6 occasions where jewellery is the perfect gift
Since the beginning of mankind, jewellery has been a popular gift. While the ancient Greeks barely wore jewellery in their daily lives, they often gave it as a gift of celebration to protect the wearer from evil and endow the owner with special powers. The ancient Romans gifted their loved ones with jewellery on special occasions to ward off evil. There is even evidence that couples in ancient Egypt would gift each other rings made of hemp to celebrate their marriage.
Although the tradition of giving jewellery as a gift is nothing new, the occasions where jewellery is gifted certainly have. While we no longer celebrate men returning from the hunt with jewellery made from bones and shells, we do have plenty of occasions in our modern world where jewellery makes the perfect gift.
Mother’s Day
Our mothers have showered us with love and care since the day we were bought into this world. Once a year, we get to show mum just how much we appreciate her with a Mother’s Day celebration. This is the perfect time to choose a piece of jewellery that shows your mum just how much she means to you and adds a little sparkle to her life. Take our diamond collection, for example; you’ll be giving mum a personalised gift to make her day just that much more special.
Wedding anniversaries
What better way to celebrate another trip around the sun than with a stunning piece of jewellery? It doesn’t need to be a 50-year gold anniversary or a 25-year silver anniversary to celebrate this special occasion with jewellery. Every year that you remain together is a milestone worth celebrating. Jewellery is the perfect symbolism of your love and commitment to one another.
The birth of a child
If an incredible woman in your life has recently given birth, you can celebrate her for the little miracle she’s brought into this world with jewellery. Often referred to as a ‘push present’, jewellery is something she can keep for the rest of her life as a reminder of the precious moment when she became a mum. Why not gift her a necklace that includes the birthstone of the new arrival.
Graduation
Graduations, whether from school or university, are a big deal. As a reward for their hard work and dedication, you can gift the special student jewellery on their big day. Yes, they’ll have a certificate to show for their unending efforts, but a piece of jewellery will make the memory of walking across the stage that much sweeter. A fingerprint bracelet is a great gift to complete graduation garb.
Birthdays
You don’t have to wait for big birthdays to give someone the gift of jewellery. Sometimes, it’s the small birthdays between the milestones that are the most memorable. Personalised pieces are the ideal birthday gift for someone special. But if you’re not entirely sure what jewellery to give the birthday guy or girl, opt for a gift card that allows them to create their own personalised piece.
Special moments
Although your typical occasions, such as Valentine’s Day or engagements, are often accompanied by precious pieces of jewellery, you don’t have to wait for a big day on the calendar to give someone jewellery as a gift. Job promotions, moving to a new city, and even just as a token of love and appreciation are perfect times to give glittering gifts of gold or silver.
