Diamond Rings

Bracelets and Necklaces

Bracelets and necklaces are also popular pieces of fine jewellery. They are typically made from gold, silver and platinum and are often adorned with jewels. When buying necklaces and bracelets, you should always find out about the quality of the metal and stones used before settling on a piece.

Watches

Watches were traditionally the ultimate fine jewellery statement. A watch by a top maker such as Cartier or Rolex was the mark of class and breeding. For people of a certain age, a fine watch is still something to be cherished; however, if you are buying for younger people, a watch may not be ideal as the younger generations do not tend to wear watches much today.
