Fine Jewellery Is Forever
Some jewellery like costume jewellery, you may just want as it’s fashionable at the time, but some pieces of fine jewellery you may wish to keep forever.
You may wish to remember a special relationship and not just with a partner, maybe with a child or a parent. Perhaps a special ring you got for your birthday with your birthstone in it. It’s worth spending money on this because you know you will treasure it forever and it will never date, unlike some cheaper modern jewellery which may be unfashionable in about 5 years’ time.
Some jewellery you may wish to keep as a reminder of a certain period in your life – like when you were a student, or when you first met your other half, or when your first child was born or when you went to live somewhere else. That necklace your aunt gave you when you were a penniless student and you thought at the time “What a waste” and that you would rather have had the money, but years later you still treasure it (and indeed wear it) and you know that you will treasure it forever and pass it down to your own daughter – and you hope she will feel the same. And the memories will last forever …. and the jewellery is always there to remind you of those happy, yet penniless times.
If you’re picking an engagement ring, you always pick fine jewellery because you want it to last forever so the same with other pieces. There is no harm in buying cheaper or loud bulky fashionable jewellery like costume jewellery, but these are expendable and may just be kept for a few years but fine pieces will always have their place and may even last you forever.
An eternity ring is another piece of jewellery you may wish to keep forever. The jewels in this are elegant and dainty. And remember the songs “diamonds are a girl’s best friend”. Jewels will last forever even if the relationship does not! And it will be a memento of happy times.
Older relatives in the family like to give fine jewellery as well and although as a teenager you may not appreciate this, you will realise its value in the years to come and the jewellery will always remind you of your family. And again you can pass it on to your own offspring, although they may not initially appreciate the gesture, but remember your own feelings initially and try to sympathise.
Fine jewellery is ideal to keep as a keepsake and as a memory of special times and events. It can also stay in your family for many years and be handed down the generations. Treasure it forever.
