Most women love jewellery. Jewellery doesn't necessarily have to cost vast fortunes; there are numerous "budget" ranges available. However, what you actually choose to give is very important indeed.
When buying jewellery for the object of your affection, be certain to bear the following in mind:

Jewellery Buying Tips

Style: Does your lady prefer modern, plain, ethnic, feminine or vintage styles?

Likes & Dislikes: Does she love earrings but not jangly bracelets? Does she love necklaces but never wear earrings?

Types of Precious Metal: Does she prefer gold, white gold, platinum or silver?

Allergies: This is especially important for buying earrings as some metals some can make ears very sore; buy ones with surgical posts instead.

Gem and stone favourites: Try match stones to the colour of her eyes, her birth sign or to suit the occasion.

Earrings: Don't make the common "blokey" mistake of buying clip-on earrings for a woman with pierced ears, and vice-versa.

Hair: Stud earrings are suitable for cropped hairstyles; they will be hidden by longer hair.

Necklaces: The less well endowed can wear choker style necklaces, while "V" shapes flatter a larger bust.

Bracelets and Watches: Chunkier styles of bracelet and watch suit larger wrists, but more delicate wrists need finer straps and bands.

When buying jewellery, a fundamental consideration is the gem or stone you choose. An alphabetical guide to the significant points of the most popular gemstones:

Amethyst
  • The birthstone for Aquarius and the month of February.
  • A rich deep purple stone is a sign of quality.
Aquamarine
  • The birthstone for Pisces and the month of March.

  • An aquamarine necklace is a great gift from a groom to his bride on the day of their wedding, since it brings a calming effect to the new couple on their stressful and most important day.

  • Aquamarine earrings are believed to bring love and affection.
Diamond
  • The birthstone for Aries, the month of April and 60th Wedding Anniversaries.
  • Suitable for any occasion and any jewellery item, especially engagement rings.
  • There are four key points to understanding the quality and hence value of a diamond.
Those with the best combination of Cut, Clarity, Carat weight and Colour are the earth's rarest and most valuable.

Emerald
  • The birthstone for Taurus, the month of May and 55th Wedding Anniversary.
  • Symbolizes love and success.
  • The ancients associated Emerald with the Greek goddess Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. It was said to protect lovers from unfaithfulness.
Opal
  • The birthstone for Libra and the month of October.
  • The Victorians gave opals as wedding presents, as a symbol of hope, happiness and truth.
  • Opal comes from the Latin word 'opalus' which means, "to see a change in colour."
  • Chemically, opal is hydrated silica, similar to quartz. The size of the silica bubbles determines the colour and 'fire' of the stone.
  • The vast majority of opals come from Australia.
  • They range in colour from black (most precious) to pale blue (less expensive).
  • They can be bought as solid stones or in slices (doublets or triplets) attached to backings to make the stone look more for less money.
  • They come in so many different variations it is important to buy from a reputable and certificated dealer. Web sites are full of helpful information to enable you to buy a good quality opal.
Pearls
  • The birthstone for Gemini and the month of June 30th Wedding Anniversaries.
  • An organic substance classed alongside precious gems.
  • They are very flattering to the tone of most women's skin, so they are a perennial favourite (especially in bridal jewellery) even if only in a pair of simple ear studs.
  • Most natural pearls come from the oyster, but conch and fresh water mussels also produce natural pearls.
  • The oriental pearls have a different lustre and sheen from freshwater pearls. To tell the difference between a real pearl and an artificial one, grip them lightly between the teeth and rub the surface along the edge of a tooth. The artificial pearl feels smooth but the real pearl feels gritty.
  • Good for bridal jewellery, wedding day gifts, best for earrings and necklaces.
Ruby
  • The birthstone for Cancer, the month of July and 40th Wedding Anniversaries.
  • Good for all jewellery items.
  • Rubies are the most valuable gemstone in the world after diamonds.
  • The word comes from the Greek 'ruber' meaning red.
Sapphire
  • The birthstone for Virgo, the month of September and 45th Wedding Anniversaries.
  • Sapphire's blue is associated with such emotions as kindness, harmony and fidelity.
  • Sapphire is a popular engagement ring choice.

Hopefully, by following these guidelines, you will collect huge quantities of "brownie points" from the object of your affection or lust (or indeed both!)
