Choosing Jewellery as a Gift

A gift of jewellery is kept for years, so it is worth choosing well. When you are unsure, these four never go wrong.

Four safe choices

• A pendant. A fine chain adjusts to any neck, so size is never a worry.
• Pearl studs. They go with work clothes, evening wear and everything between.
• A bracelet. Choose one with an adjustable clasp.
• Prayer beads. A thoughtful gift for Ramadan and Eid, for men and women alike.

If you choose a ring

Borrow a ring she already wears on the same finger and bring it with you, or use our guide to measuring at home. And keep the receipt, in case she needs another size.
