A Lifetime of Jewelry: What Pieces to Give For Certain Special Occasions

Life is full of opportunities to give special gifts, and jewelry is the perfect gift to give. From rings to necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, there are plenty of choices when it comes to gifting jewelry. When you give someone something that they can keep forever, they can look at it and remember when they received it and what a momentous occasion it was.

Take a look at some of the important life events that are definitely worth marking with a beautiful piece of jewelry.

Birthdays

Even if you want to, you probably won’t be buying a piece of jewelry for every birthday. But for special birthdays like the 16th, 18th, 21st, or 50th, it makes sense to mark the occasion with a piece that will make the day even more special. 

Our choice: A custom-name necklace could be the perfect gift for an important birthday, or perhaps a beautiful tennis bracelet could be the right choice.

Cultural and Religious Milestones

There are lots of ways to celebrate coming of age across different cultures, religions, and societies. From religious occasions such as bat mitzvahs to cultural events like quinceañeras, these things deserve to be marked with a special gift. 

Our choice: You might consider choosing something traditional or that features something symbolic. For example, a cross pendant for confirmation could make a lovely gift.

Graduations

Graduating from any level of education is a major accomplishment. Education should be celebrated, and recognizing someone's hard work is always important. Whether it's a graduating from kindergarten, high school, or college, the right jewelry will help to make it memorable.

Our choice: There are several great options for graduation gifts, including necklaces, bracelets, and earrings.

Weddings

Weddings are undoubtedly one of life's most significant events, whether you're the one getting married or not. As well as engagement rings, some couples like to exchange wedding gifts. Equally, other family members or friends might give something special to the bride, like a stunning diamond bracelet. And even members of the bridal party deserve something to say thank you, like a lovely bracelet or pendant.

Birth of a Child

Growing your family is exciting, but it can be pretty exhausting too. New moms definitely deserve a treat to congratulate them, thank them, and show that they're loved and appreciated. 'Push presents' have become increasingly popular for new moms. 

Our choice: A personalized piece of jewelry could be the right choice like an eternity ring that shows your eternal love.

Career Milestones

Some big career milestones, like new jobs and promotions, are worth recognizing too. When she has something to celebrate, make sure you celebrate along with her.

Our choice: Stackable rings could be a fun way to mark different events along with someone's career.
