Your Christmas Jewellery Gift Guide For A Happy, Relaxed Holiday Season
What’s the most thoughtful piece of jewellery you could give someone for Christmas? A difficult question and a challenging endeavour, but when you get it right, everyone involved will think the effort and care you have taken will be worthwhile! Check out our Christmas jewellery gift guide; perhaps you have thought of everything, but read on and make sure that everything goes smoothly!
Giving a gift she doesn't like can ruin her Christmas - and yours - and nobody wants that!
Let's be honest: who doesn't want to find a set of earrings wrapped up and waiting for them beneath the Christmas tree? Jewellery is the gift that outshines all other gifts. Still, before you start shopping for the perfect piece of bling to give to your mother, sister, girlfriend or best friend, it is usually helpful to have some idea of what the recipient enjoys having.
Do they prefer necklaces over rings, or do they wear both? Earrings with dangles or simple studs? Gold jewellery or silver? Before swiping that card, ensure you understand your audience well because the questions are never-ending, which is especially important if you make an expensive purchase.
Our ten tips will help you to choose the perfect jewellery gift for the special person in your life.
1) Make Sure The Gift Has Meaning.
When you choose a gift that has a special meaning to the recipient, it shows that you cared about your loved one when you went shopping. A birthstone item is an excellent gift because it represents the month of birth. There are necklaces in the shape of a heart. Initial necklaces or signet rings add a personal touch, while eternity rings declare, "I love you now and forever."
2) Has She Been Dropping Hints?
Think back over recent conversations. Has she been dropping hints to you? Has she been showing you images on web pages with words something like “Isn’t that pretty? Would it look nice on me?” If so, you’re in luck. Follow her lead; she will love that you listened and will still exclaim her surprise and delight!
On the other hand, very few other two-word instructions are as likely to cause a gift-buying man’s heart to fall as much as "surprise me." However, rather than getting worked up over the possibility that this is a thinly veiled effort at a personality test, you should listen to some tried-and-true advice that will serve you well for the rest of your life: diamonds are a safe bet in any situation.

3) Get Ideas From Their Existing Jewellery
Examine the jewellery that your loved one already owns. Why? Because it will reveal their favourite jewellery style. Look for the following: Do they dress in simple, small items? Or big, glitzy, flashy ones? Do they favour white metals or yellow gold? Are their ears pierced?
You can even photograph their favourite jewellery and show it to your retailer. Simply match your gift to their current style.
4) Think About Her Skin Tone
Even if you may already be aware of the predominant colour of jewellery that the recipient wears, in the event that you are unclear of this information, we advise that you consider their complexion. White gold and silver generally look best with cooler skin tones, while yellow gold and copper will look better with neutral and warmer complexion tones.
5) Look At How They Shop.
It's a good idea to take a stroll through a mall or look at online jewellery stores together. Make a mental note of the pieces of jewellery that make the recipient's eyes light up. You should keep an eye on the person you are giving a gift to and let their reactions guide your gift choice. is it a ring, a necklace, earrings, or a bracelet? Then note what style arouses their attention. What could be simpler? With a little patience and empathy at this stage, you are almost certain to make the right choice.

6) Don't Try To Alter Their Preferences.
It's possible that you think that hoop earrings are stunning in their own right. But if you know that the person you care about does not enjoy wearing hoop earrings, you shouldn't buy them.
Even if you give them an expensive gift for Christmas, they won't be persuaded to dress in a way that they don't like. It is more likely to have the opposite effect, and the surprise you have planned for Christmas Day will end up being a let-down for both of you.
7) Remember That First Impressions Count!
The saying goes, “You never get a second chance to make a first impression.” It is very true when we meet people but also when you give a gift. Wherever you buy your Christmas jewellery gift, make sure that it is presented in high-quality packaging.
Before you make your purchase, check how the jewellery will be packaged. If necessary, pay a little extra for the best jewellery presentation box. Our jewellery is sent out in a luxurious slip-covered outer box. Inside, the display box is revealed on a soft, protective cushion. We wish all fine jewellery was presented this way, but sadly, it isn’t.
8) You Shouldn’t Buy A Ring Unless You're Already Married Or Intend To Propose.
Do not give the person you are romantically involved with a ring until you are either already engaged, married, or planning to pop the question.
If you don't clarify yourself, they might think you're proposing marriage!
If you don’t want to give your partner an engagement ring, try giving her a beautiful necklace, bracelet, or earrings instead.
In the event that you are already engaged or married, an eternity ring makes an excellent gift for the holidays.
9) Consult With Their Friends For Guidance.
Friends and family members of the person who will receive your gift are the people whose age and preferences are most similar to those of the recipient. They are, consequently, the best people to advise you on the preferences of the person you care about rather than the person's parents. If there is a piece of jewellery you are unsure about, you should inquire with the salesperson about having them check it out for you. Make sure they are capable of keeping the information confidential!

10) Keep The Receipt In Case Something Goes Wrong.
Sometimes, even the most careful shoppers for presents make a mistake. Always keep the receipt if you need to return or exchange the gift for something else, and check the store's return and exchange policy before making a purchase there.
11) Purchase Items Of The Highest Quality You Can Afford.
You have complete control over your financial plan. In point of fact, if it is selected out of love and care, a simple white gold and diamond bracelet will have the same effect on the wearer as a diamond eternity ring. The most essential thing is to ensure that the person you care about receives the most thoughtful and beautiful present that your money can buy.

12) Don’t Leave Your Christmas Shopping Too Late
Start looking for jewellery early because placing an order for it can take some time. This is especially important to keep in mind when purchasing rings, as jewellery stores do not always carry them in each and every available size.
Shop in November, or at the very latest, early in December, just in case you need to special order something. In this way, you can ensure that your glittering gift will be placed under the tree, ready for the big day. Most online stores will publish information about the last possible days that you can safely order your jewellery gift, but always, sooner is better than later!
