THE EVOLUTION CONTINUES WITH SPEAR SLIM, A CONTEMPORARY 4 MM CUFF DESIGNED FOR EFFORTLESS STACKING — A NOD TO THE BRAND’S ABILITY TO MEET MODERN STYLE PREFERENCES WHILE MAINTAINING ARTISANAL INTEGRITY.
Krakoff, who joined John Hardy as creative chairman in 2022, brings decades of industry experience and a minimalist eye honed at Coach and Tiffany & Co. Since taking the helm, he has introduced the high fine Artisan series, launched in fall 2024, showcasing rare diamonds and precious gemstones in 18K yellow and white gold. He’s also expanded existing collections like Surf, Pebble, and Love Knot, and ushered in collaborations with names including Athena Calderone (spring
2025), Todd Snyder, and Wölffer Estate. His approach has balanced reverence for traditional Balinese craftsmanship with a clean, contemporary design language, helping John Hardy reach new audiences while deepening loyalty among longtime fans. The anniversary coincides with physical expansion, including new retail locations at Rockefeller Center in New York and Miami’s Design District, both opened in late 2024. These flagship stores underscore the brand’s
growing luxury positioning, alongside a successful shop-in-shop at Saks Palm Beach Gardens and a robust wholesale presence. As John Hardy celebrates 50 years, it continues to honor the values on which it was founded — community, artisanship, and sustainability — while embracing change through visionary leadership. With Reed Krakoff steering the creative direction, the brand is poised not just to celebrate its past but to define the next era of modern jewelry design.
