, or just use it as an excuse when you do something…out of the ordinary.
5. Say Yes Crazy Town Ring ($78): One of our favorite sayings on a a bold ring. We’ll definitely be buying this one. And if rings aren’t your style they also have a necklace.
6. Smile Necklace Birch ($24): We love this motto from the CEO of Fab, and we love even more that we can wear it around our necks as a laser-cut birch pendant.
7. Pilcrow Pendant Necklace ($14): Did you remember that the paragraph symbol is actually called a pilcrow? Show off your word nerd status with this pendant.
8. Gorjana Alphabet Stackable Ring $30): If the Catbird ones are out of your price range, try these sweet stackable rings with uppercase letters instead of lowercase.
9. As If Necklace ($22): We’re pretty sure Cher and Dionne would have each had one of these necklaces.
10. Fashion Alphabet Watch ($68): We know you know your ABCs, but this watch has a great back-to-school feel, and we’ll never say no to tone-on-tone purple.
11. It’s Me Necklace II ($119): Make having that talk easier with this shiny metallic name plate necklace.
12. Hashtag Studs ($24): Show off your social media prowess with these studs. Though we will be tempted to make the #yourface joke.
13. Letterpress Necklace ($55): These type necklaces are incredibly subtle. They look just like rectangular pendants, but they have an embossed letter on the end—just like the type used in letterpress machines. They are also available in gold.
14. Cross Stitch Pin Kit ($22): You’ll have to do a little bit of stitching to make this pin, but you can customize your initial or another design if you choose.
15. Zodiac Nameplate Necklace ($16): Don’t want to tell people your name? Show off your sign instead with one of these gold-plated chains.
16. Ampersand Studs ($18): We love the simple lines of these ampersand earrings. They are actually just made from sterling silver wire, but considering we have to practice each time we draw an ampersand, we’d rather buy than DIY.
17. Read Necklace ($45): Similar to our wire art wall signs (but in miniature!) this necklace is a good reminder to open a book (or e-reader) every once in a while.
18. Breathe Cuff ($30): No matter which direction you’re wearing it, this bracelet will remind you to just take a deep breath and relax.
19. Love Studs ($9): Looking for a basic way to show your type love, these inexpensive studs are your best bet.

22. Curly Bracket Earrings Sadly, we couldn’t find a link to purchase these, but there’s a contact page for the artist—you just might be able to commission a pair.
23. Semicolon Brooch ($8.50): A grammar guru’s favorite accessory, this clay brooch will show off your punctuation prowess.

28. To Be Or Not To Be Necklace ($17): If you want to get literary with your jewelry go for this Shakespearian necklace. It’s also available in bright cobalt blue.
29. Lulu Frost Gold Code Ring ($440): No doubt these are the splurge baubles on the list, but they are done by famed jewelry designer Lulu Frost, and are inspired by vintage estate sale finds.
