The arrival of Christmas entails a (frantic) search for gifts. Although, for some people, the choice of the perfect gift is presented as a matter of fact, for others, it can become a real puzzle.
This search is complicated by very personal gifts, which essentially depend on the style of the person being gifted. Perfumes, clothing and above all jewelry, are handy gifts but also difficult. Several experts give us some advice to get the latest ones right and not disappoint.
Choose a timeless jewel
«One of the keys for a piece of jewelery to become essential is that it be a timeless design that time does not pass by. In this way, you will never tire of wearing it and it will become one of your favorites to wear both on a day-to-day basis and on a more special occasion.
In this case, it is best to avoid colors and opt for smooth pieces or with colorless stones such as diamonds or quartz, for example», they explain to us from Joyas Antiguas Sardinero, a firm born in 1998 in Santander as the realization of the dream of its founder, Pilar Lobato, a professional with great passion and knowledge of the world of antique jewelry.
Some jewels, such as earrings, are always a hit: «the classic gold earrings are an essential and the key piece with which you should start building your ideal jewelery box. They go with everything and can be worn on both formal and informal occasions,” say the Joys experts.
Original and exclusive, for jewelry lovers
«Surprising a true jewelery lover is not an easy task, quite the opposite. If these people are characterized by something, it is because they have known all types of rings for centuries, all natural stones that can be found in a jewel or the closing forms of the earrings, For example.
For this reason, in these cases we must investigate a little more, go beyond a simple piece and give away a treasure, a second life, a jewel with a story behind it”.
The sets, the most complete option
«If what you want is to make a most complete gift, then you must choose to search for a setEither ring and earrings, one of the most classic, or brooch and bracelet, for more exclusivity.
In the case of jewelry vintage It's not always easy to find a complete outfit but you can create your own by choosing two matching pieces that can be worn together or separately."
Attentive to your manufacturing process
The choice must also be, as far as possible, responsible. Some firms have demonstrated their commitment to sustainability. After years of refinement and arduous research, the Customima firm has managed to create diamonds grown in laboratories, indistinguishable from natural ones and that are chemically identical.
“It is not about obtaining synthetic diamonds, but created ones. This nuance is important because the origin of the materials is the same: carbon”, explains the founder of Customima, Susana Fuentes. This is why they are not synthetic products as such since the quality is the same or higher in many cases but its price is 50% cheaper than a diamond extracted directly from the mine. “Diamonds are created in our laboratories partners only using the right and necessary energyTherefore, the carbon footprint is minimal”.
