This trope is for accessories and jewelry that don't just look pretty, but do stuff! There's a common "formula" behind the making of a Magical Accessory; you take a {{Power Crystal}} with [[StockSuperpowers superpowers]] and hire the UltimateBlacksmith to cut it and embed it into a [[SilverHasMysticPowers mystic silver]] setting. This SuperTrope covers just about any GlowingGem studded piece of [[EverythingsSparklyWithJewelry sparkly]] magical jewelry that has or grants powers and effects.
Because humans are historically quite good at making bling, there's a lot of tricked out trinkets this trope covers. From top to bottom, they are:
* '''HatOfPower:''' Includes crowns, circlets, diadems, and tiaras. Examples of these should go there.
* '''Earrings:''' being on the ear itself and jewelry they naturally lend themselves to themes such as [[SuperSenses super hearing]], [[MasterOfIllusion illusion]] and {{Glamour}} based abilities.
* '''Necklaces and chains:''' Cover the entire spectrum. Special mention goes to OrphansPlotTrinket, which this frequently doubles as.
* '''Armlets:''' Usually grant SuperStrength.
* '''Bracelets:''' Tend to be {{Amplifier Artifact}}s that boost spellcasting. Examples may fall under SuperWristGadget and GadgetWatches.
* '''RingOfPower:''' Do anything and everything, sometimes literally in the case of the GreenLanternRing. Examples of these should go in their respective tropes.

* Gene Starwind of ''Anime/OutlawStar'' had a two-way communicator disguised as a ear stud.
* When not being used or shown off, the Soul Gems in ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' become rings or other items.
* In the 1960s anime, ''Prince Planet'', the titular hero wears a medallion on his chest that gives him power.
[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* Some of the witches in ''Film/OzTheGreatAndPowerful'', rather than use wands, use magical artifacts to chanel their magic. Evanora has a necklace with a huge emerald. Theodora has a RingOfPower, and Glinda is the odd witch out with a MagicWand.
[[AC:{{Literature}}]]
* Technological version: in ''Literature/HardToBeAGod'' Don Rumata (a disguised observer from a spacefaring Earth on a medieval planet) wears a circlet with a single large gem. The gem is actually a camera and the circlet contains a one-way communicator that constantly transmits camera footage to mission control. He uses it to transmit his intelligence data and to alert other observers in case of danger. [[spoiler: it's because of this device Earth forces arrive in a nick of time in the finale to evacuate Rumata when he goes against his directives and puts himself in mortal danger.]]
* Pops up a lot in ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'', Harry Dresden himself has a shield bracelet which serves as a focus to generate a magical shield, as well as rings that store kinetic energy when he moves his hand and can unleash the energy at an enemy later.
[[AC:Tabletop Games]]

* In ''VideoGame/CaptainCommando'', [[ChildProdigy Baby Commando]] (Hoover)'s pacifier is a special device that lets him talk in thousands of language, including alien ones.
* On ''VideoGame/DarkCloud2'' the two protagonists Max and Monica derive their powers from two amulets they wear around their necks; with them they can go back and forth in time, among other things.
* In ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion'' the Amulet of Kings is the magical necklace that the entire game is about. It can only be warn by the Septim heir, however; he uses it to light the dragon fires as he wears it.
* In ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts'' Sora is able to change the properties of the keyblade by attaching tiny trinkets to the end of it.
[[AC:Western Animation]]
* Jerrica in ''[[WesternAnimation/{{Jem}} Jem and the Holograms]]'' had her two earrings, which are incredibly powerful hologram emiters paired with an advanced AI, Synergy. Together they allow her to have a dual identity and cause much misdirection.
* The amulet given to Mrs. Brisby by Nicodemus in Creator/DonBluth's ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH'' gives her the power to pull an entire cinder block with her children and worldly goods inside it out of a mudhole, and levitate it several feet to place it gently beside a large rock. Once the transposition is complete, Mrs. Brisby collapses as if from exhaustion.

