How To: Choosing Perfect Gift
For ages mankind has used jewelry as a form of self expression. No matter what gender you are, it’s likely you own at least a few necklaces, rings, bracelets, or even earrings. You have no doubt at some point in your life given it as a gift and received it as well. There are timeless pieces that hold significant meaning to many people.
One of the most significant pieces would be the ring, specifically engagement and wedding band. Popular metals are 24 carat gold, white gold, and platinum. The gem is most always a diamond. A diamond can be cut in several styles including brilliant, heart-shaped, solitaire, and round. The sentimental value of a wedding band dates back several centuries and the tradition will continue to carry on. [I:http://www.articlefield.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/IgorPauer14.jpg]
A necklace is worn around the neck like the name suggests. Some wear a plain chain of varying length and thickness, while others opt for hanging a charm on the chain. Mothers like to display the birthstones of their offspring, highschool sweethearts wear their boyfriend or girlfriend’s class ring on their chain, some more adventurous people will wear the tooth of a shark or animal bone in an edgy display of style.
Many choose to wear a matching bracelet with their ensemble. It is worn around the wrist. Some may be loose, some tight. They can be stacked and be worn several at a time, or just one solitaire piece. There are a lot of materials to consider for bracelets, from a precious metal to a simple piece of string.

Complete your statement pieces with a nice pair of earrings. Worn by both men and women in one or both ears, earrings come in several varieties. Large and small hoops, studs such as a gold ball or gemstone can be worn not only in the lobe of the ear, but also in the upper area of the cartilage. If the thought of a needle piercing your ear makes you squeamish you can go with a non piercing variety such as a clip or magnetic piece.
Choosing a gift for someone you love is easy if you consider buying gems or gold. The significance of giving jewelry as a gift is timeless. Choosing a precious stone or metal enforces the fact that you care enough for someone to invest in them by giving them a piece that is going to last forever.
Jewelry is an ageless ornament that will never go out of style. No matter what type you choose to adorn yourself or give to others, it has always been and always will be a wonderful gift not only to give but to receive. Expressing yourself has never been easier than putting on a pair of earrings or sporting a trendy new bracelet!
