4 Reasons Why Jewelry is the Ultimate Gift
Posted in Uncategorized on November 28, 2021.
Jewelry may not be a gift as old as time, but it does date back over 25,000 years. Before there were cut diamonds, we had gemstones, and before that, we had fish bones and seashells.
Coming back to the present, you’ll have noticed jewelry’s popularity as a present has not waned one bit. In today’s blog, we’ll learn the secret to jewelry’s enduring success.
1. Jewelry is Everlasting
Our bodies may be mortal, but our feelings last forever. Why not express the latter with something that lasts just as long?
Let’s take diamonds as an example. Although we don’t know how long they might take to form naturally, we do know that their staying power is infinite-ish. They get passed down from generation to generation without changing and represent your unchanging feelings even as you grow older.

2. Jewelry Doesn’t Discriminate
Jewelry is one of the few luxuries that doesn’t discriminate between genders. It’s available for both men and women, although the former may lean more towards metals than gems.
In any case, you’ll find bracelets, necklaces, pendants, rings, cufflinks, and even earrings for both men and women at an Irish jeweler.

3. Jewelry is Symbolic
Jewelry can serve as:
- An intimate message.
- A shared joke.
- An important milestone.
In other words, jewelry is symbolic, and by giving it to your loved one in a unique shape, style, stone, and metal, you’re sending them a very specific message.
For instance, gifting ruby jewelry on a ruby anniversary would be sending a message of a 40-year love between a couple. On the other hand, the message behind a Claddagh ring is more varied, for it could mean either love, loyalty, or friendship, depending on your relationship dynamics.

4. Jewelry Immortalizes a Moment
Jewelry might be the closest thing to immortal we’ve got, but it also has the power to immortalize a moment without the help of a camera.
In many cases, jewelry is bought for the express purpose of engagement, marriage, or a similar commitment. The moment your recipient gets their first look at the jewelry item is one you can never forget, for it may very well be the time:
- You got down on one knee.
- They said ‘yes’.
- They said ‘I do’.
