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 singular, 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.

* In VideoGame/PokemonSuperMysteryDungeon items called the Harmony Scarves are magical scarves Hero and Partner wear. If near the Tree of Life, which they were made from, the scarves will temporarily evolve the pair and protect them from stone shadows in dire need. Also, in the Purifying Cave, at the cost of the scarves, Partner is brought back. In addition, Looplets can be considered Magical Accessories since they are the only way to use the special effects of Emeras.

* When not being used or shown off, the Soul Gems in ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' become rings or other items.
** In ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagicaTheMovieRebellion'', [[spoiler:Devil!]]Homura seals [[spoiler:Godoka's power]] in a very glittery earring that she never takes off. It serves as a visual indicator of her FaceHeelTurn.

* Robin's pedant in ''Literature/TheGirlFromTheMiraclesDistrict'', which serves as a ProtectiveCharm and AmplifierArtifact for Robin's aura.

* '''HairDecorations:''' Be it hair ribbons, hairpins, headbands (including martial arts ones) etc. Their functions are often similar to magic headwears above.

* Several kinds of fabrials in ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive'', but most prominently the Soulcaster fabrials, which are elaborate hand chains capable of transmutation of matter.

* '''Bracelets:''' Tend to be {{Amplifier Artifact}}s that boost spellcasting. Examples may fall under SuperWristGadget and GadgetWatches.

* '''Belts and belt buckles:''' May grant super strength or NighInvulnerability. Or, as often seen in Tokusatsu, as a TransformationTrinket. Compare UtilityBelt.

* '''ThePinIsMightierThanTheSword:''' A pin or badge that can give the user special abilities.

See also ClothesMakeTheSuperman and PoweredArmor for when it's clothing/armor 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).

* '''HatOfPower:''' Includes crowns, circlets, diadems, and tiaras. Examples of these should go there.

Contrast UselessAccessory; this trope may justify the accessory-loaded design by making all of them useful in some way.

* Several of the [[MorphWeapon Devices]] in the ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'' franchise take the form of necklaces in their Standby Mode. Specific examples include Nanoha's [[BoomStick Raising Heart]], Hayate's [[MagicStaff Schwertkreuz]], and Subaru's [[RollerbladeGood Mach Calibur]]. There are also some Wearable-Type Devices whose active mode come in the form of jewelry that provide support magic, such as [[WhiteMage Shamal's]] [[RingOfPower Klarwind]].

* Several kinds of fabrials in ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive'', but most prominently the Soulcaster fabrials.

* ''Manga/DragonBallZ'' featured the Potara Earrings, which when one earring is worn by two different people, caused them to [[FusionDance permanently fuse together]].

* Nita from the ''Literature/YoungWizards'' series has a charm bracelet which lets her hold up to nine pre-cast spells, with a spell taking instant effect just by plucking off one of the charms. The bracelet is actually a complicated matrix of pure magic which Nita made manifest physically by adding "virtual mass" to it.
