Oval Ruby Link

The nomination bracelet is Italy’s new sleek version of the charm bracelet … only very adult, and much more stylish than your childhood charm bracelets! One of the best things about the Nomination range is that it is unisex - these look just as modern and masculine on your male loved ones as the much plainer and less personalizable men’s jewelry. If you have recently discovered the joy of the Nomination range, and would like to share it with someone you love as a birthday gift this July, read on for some great suggestions!

Ruby is the birthstone for July, and its beautiful depths of red color and fine radiance forms a basis for our recommendations this month. There is an actual ruby link available for nomination bracelets, which is pictured at the beginning of the article. But with some lateral thinking and a little imagination, you will find many more than one link personalized to your July born buddy! For example, the gemstones section of the nomination page contains a couple of subsections - the natural semiprecious stones section, where you’ll find the ruby link, and the natural hard stones section. Under this latter category, you’ll find other beautiful red-colored stones, like red agares and corals. If you choose to go with one of these stones, you also have the option of buying a heart-cut stone - the softer stones are formed only into ovals or round shapes. The heart-cut red agare is shown above.

You’ll also find gemstone links under the dangle section - the ruby dangle, for July birthdays, is under the natural semiprecious stones section again. It is surprisingly affordable for such a sought-after and loved stone. You’ll also see the garnet link - while garnet is a similar color to rubies, they actually belong to January as a birthstone … and I’m not sure if January would like its stone being stolen!

Beautiful as they are, after you have exhausted all of the ruby and red stone options, you have to start using a little more imagination! This is where birthday gift buying can become fun If you are looking for a gift for someone born in July, they will either be a Cancerian or a Leo - Cancer ranges from the 1st to 22nd of July, and Leo takes up the rest of the month. A starsign can be an invaluable hint if you are absolutely stumped as to what sort of links your loved one will enjoy. Where Cancerians are usually sensitive, compassionate, resourceful and nurturing, Leos are quite often creative, independent, attention-loving and dramatic. But what does all that mean for their nomination bracelet … ?

The love section will be a great place to start for the Cancerian birthday boy or girl - they enjoy the warmth and security of their relationships, and love to be reminded that you will always be there for them! There are love sections in the enamel, enamel dangle, and gold categories - not to mention the heart-cut gemstone links like those shown earlier. You could go for something like this beautiful ‘Be Mine’ link, if you are buying a romantic gift, featuring subtle and gorgeous detailing on the hearts themselves. If you want something a little more colorful, or something a little more fun than romantic (more suitable for family members), you could go for this geometric heart link, found under the enamel-love section.

Leos, on the other hand, will love anything a little off the wall and creative, or that expresses drama, and shouts ‘Look at me!’. It is easiest to be dramatic and creative when you can include color in your link, so the best place to start looking is the enamel section. There is the dedicated enamel section, and also the enamel section under the dangle category. For something a little different, go for the mermaid link pictured below, under ‘Fun’ in the enamel category. Or, if you are looking for a present for a male Leo, the racecar link underneath brings all the drama and excitement of the racing circuit to his very own wrist … no matter how boring the meeting might be! Find it under Sports in the Enamel category.

If you don’t see the perfect present for your July-born loved one here, don’t despair - we have recently added quite a number of new links to the range, making each category and subcategory truly expansive.
