These 5 Timeless Jewellery Pieces Are Always Worth the Investment
Much like Hermès Birkin bags, Rolex watches are seen by many as the pinnacle of luxury and prestige, sartorially speaking. And just like their handbag counterparts, these watches hold their value extremely well, making them smart investments. According to The RealReal, pristine Rolex watches hold 97% of their value on the resale market, but they aren't the only heirloom-worthy item worth saving up for.
Below, The RealReal revealed five pieces of jewellery that are similarly wise investments. For instance, some necklaces from celebrity-loved brand Foundrae can be resold for more than they were purchased for—how's that for proof that they're especially covetable right now? Scroll down to see and shop five prized possessions that are as valuable as Rolex watches right now.
1. Foundrae Necklaces and Charms
According to The RealReal, Foundrae necklaces hold approximately 106% of their value on the resale market right now.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
