Diamonds are always a winner when it comes to spoiling the special lady in your life. After all, diamonds are a girl’s best friend…

Emeralds & Pears

We are loving the emerald and pear shapes this festive season and our Christmas diamond collection features some stunning pieces. We have beautiful art deco inspired matching sets so you can treat the special someone in your life to twice the luxury.

Pear and emerald shaped diamonds are currently on-trend and we love how pear-shaped rings elongate the finger. Pear diamonds are a combination of round and marquise cuts in order to give a teardrop-shaped diamond. Emerald diamonds are a popular choice and they are great for showcasing the diamond’s original clarity and making its inclusions and colour more apparent.

Diamond fashions

If you’re not looking to propose this Christmas but want to treat a loved one to some stunning diamond pieces, our collection features a great range of diamond fashion jewellery.

Our diamond jewellery showcases a variety of stylish designs that are perfect for sentimental gifting. From diamonds earrings to diamond necklaces and bracelets, each of our pieces are timeless, elegant and something they can treasure forever.

What better gift than versatile jewellery pieces. Our diamond jewellery will add extra sparkle when heading out or can be a subtle but stunning look for a casual day out.

Christmas Gifts to Treasure Forever

Timekeeping isn’t everyone’s strong points, but if you gift them a watch this year then they have no excuse!

Omega Ladies watch

Luxury watches

If you really want to spoil someone and are looking for a luxury timepiece, you won’t get any better than a Swiss-made watch. Here at Ernest Jones, we have a variety of iconic Swiss brands including TAG Heuer, Longines, and Tissot to name just a few.

Our TAG Heuer range offers a variety of models, whether it’s the Formula 1 line or the undeniable class of Carrera, a TAG watch will make the ultimate gift. As for Longines, the brand was initially founded in 1832 and they are experts in the watchmaking craft, making any receiver a happy one. With a Gucci watch, you can be certain of receiving prestigious class and undeniable quality, making it a gift you won’t regret giving (you might just want one for yourself too!).

Our luxury watches collection features a range of other brands such as Tissot, Rado, Tudor and many others that all offer both style and class and are guaranteed to provide excellent and accurate timekeeping.

Tissot designer watch

Fashion watches

If you have a slightly lower budget, then you can’t go wrong with a new timepiece from our collection of fashion watches. Again, we offer a variety of top-class brands such as Casio, Olivia Burton and many more.

Each of our designer watches all come with an excellent reputation and will definitely create a smile on Christmas Day. A watch is a meaningful gift, after all, it’s going to be something they wear every day, meaning it will be a daily reminder of the person who bought them it. They’re durable and long-lasting, meaning with the right care this could be a gift that stays with them for a long time to come, making it that little bit more special.

A watch is also a great way to show someone how much you know them. Watches come in all different shapes, sizes and styles meaning you can really match one to the receiver’s personality. Whether it’s a delicate watch, something with sparkle, a leather or stainless-steel strap – your options are endless and it’s a perfect opportunity to highlight how much they mean to you.

Jewellery To Treasure Forever 

The perfect piece of sentimental luxury gifting: an exquisite piece of jewellery they can treasure forever. This Christmas season, Ernest Jones presents an extensive selection of opulent jewellery, encompassing a wide spectrum of styles and designs. You'll find an abundance of choices, ensuring that your holiday gift selection is nothing short of extraordinary. Whether you're looking for men's jewellery or women's jewellery, no matter the recipient, there is a timeless treasure waiting to be unwrapped and cherished this Christmas.

Know their style

Just like we mentioned with watches, gifting a loved one a piece of jewellery is the perfect opportunity to show them how much you know them. With so many styles, designs, and jewellery pieces to choose from it’s hard to know what’s right. Therefore, it’s important you truly nail down their preferred style so you can give them something they’ll love this year.

If you know jewellery is going to be their gift this year, drop a few subtle hints to find out what styles they like, or check out their jewellery box to get an idea for yourself. Are they a silver or platinum person? Do they prefer gold colours or perhaps rose gold? Do they like diamonds and statement pieces, or do they tend to choose something more subtle and understated? These are all the questions you need to be thinking about to make sure you get something that truly matches their personality and that they’ll love to open on Christmas morning.

Know their size

Whether it’s a ring, necklace, or bracelet you’re going to gift, you need to get the size right. For bracelets, you’ll need to know whether they like them loosely fitted or slightly tighter and as for necklaces, you need to get the right length, so it sits on their neck perfectly. Ring size can be quite tricky, you need to try ways to discreetly find their out their size so you can get it perfect!

If you want to avoid spoiling the surprise, you could perhaps speak to close family and friends for tips and ideas!

Double up with jewellery sets

Jewellery sets are an ideal gift because you are getting two in one. Whether it’s a necklace and earrings set, or a bracelet and necklace set, you’re giving the luxury twice over. Jewellery sets are an amazing opportunity to give them a matching set that they can treasure for a long time to come. There’s nothing better than getting ready to head out and putting on your matching jewellery, so make them feel special this year and choose a jewellery set. We have a wide range of styles so you can choose something that will suit them perfectly.
