5 great reasons to give jewellery as a Christmas gift

If the notion of gift giving has you fresh out of ideas, why not hand out some bling?

Here are five great reasons why jewellery makes a truly special Christmas gift.

You don’t know where to turn, what with all the Christmas preparations ahead of you? Are you racking your brain trying to find the perfect gift? Giving jewellery as a Christmas gift is the best way there is to punctuate the holiday season.

Why give jewellery as a Christmas gift?

Here are five good reasons:

1. Jewellery as a Christmas gift always makes people happy. Everyone likes to receive a piece of jewellery that was chosen carefully by a loved one.
2. Even though jewellery has always been a perfect gift, it still continues to surprise and move people.
3. To express your love, your friendship, your tenderness, your recognition or any other sentiment, there isn’t anything better than a piece of jewellery. It leaves a lasting impression.
4. You only need to have a date, a word or a sentence engraved to turn the piece of jewellery you are giving into a unique and personal gift.
5. Rings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets, earrings and watches: there is a piece of jewellery for every taste, style and budget.

To whom should you gift jewellery?

Give jewellery to everyone on your list. It goes without saying that you wouldn’t give the same type of jewellery to a man, woman, child, friend or beloved.

• A heart-shaped pendant could be perfect for your mother, but it wouldn’t be appropriate for your secretary.

As well, you should respect the style of the person you are buying for. In other words, don’t choose an item according to your own likes and dislikes. Instead, choose it according to the tastes of the recipient.

• Is her style mostly classic, or is she a fashionista? Does she have pierced ears? Does she prefer gold or silver? Is she allergic to certain metals?

If you give jewellery that is decorated with natural stones, try to learn a bit about their meaning. Some people believe that stones and gems possess particular virtues or powers.

• It is believed that amethyst improves your sleep, while rose quartz is the gem of universal love.
• Happy shopping and Merry Christmas.
