Jewellery Gift Guide

Firstly think about the material a jewellery gift is made from. Does the person you’re buying for prefer gold, silver or other metals as the main material in their jewellery?

Do they prefer coloured stones, clear stones or natural gemstones for decoration? You can work this out by looking at the kind of jewellery they usually wear, or for more important or costly pieces, speaking to close friends or family.

Even if you don't choose the exact material the person you are buying for often wears, you can still choose items that evoke those materials or have a similar look and feel.

For example, if they wear a platinum wedding ring, you could choose silver or white gold earrings. But if they wear gold earrings, you could choose a gold plated bracelet or a mixed metal piece with some gold highlights. Having said that, it's also ok to mix and match these days!

Check out our metals guide and gemstones guide for more information.

Another major factor to consider is the style and design. Should you choose fine, delicate jewellery or something bigger and bolder? Do you opt for simple design and decoration or something a touch more elaborate? 

Once again, consider the preferences of the person you’re buying for by looking at the type of jewellery they usually wear or admire. Even if you haven't seen them wearing it, think about jewellery they may have complimented for hints of what they'd like.

Another option is to consider a design that has a symbolic or historical significance to the two of you, or a personalised engraved jewellery gift.

At Niche Jewellery, we stock a large selection of beautiful jewellery for every occasion. If you’re unsure what style of jewellery to choose, take a look at our leading brands for inspiration for the kind of jewellery the person you’re buying for might wear or aspire to wear.

Think about whether you should buy a ring, necklace, bracelet or earrings - or indeed a charm based or stackable jewellery type where new pieces can be future gifts. 

Rings and necklaces typically have the greatest romantic meaning, so if you’re buying for your wife, partner or girlfriend, these are definitely worth considering, especially for important occasions such as anniversaries or milestone birthdays. However, any jewellery type could be appropriate, depending on the occasion.

Earrings and bracelets are often more suitable as gifts for close friends and relatives. However, these are not hard-and-fast rules so do consider what type of jewellery the person you’re buying for wears most frequently, and feel free to deviate from these suggestions! For example, if the person you are buying from loves to wear different rings, a lovely cocktail ring or set of stackable rings is definitely a good choice.

Also don't forget in a addition to our jewellery ranges, you can also find Swarovski Crystal decorations and accessories which might be more suited as a gift.