* '''Earrings:''' being on the ear itself and jewelry they naturally lend themselves to themes such as [[SuperSenses super hearing]], [[MasterOfIllusion illusion]] and {{Glamour}} based abilities.
* '''Necklaces and chains:''' Cover the entire spectrum. Special mention goes to OrphansPlotTrinket, which this frequently doubles as.
* '''Armlets:''' Usually grant SuperStrength.
* '''Bracelets:''' Tend to be {{Amplifier Artifact}}s that boost spellcasting. Examples may fall under SuperWristGadget and GadgetWatches.
* '''RingOfPower:''' Do anything and everything, sometimes literally in the case of the GreenLanternRing. Examples of these should go in their respective tropes.
* '''Anklets:''' Usually give SuperSpeed.
Occasionally, the jewelry is technological rather than magical. [[ClarkesThirdLaw Sufficiently advanced technology]] and [[MagicFromTechnology all that.]] In both cases what would normally be purely decorative is now also very powerful and useful. When the trinket isn't a solitaire it may be part of a pair, like earrings or sets of rings. All the pieces may be needed to get the full SetBonus, though individual parts may keep some power. Much like the Silver Slippers in the ''Literature/WizardOfOz'' have to be together to grant wishes, but are individually still powerful [[Protective Charm]]s. Expect there to be a DramaticNecklaceRemoval at some point.
See also ClothesMakeTheSuperman for when it's clothing rather than jewelry. For purposes of trope differentiation, if it's jewelry it goes here, even if it's not made of gems and metal (like say an enchanted leather and bone necklace).

!!Examples:
[[AC:Anime and Manga]]
* ''Manga/DragonBallZ'' featured the Potara Earrings, which when one earring is worn by two different people, caused them to [[FusionDance permanently fuse together]].
* Gene Starwind of ''Anime/OutlawStar'' had a two-way communicator disguised as a ear stud.
* When not being used or shown off, the Soul Gems in ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' become rings or other items.
* In the 1960s anime, ''Prince Planet'', the titular hero wears a medallion on his chest that gives him power.
[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* Some of the witches in ''Film/OzTheGreatAndPowerful'', rather than use wands, use magical artifacts to chanel their magic. Evanora has a necklace with a huge emerald. Theodora has a RingOfPower, and Glinda is the odd witch out with a MagicWand.
[[AC:{{Literature}}]]
* Technological version: in ''Literature/HardToBeAGod'' Don Rumata (a disguised observer from a spacefaring Earth on a medieval planet) wears a circlet with a single large gem. The gem is actually a camera and the circlet contains a one-way communicator that constantly transmits camera footage to mission control. He uses it to transmit his intelligence data and to alert other observers in case of danger. [[spoiler: it's because of this device Earth forces arrive in a nick of time in the finale to evacuate Rumata when he goes against his directives and puts himself in mortal danger.]]
* Pops up a lot in ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'', Harry Dresden himself has a shield bracelet which serves as a focus to generate a magical shield, as well as rings that store kinetic energy when he moves his hand and can unleash the energy at an enemy later.
[[AC:Tabletop Games]]
* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' had a plethora of magical jewelry items, including various amulets, bracelets, brooches, cameos, crowns, earrings, medallions, necklaces, rings, scarabs and torcs.
[[AC:Video Games]]
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'' gives Link a pair of earrings that [[ConvectionSchmonvection allow him to walk into super-heated areas]] without his clothes catching fire.
* In ''VideoGame/CaptainCommando'', [[ChildProdigy Baby Commando]] (Hoover)'s pacifier is a special device that lets him talk in thousands of language, including alien ones.
* On ''VideoGame/DarkCloud2'' the two protagonists Max and Monica derive their powers from two amulets they wear around their necks; with them they can go back and forth in time, among other things.
* In ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion'' the Amulet of Kings is the magical necklace that the entire game is about. It can only be warn by the Septim heir, however; he uses it to light the dragon fires as he wears it.
* In ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts'' Sora is able to change the properties of the keyblade by attaching tiny trinkets to the end of it.
[[AC:Western Animation]]
* Jerrica in ''[[WesternAnimation/{{Jem}} Jem and the Holograms]]'' had her two earrings, which are incredibly powerful hologram emiters paired with an advanced AI, Synergy. Together they allow her to have a dual identity and cause much misdirection.
* The amulet given to Mrs. Brisby by Nicodemus in Creator/DonBluth's ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH'' gives her the power to pull an entire cinder block with her children and worldly goods inside it out of a mudhole, and levitate it several feet to place it gently beside a large rock. Once the transposition is complete, Mrs. Brisby collapses as if from exhaustion.
