Jewellery for the Woman in your Life

Buying Jewellery For Women! A Guide To Choosing A Perfect Gift

By: Amy - Find Jewellery

Most women desire jewellery but often do not buy it for themselves as it is a luxury item. Giving the right jewellery as a gift can allow you to demonstrate how well you know the lady you are giving it to. It symbolises strength and longevity so it is a good gift to give to an important lady in your life, whether that is your girlfriend, wife, sister, mother or a friend. Choosing the right item can be a daunting prospect; this guide is here to try to help you to choose the perfect gift whatever their style.

Research

The first thing to consider is what she already wears. Most women will have a few items of jewellery that they love. Use these as a guide when you buy your gift.

The things to look out for are:

·The colour and type of metal she prefers. Silver, gold and white gold are the most common.

·What type of jewellery she wears. Does she have her ears pierced? If so note if her earrings are studs or drops. How about bracelets or necklaces? Try and think about the size and shapes of the items and the length of the chain of her necklaces.

·The colours that she wears. Look at both her jewellery and the colours of her clothes. If you wish to buy jewellery with coloured stones it is normally best to try to coordinate it with what she already wears. Red; start with garnet or ruby. Blue; try topaz or sapphire. Green; peridot or emerald. Yellow; citrine. Purple; amethyst. If you are unsure about colours then perhaps stick to jewellery that does not have a stone or go with diamonds or clear cubic zirconia which go with just about everything.

If you are still unsure try talking to friends and family. They are likely to be able to advise you about her preferences.

My top tips for buying the perfect gift

·Play fairly safe! If you are not 100% sure about what to choose, you should probably buy something that fits in with the research you've done.

·You could go for something that matches another item in her collection. For example if she has an amber pendant, try to find earrings to match.

·Alternatively find out her birthstone. If you need to know her birthstone you can find various birthstone jewellery here. Choosing birthstone jewellery is a lovely way to personalise a present.

·With jewellery choose quality over quantity every time.

·If possible buy real not imitation stones.

·Precious metals such as silver or gold are better than cheaper alternatives like copper. Not least because base metals such as copper could turn her green!

Good Luck! If you have any concerns please phone or email us. We will be happy to talk you through your options.
