With so little time left for Diwali in 2022, do you think you have left getting gifts a little too late? You are probably scrambling around for ideas, and your list of people to give gifts to, is also quite long. Diwali is such a special occasion and delights us with colour and joy at every age. There was a time when most families bought special items only on birthdays, Diwali, or Christmas, depending on their faith.
Now, we live in a very different time, a time of consumerism and buying clothes and jewellery is no longer set only for special days. Even so, we find great joy in giving gifts, and Diwali is no exception. Whether it is for your sibling or a loved one, or your mom, jewellery gifts can seem easy enough. However, the choices may be overwhelming. That’s why we are here with a few intriguing ideas, so you have an easier time picking out the right gifts for those you love. But before we get into that, let’s talk about how you decide on the type of jewellery you think would be best.
Pay attention to the recipient’s taste.
Jewellery as a gift is typically given to someone you know. It doesn’t come under the generic corporate gifts but more for someone with whom you share a personal connection. It is unlikely that you have not noticed the type of rings, earrings, bangles, or necklaces they wear or comment on. It should give you an idea of their preferences, making it easier to pick the ones they will be happy to receive. If you are unsure, you can always pick their brains by asking them directly. You may find they love gold jewellery, have a favourite gemstone, or prefer wearing white gold, silver, or platinum. There are too many choices regardless of the metal and gemstones or diamonds.
Now we will explore a few jewellery gift ideas, starting with earrings.
Yellow gold hoops or drop earrings
Women can never have enough earrings in their collection. You can gift wrap a simple pair of gold earrings like the Whimsy Gold Drop Earrings or the Austere Gold Hoop Earrings.
White gold stud earrings
If you think a more colourful pair will be appreciated, you can go for the Pave Square Gemstone Stud Earrings. It is made in 18 KT white gold and synthetic rubies.
Silver earrings
Some of us love silver jewellery. The choice is simple if your best friend, sister, or lady love is often seen wearing silver. You can close your eyes and pick out silver earrings, studs, drops, or hoops, and you won’t go wrong. The Silver Lotus Hoop Earrings and the Silver Enamelled Earrings both make excellent Diwali gifts.
Solitaire earrings
If you are ready to splurge because it is a special Diwali this year, you may look at solitaires, especially for your heartthrob! Nothing will thrill your partner as much as the Heartthrob Solitaire Studs.
You will also find pendants and necklaces that make great Diwali gifts. Let’s look at a few here:
Gold and diamond pendants
The idea behind choosing pendants is that you may have noticed them wearing a few different pendants over time. But pendants are always welcome. You can go with the Nova Lattice Diamond Pendant or stretch your Diwali budget with the beautiful Neely Inter-twisted Diamond Pendant.
Gold necklaces
You will be praised lavishly for the Praise Multiwear Gold Necklace. It is one of those pieces that will be worn daily, not just on Diwali.
Personalised necklace
A personalised necklace will be equally appreciated showing that you have put in some thought to make it more meaningful. The Necklace can have their initials or full name in the language of choice, giving it that extra love. You can choose the Forever Love Personalised Gold Necklace for your girlfriend, and to an artist friend of yours, you can gift the Artsy Alphabet S Gold Necklace.
Antique jewellery for the classic look
Many women find antique jewellery most appealing. If you know that antique earrings or necklaces will be a hit, you must look at the Antique Srasta Step Earrings and add them to the matching Antique Stambh Pole Necklace. Both add colour and style to the wearer and will suit Diwali festivities like none other.
Women love their bangles and bracelets.
You will rarely see women without something wrapped around their wrists, and Diwali is no exception. When they take out the new silk saree or lehenga to wear on Diwali 2022, they will also show off their unique gifts from you. The Essentia Diamond Bracelet is made in 14 KT yellow gold and is a favourite among many.
Don’t miss the Minimalistic Aztec Gold Bracelet if budget is a concern. It is simple, chic, and inexpensive. And if you are looking for a gift for your friend’s daughter or your young sibling, Sheen Link Adjustable Gold Bracelet or the Petite Evil Eye Gold Bracelet will do nicely.
While these are only a few pointers on what to look for in CaratLane’s jewellery selection, you may be inspired to choose something else. Generally, Diwali gifts comprise sweet boxes, but they don’t stay much past the day. Buying jewellery gifts will keep you in their thoughts forever. Every time they see the gift, they will think fondly of you. What more can you ask for?
