Bracelets: Bracelets are always a great gift since they are versatile enough to go with almost anything. Since they are worn on the wrist not the neck, they aren’t dependent on the neckline of an outfit, and they can both dress up a casual outfit or complete a formal one. If you decide to choose a bracelet, we suggest purchasing a tennis bracelet, which is a staple luxury item, or a charm bracelet. Charm bracelets give you the perfect opportunity to begin cultivating a charm collection that is special, and can give you many future gift opportunities. If you want to send a more serious message, go with a diamond tennis bracelet. Rings: We generally advise avoiding rings for girlfriends unless you want to propose, but they make excellent gifts for daughters, mothers, wives and other women in your life. Regardless of your relationship, a ring can be a great gift if you select the right one. Gemstone cocktail rings are one of the most fashionable pieces of jewelry available at the moment, so start by choosing a gemstone that she will like and you are on a great path. Another option as far as rings go are Sterling Silver rings. These are slightly less expensive, making them perfect for the gift-giver on a budget, but still have a natural beauty that is coveted. Necklaces: Necklaces are a staple jewelry piece, and are available in an endless amount of styles and prices. There are many beautiful heart pendant necklaces available for this holiday, but we also recommend considering a simple white or yellow gold necklace with solitaire diamond pendant. These are beautiful and timeless, and will go with any outfit. Birthstones: Birthstone jewelry is a popular item any time of year, and can be especially great if the woman or girl you are buying a gift for was born around Valentine’s Day. If you start with the stone, you’ve considerably narrowed the pieces you are considering purchasing, and the next step is to decide whether you want to buy her birthstone pendant earrings, a bracelet, a necklace or another item with her stone. Estate Jewelry: If the woman or girl you are looking to buy jewelry for isn’t particularly fond of expensive pieces, you can always look at antique stores or estate sales for vintage pieces. These are often ornate and are much higher quality than similarly styled options from cheaper stores, but still make a statement and are less formal than delicate pearl or diamond items. Raw Jewelry: Another unique take on this classic gift is to purchase stones or metals that are unpolished. This gives the jewelry a raw, beautiful, natural feel and look. For instance, gold nugget jewelry is a great option. The gold looks raw and has a unique shape.
Alaska Jewelry Bio Alaska Jewelry began as a gallery in Sitka, Alaska in October 1990, and has been run by Iowa natives Chris and Tamara Fondell ever since its first day.

Summary Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, meaning it’s time to find that perfect piece of jewelry for the girl or woman in your life. Whether you choose a delicate diamond piece or a simpler colored stone jewelry item, it is hard to go wrong with such a classic gift. We recommend considering diamond tennis bracelets, charm bracelets, gemstone cocktail rings, raw jewelry pieces like gold nugget earrings and simple necklaces.
