One of my favorite parts of the holidays is giving gifts. There’s something so incredible about expressing love through a memorable gift. Yet finding the perfect treasures to give your loved ones can be quite a challenge, can’t it? It can be so hard to know what exactly might make someone’s heart sing. One gift which always succeeds is fine jewelry. There’s nothing quite so intimate, which commemorates our most priceless moments the same way jewelry does. At Yelton Fine Jewelers, we have the perfect selection for everyone on your holiday list. From stunning rings to splendid bracelets and more, I’m always thrilled to walk customers through our extensive collections, watching them discover jewelry that sparks joy. It’s in that spirit I decided to sit down and write a handy holiday gift guide, highlighting some of my favorite pieces, handcrafted by the best designers in the world.
La Vian
Renowned for their innovative approach to color, Le Vian’s designs blend a combination of exquisite gemstones, diamonds and gold. This Creme Brulee® Ring is a superb example. It features a dazzling 1 ½ carat Peach Morganite™ flanked by creamy Nude Diamonds™ set in delicious 14 Karat Strawberry (or rose) Gold®. If you can’t get enough La Vian (I know I can’t), this matching Creme Brulee® Pendant, also with a Peach Morganite™, Nude Diamonds™ and set in 14 Karat Strawberry Gold® is the perfect companion.
Hearts on Fire
Hearts on Fire travels all over the globe seeking only the rarest and most pristine diamonds. Their world-class collections consist of timeless styles and one-of-a-kind pieces that feature extraordinary cut diamonds. Their Signature Petal Bezel Pendant is one of my top picks. Crafted from luscious 18 Karat white gold, this gorgeous flower-shaped pendant blooms with 0.28 carats of Hearts on Fire diamonds. Another fantastic option is the Intermingle Single Right Hand Ring. With a graceful criss-cross pattern, dazzling diamonds are set in 18 Karat white gold.
Simon G.
Known for fine craftsmanship and elegance, Simon G. would be an exquisite addition to any jewelry box. These marvelous 18 Karat yellow gold hoop earrings feature a double line of shimmering white diamonds which will dazzle any occasion. Another item I’m particularly enchanted by is this 18 Karat white gold diamond pendant. With a chic fashion-forward design and 0.60 carats of sparkling diamonds, this pendant is dramatic and perfect for anyone who wants to turn heads.
Monica Rich Kosann
Monica Rich Kosann’s collections invite women to tell their unique stories and feel empowered through their designs. Her signature lockets combine both ideas by allowing personalization when you open them. This Petite Pinstripe Locket crafted of lustrous 18 Karat yellow gold would make a heart-warming holiday gift. So would this Sterling Silver and Two Tone Rectangular Locket, accented with handsome gold triangles.
Judith Ripka
Modern, sophisticated, luxurious … All these words come to mind when I think of Judith Ripka’s alluring collections. This brand allows you to wish, dream and keep life’s most precious moments close. I personally adore this regal Vienna Link Bangle Bracelet in 18 Karat yellow gold. It’s classic and fashionable no matter if it’s stacked or worn on its own. The Vienna Interlocking Ring is an impeccable companion. The textured 18 Karat yellow gold hoop links elegantly with a sterling silver clip to create a stylish statement piece.
Give Them Something In a Little Purple Box
