Graduations
Graduation gifts suit pieces that mark adulthood and new beginnings, such as simple chains, studs, and engraved bands.
Engraving the graduation year or school makes a simple piece into a milestone piece without adding cost.
Career Milestones
New jobs, promotions, and retirements suit pieces that suit work life, such as watches, simple rings, and understated necklaces.
For retirements, choose pieces that suit leisure and celebration, since work constraints no longer apply.
New Homes and Family
New homes suit gifts for the household as well as for individuals, since the milestone belongs to the household.
Births, adoptions, and family milestones suit birthstone and engraved pieces that carry names and dates.
Choosing Well
Match the gift to the next chapter, not only to the day. A piece for a new job should suit the new workplace.
Engraving, birthstones, and milestone materials all strengthen a gift, but the recipient taste still decides whether it will be worn.
