I love the look of delicate layered jewelry. I think gold looks especially chic when paired with super easy outfits. But to perfect the trend of delicate stacked rings, curated ear parties, and lightly layered chains, you need a sizeable collection of pieces to mix and match. This can get expensive; even when you buy from online retailers that claim to cut out middlemen markups.
Do you also love the layered look and don’t want to spend a fortune on real gold or gold-plated pieces? Or do you need a nice budget-friendly gift for a friend? I have just the thing: the affordable Amazon jewelry brand, Pavoi.

I learned about Pavoi on a Reddit beauty sub I follow. Those Redditors raved about the quality and price. And they recommended Pavoi over other online jewelry shops like Mejuri, Aurate, and Gorjana. I was skeptical that jewelry could be that great at the price point, so I started with three everyday pieces: the 14k gold-plated lightweight hoops ($13.95), gold-plated croissant dome ring ($12.95), and 14k white gold-plated small huggie hoops ($12.95). I wanted to compare the huggies to a similar $65 style I own and love from Mejuri to see how Pavoi stacks up.
The Verdict
Well guys… the jewelry is really, really good. While my Mejuri earrings are coated in a more durable vermeil, the gold-plated Pavoi huggies look super similar. And they’re less than a quarter of the price. So far they’re holding up beautifully and haven’t scratched or tarnished after a good amount of wear. Verdict: I think the Pavoi huggies come out on top!
The stars of this post are the lightweight hoop earrings. It’s no wonder they have over 9,000 5-star reviews! These $14 thin square tube hoops are incredibly comfortable to wear all day, don’t irritate my sensitive ears, and look luxe. You can also buy them in white or yellow gold vermeil for under $30. Pavoi claims their vermeil jewelry “is made with a solid s925 sterling silver base and plated in 14K gold that is 10x thicker than the industry standard ‘plated gold’. (Vermeil is a very durable, hypoallergenic material that’s made to last and costs way less than solid gold.) You can find more gold vermeil pieces in Pavoi’s demi-fine collection.
The Good Stuff
A lot of inexpensive high street and discount retailers have steep human and environmental costs. But I’m happy to report that this affordable jewelry brand isn’t just about cheap thrills; you can feel good about supporting Pavoi while scoring beautiful pieces on a budget. Here are a few points from their website that I love:
Attainable For All – PAVOI strives to always deliver on-trend designs at an extremely affordable price. With over 50,000 5-star reviews we are on a mission to prove that quality jewelry does not need to be expensive.
