Jewelry is a very personal gift. Giving a piece of jewelry shows
the person you are giving it to that they are more than just an
acquaintance, thus special care should be used to select the right
piece. As with any other type of gifts, the type of jewelry you
would give someone is dependant on your relationship and on the
individual. Are they up-to-date on all that is trendy? Do they
have a classic style? The reason why one would give a piece is
because we want it to be with that person all the time. Thus when
in doubt, it is best to find simple classic pieces that would
endure the test of time. The latest fashion jewelry may be nice
and get you that wow effect, but like any fashion trend, once
it is passed, it will sure to end up at the bottom of the jewelry
box. Here are a few guidelines on what to get that special someone.

Gifts
for Women
Necklace,
pendant, earrings, bracelets and rings, these are the basic piece
of jewelry you would find in a woman’s jewelry box. Of course
there is the occasional brooch, but not many women wear brooches
today. Following this list, keep everything simple, uncomplicated
and you will give her something she’ll cherish beyond fashion
trends and fancy.
How
to choose a jewelry gift:
-
Keep everything simple and uncomplicated.
- Heavier
pieces look more sophisticated than tiny fragile pieces.
- Do
not go to big and bold.
Necklaces
Necklaces
and pendants are a good choice as a gift. From elegant and opulent
to chic and organic, nothing adorns a neck better than a necklace
or pendant.
Rings
Giving
a ring is the most personal jewelry gift. To give a ring shows
you know the woman well. How else would you know her ring size.
It you do not know her ring size, it is advised to give something
that does not require resizing as most jewelers charge for the
service. Moreover, when resizing, if not done properly, would
affect the durability of the ring.
Types of rings:
Cocktail rings: These are big bold rings that
grab attention. Normally adorned with a shimmering gemstone, the
cocktail ring is a must for any fashionista. They come in a variety
of colour, shape and style.
Band: Simple, unassuming, this is a ring that
can be worn everyday. You can have it engraved to add that personal
touch.

Gifts
for men
Buying
jewelry for a man is not obvious. You don’t want to give
anything too opulent else your guy will look like he came right
out of a gangster movie or a music video.
Cufflinks: Every man should have a pair of cufflinks.
A French cuff on a shirt just doesn’t look right with the
original buttons. A pair of cufflinks takes the look a step up.
Choose a pair in silver or gold that can match any shirt, suit
and tie.
