H1 – How to choose the perfect jewellery gift. 

H2 – Your guide to selecting a personalised piece of jewellery for that special someone (and that special someone can be you!).

Choosing the perfect gift can be a daunting task when there are many beautiful pieces of jewellery to select from. You want the receiver to love and cherish it and your care and thought to be reflected in your choice.

But the process doesn’t have to be stressful if you follow our simple guide to help you choose. And when making your choice, these tips will ensure you pick a piece of personalised jewellery your lucky receiver will adore forever.

What’s their style?

Firstly, you should consider the style of the person you’re shopping for. Everyone has their own personal taste, reflected in their choice of jewellery and clothing.  What types of jewellery does your recipient typically wear? Do they prefer more modern pieces, or is their jewellery traditional? Do they usually wear silver or gold? Have you seen them wearing birthstones? Are they into bold, statement pieces or delicate, dainty items? Knowing their style will help you choose a piece of jewellery they love and will wear as it will fit their taste and current wardrobe.

And if you find yourself scratching your head when trying to figure out their style, you might need to become a bit of a detective and do some investigative work. Now, we don’t suggest that you go snooping through their belongings, but there may be a way to look for clues without crossing into stalker mode.

Maybe bring it up in conversation. For example, “I love that necklace you have with the pink birthstone – where did you get it?”. When they start talking about it, they’ll tell you why they bought it, or who gave it to them, and what they love about it. You can also find out if they have other pieces to match it.

If you can, have a look at their jewellery collection. Look at what types of jewellery they already own. Do they have lots of rings or bracelets? Are there gaps in their collection? For example, do they own a bracelet that would pair nicely with an initial necklace? Knowing what they own will help you choose a piece that compliments their collection.

Also, check to see if they have pierced ears and what length necklaces they wear. Are they a gold, silver or rose gold person? Or do they wear both? Sometimes people will be strictly one or the other to complement their skin colouring.

Finding the answers to these questions will help you narrow your selection and increase your chance of choosing a personalised piece of jewellery they’ll love.

What’s the occasion?

The next thing to consider is the occasion. Is the piece of jewellery a gift for a special event, such as an anniversary or birthday? Are you buying a thank-you gift for your bridesmaids? Do you want to show mum how much you love her on Mother’s Day with a necklace with her initials that she will treasure forever? Or perhaps a thoughtful gift for a friend to show them you care.

Is the gift for a new mum? What better way to celebrate this joyous and wonderful occasion than with a piece of customisable jewellery that will become a keepsake like our Mama Baby Bear Necklace? And you can make the gift personalised by adding the initial of bub.

Whatever the occasion, choosing a gift that has sentimental value and is tied to the event makes it one that they will cherish forever. For example, a birthstone necklace, initial jewellery that represents the receiver, or a symbol that holds special meaning to you both and the occasion on which the gift was given, makes it an everlasting treasure.

Let’s get personal.

Think about their personality. Jewellery can be a great way to express a person’s personality, interests, or even sense of humour. Consider choosing a piece of jewellery that reflects their interests. For example, someone who loves flowers might appreciate our Personalised Wildflower Bouquet Necklace.

What meaning do you want to convey?

What is the meaning behind the gift? What do you want the gift to say? “I love you”, “I’m proud of you”, “Thank you”, “I appreciate what you have done for me”, or “I value our relationship”. Choose the gift that best represents the meaning you wish to convey. For example, an initial necklace with both yours and their first initial might represent the bond between you.

Take your time.

Don’t rush into buying a piece of jewellery. Take your time to think about what your special someone would like and what would suit the occasion. Give yourself plenty of time to place the order, and for it to be made and delivered. If it’s for a special occasion, you don’t want to be stressed about it arriving on time.

Add your personal touch.

After you have selected the perfect piece of personalised jewellery, considering style and material, it’s time to add that special touch with an engraving, a gemstone, or both. This will create a piece that is uniquely theirs – making it much more special.

Shop at a reputable jeweller.

Choosing a jeweller with a good reputation and good reviews is important. Make sure the jewellery is made from high-quality materials to ensure a long and beautiful life. It also means that the jewellery can be worn by people with sensitive skin and is durable enough to be worn in the shower and at the gym without the need to take it off.

Don’t neglect the packaging.

One of the great things about buying a piece of jewellery as a gift to send to someone is that it’s easily shipped. But if it’s going to be shipped, you need to know that the packaging in which it is sent is beautiful and befits the gift. The packaging also reflects the thought and care that went into the gift. Make sure you purchase the jewellery from someone who puts as much care and attention into the packaging as you would.

There you have it, your guide to choosing the perfect piece of personalised jewellery for that special someone. Considering all these things, you’ll ensure that your gift is a piece that looks gorgeous on the receiver (and gets compliments). A gift that is loved and provides meaningful memories. The perfect gift!
