Give your loved one a ring to remember





Buying jewellery can be an exciting and confusing time. There are so many options to choose from that it can be a bit overwhelming. There are a few things that need to be discovered before making a large jewellery purchase.

The first thing that you will want to know is if you are allergic to any of the metals that are commonly found in jewellery. It would be a shame to buy a very expensive piece of jewellery only to discover that you are allergic to it. Also before you make an expensive jewellery purchase make sure that you know what you want and what you like. Buy something that you will be able to appreciate for many years to come.

Birthstones are a very popular gift giving idea and make lovely presents. When purchasing a birthstone for a loved one be sure that you know which birthstone they prefer. Several months have more than one birthstone option to choose from. Also be sure to buy jewellery that goes well with your size and frame. A large thick gold chain on a small or petite woman will look very silly. Likewise a thin gold chain would not be a good choice for a large man.

Five Great Jewellery Gifts for Her

Jewellery is the most romantic of all gifts. If romance is your end, then jewellery is the means to achieve it. The gift of jewellery speaks a thousand words: it talks about the seriousness of a relationship, the seriousness of one's intentions, and the amount of thought and passion invested in a gift selection.

When it comes to jewellery there are five gift choices: a broach, a pair of earrings, a bracelet, a necklace, and the ring.

1. The broach
A rule of thumb: jewellery items that are worn further away from the ring finger are less intimate. Jewellery worn closer to the ring finger are always more intimate, romantic and much more serious. With this in mind, a broach is the ideal first-time jewellery gift. It is a jewellery item that is classy, without being misunderstood.



2. The earrings
Women have adorned themselves with earrings for thousands of years. Even multiple ear piercings are not new; Egyptian women loved wearing numerous earrings. As a gift, earrings can be casual or formal, depending on your budget and the impression you choose to make.



3. The bracelet
Bracelets are available in two kinds: wrist bracelets and ankle bracelets. Wrist bracelets are more personal and intimate, while ankle bracelets are more casual and fun. Ankle bracelets are also deemed a sexy jewellery, so it all depends on what impression you want to make.



4. The necklace
Necklaces, by virtue of being worn close to the heart, are romantic and intimate gifts. Necklaces can be stylish and trendy or classic and traditional. They can be short or long, they can come with or without a pendant. Adding a pendant to a necklace is an extra personal touch. Pendants can also be engraved with a message.



5. The ring
Rings are the ultimate in romantic jewellery gifts and almost always symbolize a new phase in a relationship. There are rings to suit every budget, mood, and message. Rings can also be fun and casual, but they are always intimate symbols of romance.
