Let us help you find a necklace, bracelet, ring, or pair of earrings that will show your spouse, girlfriend, boyfriend, friend, or child how much you care. Choose a Jewellery category Selecting a jewellery gift is easier when you narrow down the choices by category. Necklaces and bracelets are good choices for almost anyone. Earrings are simple to shop for if you know that the recipient has pierced ears. Rings take a little extra thought because you will need to select the right size. Pins, brooches, and hair accessories are good options if you are not confident about sizing. Think about personality People use clothing and ac- cessories to represent different aspects of their personality. If you want to give a present that the recipient will really love, you have to think about her personality. If she prefers to get dressed up and wear more formal styles, you want to choose nicer jewellery that has a more fashionable appeal. If she prefers more casual look, though, try to find jewellery that she can wear on a daily basis. Shopping based on one's personality helps you ensure that you will give her a gift she will love. Learn the recipient's interests and hobbies As with any gift, jewellery is al- ways better when it is meaningful. Put a little thought into the jewel- lery you are selecting, rather than opting for an extravagant, generic piece. An equestrian might ap- preciate horseshoe earrings, for instance, while a young ballerina might like a necklace that ties with a satin bow. Religious charms and birthstones can also make a gift personal. If you are selecting an engagement ring or other piece of jewellery that will be worn daily, be sure to choose something that will fit perfectly into the recipient's lifestyle. Think about needs Choosing a piece of jewellery that someone really needs shows that you really made an effort to give a gift he or she will love. If she wears a necklace every day but does not seem to have a lot of bracelets, for example, you might want to set your sights on the bracelet selection and if he passes comments on how he loves rings on men but he doesn't own one yet, that's a really good indication that a ring would be the ideal gift for him. Consider symbolism Jewellery can be used to say many things. Heart necklaces are the perfect example of showing your true feelings. There are also more subtle ways to incorporate meaning into a gift of jewellery. A brooch with five stones, for in- stance, can represent five years of marriage, and a necklace with the birthstones of her children will be very special to any mom. Use your best judgment If you are close to the recipi- ent of the gift, you probably have a good idea of their personality. While you are shopping, try to let your eyes wander until you find a piece that reminds you of the person. If there is something about the jewellery that reminds you of that special someone, there is a good chance that it is a piece of jewellery that they will love. Personalize your gift Engraving a jewellery gift is a great way to make it special. Add- ing a meaningful engraving to an engagement ring, diamond brace- let or heart necklace pendant will personalize the item and remind your loved one of an occasion or special event. Be sure that you are confident in the fit and style of the jewellery item, as personalized jewellery cannot be returned. Maybe all that glitters isn't gold, but jewellery gifts will always delight and impress. To thrill a special person in your life, spend a little bit of time selecting the perfect jewellery gift Jewellery is always better when it is meaningful
