Buying jewellery for a woman is always a sure-bet because:

• All women love jewellery. Fact.
• There is such a sheer variety you can be sure she won't already have what you buy her
• You can always find something whatever your budget
• The fact that you chose something yourself shows that "you put effort into it"
• When looked after jewellery lasts forever

OK great so far, but why amber jewellery? A few reasons:

• Amber jewellery has never been so popular as recently, but still has that elusive quality
• Amber comes in a wide variety of colours (commonly greens, honey colours, yellows)
• Amber is a natural product so all pieces are different
• Amber is fascinating - being millions of years old and containing plant/insect material from that time (called "inclusions")
• Amber has a rich history - read more about it under "About Amber"

OK easy stuff so far. Next you have to work out which category of jewellery you want to get her. Here at Amber Magic all of our jewellery is set in Polish sterling silver. Generally you can't go too far wrong with this, but if you have noticed that she only wears gold jewellery then this might not be the place for you - be aware that some women prefer gold, some silver and some both.

Now have a look at the following list and rule them in or out:

Earrings - one of the most popular gift options. But BE SURE SHE HAS PIERCED EARS! Most women do, but some women wear clip-on earrings so if you aren't certain then check.

Bracelets - a good option but think - have you seen her wearing bracelets before? Would you know what size her wrists are?

Necklaces and Pendants - again a very popular gift option. Note that pendants don't come with chains whereas necklaces do. If you need a chain there are three sizes - 16" corresponds to small, 18" is medium, and 20" is large. This isn't too critical though so if you aren't sure then go for medium.

Brooches - if you have seen her wear a brooch before then go for this option! Search over.

If you are seeking matching amber rings then why not try our friends at amberstall?

You've done most of the narrowing down now, so just go ahead and browse the categories you are interested in. All you have to do is choose something you think is interesting and in the right budget and we do the rest - your selection will be placed in a gift box and we even include a silver polishing cloth. Nothing on the envelope will indicate that your delivery has come from Amber Magic just in case she sees it.

Happy hunting!
