The annual Primetime Emmy Awards took place Sunday at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles.

Eugene and Dan Levy, a father-son duo who starred in nine-time Emmy-winning show “Schitt’s Creek,” hosted the 76th annual Primetime Emmys.

This year marked new records for the award show with “Shōgun,” an FX drama set in Japan, setting the record for most wins by a show for a single season after being nominated for 25 Emmys and taking home 18.

“The Bear,” an FX show which premiered on Hulu, set the record for being the most nominated comedy with 23 nominations in its category.

If I were giving out awards for Outstanding Jewelry Seen at the Emmys, these stars would receive my nomination.

Here are my eight favorite looks from the 76th annual Emmys, in no particular order.

Maya Rudolph

Rudolph’s Serpenti earrings, bracelet, and ring were also set in yellow and white gold with diamonds and emeralds.

She received two nominations, one for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her performance in “Loot” and another for Outstanding Scripted Variety Series with “Saturday Night Live.”

Lily Gladstone, a Native American actress, writer, and producer best known for “Killers of the Flower Moon,” wore pieces from two different jewelry designers.

She styled her black velvet and satin Rodarte gown with an etched copper chest plate designed by Indigenous artist Agnes Seaweed Wisden of Sea Wisdom Design.

Gladstone paired the chest plate with a ring and matching bracelet also by Wisden.

She also wore jewelry by Wempe.

Gladstone made history at the Emmys this year with Kali Reis as they became the first two Indigenous women to be nominated for an Emmy. She was nominated in the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or TV Movie category for “Under the Bridge.”

Reese Witherspoon  
 

Reese Witherspoon was nominated for Lead Actress in a Drama Series along with her co-star Jennifer Aniston for “The Morning Show.”

The series also received a nomination for Outstanding Drama Series.

Witherspoon matched her black Dior dress with cream-colored floral appliques to her yellow diamond jewelry, wearing a diamond pendant choker, rings, and earrings by Bucherer.

All of her pieces featured fancy yellow and fancy intense yellow diamonds set in platinum.

She also wore a Serpenti bracelet in white gold with two pair-shaped emeralds and pavé-set diamonds.

This year, Randolph won Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars for her role in “The Holdovers.”

At the Emmys, she received a nomination as Best Guest Actress in a Comedy for “Only Murders in the Building.”
