Lovepods Red Topaz Yellow Gold Earrings

Valentine’s Day is truly made for boyfriends and girlfriends … gifts focused on nothing other than how much you love each other are a great way to cement your relationship. When it comes to your choice of gift, though, you want something that will be permanent. Chocolate gets digested, and flowers go dry – but jewelry stays as beautiful as they day you bought it for many years. Today we’re looking at some favorite jewelry gifts for girlfriends on Valentine’s Day!

Sapphire and Diamond Pendant

Citizen Ladies Pink Dial Eco-Drive Watch

Balance Diamond Pendant with Chain

Heart Filigree Aquamarine Pendant

Pandora Diamond Flowers Gold and Silver Ring

For new relationships, the color of love is more often red (fiery and passionate!) than the more demure pink of affection and friendship. The Pandora Lovepods earrings at the beginning of the post feature red topaz – quite an unusual stone, with an innate fire but a third of the price tag of similarly sized rubies. All the Lovepods pieces are made to last (hopefully like your relationship!), from 18ct yellow gold. If you like the colour scheme but not the style, there are also mid-sized and long drop earrings featuring red topazes, and you can find red topaz alongside other stones in necklaces and rings throughout the collection.

The sapphire and diamond pendant at right is perfect for Valentine’s Day, because it keeps the focus on just the two of you! One of you can be the lower sapphire, supporting the other one, or the upper sapphire, helping the lower one climb heavenwards! The design is wonderfully elegant. The two blue sapphires have a combined weight of 0.6ct, and the six white brilliant cut diamonds in the feature piece at the top weigh 0.07ct combined. The base metal is 9ct white gold, which means you can splurge on gemstones while still keeping the total cost down.

If you want to give your girlfriend something for Valentine’s Day, but don’t like all the uber-romantic standard symbols like love hearts and flowers, the Citizen watch at right is a beautiful but very subtle Valentine’s themed gift. The band is white-tone stainless steel, and the pink dial is mother of pearl with a sweet shimmer. The watch isn’t only about good looks though – it features Citzen’s Eco-Drive technology, which means the watch can run for over 6 months without sunlight or battery changes, on solar energy alone. It is also splash resistant (though not suitable for skinnydipping together!).

Hot Diamonds are another range that makes some great subtle Valentine’s gifts. Every one of their pieces incorporates diamonds, but they are almost invariably tiny 0.01ct white brilliant cut pieces and are very affordable. The main attraction is the sultry flowing silver – very sexy! This pendant is called ‘Balance’ – very appropriate for a relationship . It comes with its own chain, 45cm long, and ships for free, so what you see on the price tag is exactly what you get.

The aquamarine pendant at right doesn’t have any of the standard red or pink Valentine’s colors, doesn’t have any flowers – and you really have to look to notice it! But it has a privacy and delicacy that can be a great expression of how some relationships actually evolve. If you and your girlfriend share a very intimate and delicate relationship, the filigree, faint aquamarine and white gold of this pendant make the perfect gift for expressing your love. The aquamarine is quite well sized, at 5mm across, and this is one of the most budget-friendly Valentine’s gifts around.

Flowers are for lovers, and diamonds are forever – and this Pandora ring incorporates both of them! While traditional wedding-style banded rings might be misinterpreted, this ring just tells your girl that you love her … without implying anything that you haven’t yet talked about! The main band is sterling silver and around 10mm wide – the flowers encasing the brilliant cut diamonds are 14ct gold. There is actually quite a range of Pandora jewelry with this motif, so if you want a ready-made gift idea for her birthday or even Christmas, check out the related products once you click through.

There are plenty of different things that you could get your girl this Valentine’s Day – but jewelry is the hands-down winner for just about every girlfriend! Keep browsing now, either in the Valentine’s Day gift ideas section or the Gift Ideas for Girlfriends pages. And let your self grin in anticipation of how much she’ll love it .
