Diamonds are a Guys best Friend
Giving jewelry to your partner has always been a sure way to show off your passion. On occasions like X-mas, wedding anniversaries and Valentine’s Day, men run to the jewelry store for something shiny and costly. Imagine how much more appreciated and effective these gift would be if presented without an ‘official’ reason linked to it. You may want to give your husband or wife expensive jewelry for no specified reason, other than love?
Diamonds have always been popular if you’re considering looking for jewellery, while other precious stones or simply silver and gold come a close second. You quite likely know that for each calendar month has a gemstone that symbolizes it, and those gemstones each have a symbolic meaning. If you really want to impress your partner, choose your jewelry and stone for it’s significance to a particular month (birthday or anniversary for example) or for another more personal meaning.
Here’s a brief look at the gemstone for each month and their symbolism.

Gone are the days of ” a way to mans’ heart is via his belly” – or are they?
As with any gift from the heart or bank balance, presentation should matter as much as the gift. How would you feel if your companion just threw you the diamond ring and said ” got you this?”. Now, let’s suppose they went to some amount of effort to offer it to you? There are motion pictures and personal stories everywhere about how people have presented a special piece of jewelry to their loved one. Believe it or not, food is one of the most favorite techniques! Individuals tend to place rings in champagne or other clear beverages or bake it into their special person’s favorite pie or cake. What is often missed of these stories is the guidelines you need to take. Make sure your partner doesn’t actually eat your gift, or worse, choke on it. Next, check with your jeweler about any physical precautions.
Supprisingly true but some gemstones are not as robust as we envision, pearls dropped in champagne will in fact dissolve and if you placed a ruby inside a pie and baked it, it may even crack!
Giving the gift of a lifetime is a sizeable investment, and you shouldn’t enter into it casually. Do your research, make sure you know what you’re purchasing, and how to make a good decision.
