Gifting Occasions
Although an engagement is a classic occasion for diamond and jewellery gifting, any woman will tell you there are a number of other occasions for which a sparkling gift would also be very well received.
Anniversary
In November 2007, Queen Elizabeth II of England celebrated her sixtieth (or Diamond) wedding anniversary with Prince Philip. Although a classic occasion for a diamond piece, with diamonds being more affordable and smaller pieces being widely available, it is a very popular choice for any anniversary. Traditionally, the tenth anniversary is the first anniversary for which a significant diamond piece is given.
Birth of a Child
The colloquial term for this is the “Push Present”. New mothers deserve a great gift for their achievement in bringing a new life into the world. Some clients like to purchase a blue sapphire piece if they have a boy and a pink sapphire piece for a girl. If you are uncertain which to choose, a diamond is never an unwelcome gift!
Valentine’s Day
Popular choices for this holiday are pieces set with rubies, pink sapphires, heart motifs, and of course, heart-shaped diamonds. After all, it is believed that Cupid’s arrows were tipped with diamonds!
Birthday
From a fantasy pendant to a classic pair of diamond stud earrings, birthdays are a wonderful occasion to gift someone with a truly special piece. A well-appointed pair of cufflinks will have him wearing your heart on his sleeves for years to come!
