Nautical jewelry incorporating boats, anchors, amd ship's wheels are always popular. So is sea life jewelry, themed around sea creatures and shells. I remember when I was a young teen, nearly everyone had a nautical charm bracelet, laden with anchors, starfish, dolphins, seahorses, and whatever else they could con their parents into buying for them. Marine themes and maritime symbols were popular then, and they are now!
I'You may know someone who owns some anchor earrings, or a sterling silver starfish or dolphin pendant. And, don't forget the occasional compass rose... that traditional symbol of navigation.

Some Common Maritime Symbols
That are used for nautical jewelry
The compass rose has been used for centuries te depict directional points. According to Wikipedia, cartographer Cresques Abraham was the first ever to draw an ornate compass rose right on the map itself. That's a picture of it at right, from his Catalan Atlas of 1375. Today, four, eight, and sixteen point compass roses are used not only as navigational symbols, but also in crests, organizational and corporate logos, and of course in decorative arts, including jewelry.
Ship's Wheel
While the spoke and circle design of the classic 'captain's wheel' is widely recognized, you might be surprosed to learn that many of the larger ships build today (like large cruise ships) are not steered by a wheel, but basically by a joy stick type device.
Anchor
Yep. Ships still use anchors, though in reality, there are more shapes than the widely recognized one that is familiar to most people. The classic anchor shape is used today not only in nautical jewelry, but also in other art forms. The Mariner's Cross. which is a cross that really looks like a stylized anchor, is seen as a symbol of hope or of a fresh start.

Cruise Ship Jewelry and Jewelry on Cruise Ships
Especially with avid cruisers, cruise ships are a popular jewelry theme. Cruise ship Charms and Italian charms with cruise ships on them are worn by those who love to cruise.On formal nights on cruise ships, you may see a even gentlman or two sport cruise ship cufflinks with his dress shirt or tuxedo shirt.
Cruise ships are also a great place to buy jewelry. Purchases made at sea are duty-free, so you could end up saving a bit on gold, diamonds, emeralds, and other fine pieces. For costume jewelry, the Gold by the Inch tables are always fun.

Pirates of the Caribbean Jack Sparrow with Gun by disney
Ah, Captain Jack Sparrow...
Pirates of the Caribbean continues to be popular. (Did you know that the above poster, as well as other licensed Pirates of the Caribbean gear, is available on Zazzle?)
And, there seems to have been a resurgence of popularity in piret-themed items in general since Jack and friends began capturing ships and hearts with their on screen antics.
So, I would have been remiss not to include a few pieces of pirate jewelry as well as Pirates of the Caribbean treasures, such as the ones that ollow.

- Good lens. I like the info on the compass rose. Only nautical jewelry I have is an inherited bracelet of signal flags which spell out I love you that my Dad gave my Mom when they were dating.
