SPECIAL GIFTS






Do you know someone getting ready to celebrate a special anniversary or birthday? Or perhaps you have a child or grandchild getting ready to graduate from high school or college? Jewelry is a wonderful, meaningful and lasting tribute to those special occasions. No other gift is so packed with so much emotion. It would be our pleasure to assist you in selecting the perfect gift for the person you wish to honor!

Here are just a few recommendations for those of you who are looking for the perfect gift:

GRADUATIONS:

Monogrammed cufflinks, tie tack or money clip for him; monogrammed necklace, earrings, bracelet or ring for her. Available in sterling, 14k gold or a combination of both metals. Engraved signet rings in either white or yellow gold are also very popular, as well as engraved wristwatches or Jefferson cups. 

BAPTISMS, CONFIRMATIONS AND FIRST COMMUNIONS

Some of the most popular gifts are crosses, as you might guess. However, most of the gifts for baptisms include engraved items such as silver and pewter baby cups, silver baby spoons, comb and brush sets and the like. Confirmation and First Communion are usually commemorated with a small, engraved piece of jewelry such as a charm on a necklace or tie tack for a young man. Perhaps this is a good time to present a young lady with her first charm bracelet, usually in sterling silver. Another great idea is to present a new baby girl with a Princesse Pearl Add-a-Pearl necklace. If you add one inch of pearls per year as her birthday or holiday gift, she’ll have a lovely, perfectly matched 18” strand in time for her high school graduation!


ANNIVERSARIES:

Diamonds rule this category, however, some gentlemen prefer to choose a piece from one of our stylish colored gemstone collections.  This way, they can add to the collection at other times during the year such as a Valentine’s Day pendant and birthday earrings to go with that anniversary ring!
