The Diamond Jewellery That No Woman Should Be Without

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

No girl can resist diamonds. They make even the most serious of women gasp in delight, and there’s definitely something to the saying “diamonds are a girl’s best friend”. If you want her to be eternally grateful, consider giving a stunning piece of diamond jewellery for the next special occasion – if you need a bit of help, here are a few items that no girl should be without.

First up, diamond rings. Don’t just think that rings have to be given with a proposal – any number of other occasions can call for one, so if you’re not at that stage yet don’t let it put you off. Just having a stunning diamond on her finger will be more than enough, and with so many options to choose from (solitaire, cluster or trilogy rings, to name but a few) you’re bound to find something to perfectly suit the occasion.

It’s always nice to have a complete set, but having just one statement piece can be equally as stunning. You have the option of classic pieces or more contemporary ones, so no matter what style you’re looking for you’ll be able to find something to suit.

These are just a few pieces of diamond jewellery that no woman should be without, and if you surprise her with any one of them you’re bound to impress. If you really want to hit the right note, come to us here at ROX and get ready to find that perfect gift.

How To Choose The Right Watch

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

Finding the right watch can sometimes be difficult. If it’s for yourself it’s not so bad – you know what your own tastes and preferences are so can choose accordingly – but if you’re looking for watches to give as gifts you’ll need to spend a bit more time on your decision.

First of all, you’ll need to know what their own style is and what their tastes are. Generally, people buying watches as gifts tend to know their recipients quite well (they’re usually going to be loved ones or partners), so understanding what they’d like shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

If it’s for a special occasion don’t be afraid to go all-out, as designer watches are able to offer something a little bit extra to the proceedings. Those that come complete with diamonds would be another option, truly giving them something that they can cherish. For something really heartfelt consider engraving a personal massage as well, guaranteed to convey the perfect sentiment.

But, if you’re going to choose the right watches, you’re going to need the best selection to accommodate. That’s why you need to come to us here at ROX. We pride ourselves on the level of choice that we’re able to provide to our customers, and with both gents and ladies watches to choose from (and with all styles, designs and brands going) you’re sure to find something that fits the bill.

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

True love is something that deserves to be celebrated, and there’s no better way of signifying that special bond than by giving your partner a beautiful eternity ring. Eternity rings are given as a way to show your undying love for one another, symbolizing your devotion in the best possible way.

There tends to be a set route that people go down when it comes to these rings. First of all there’ll be the engagement ring, then the wedding ring, and then eternity rings are the icing on the cake that finishes the whole thing off. They’re a traditional symbol of commitment to each other, and have long been used as a way to solidify the marital bond.

Diamonds traditionally form the basis of these rings, and doing so makes perfect sense. Diamond rings, and diamonds in general, have always been a symbol of true love, so what could be better than showing that love through a beautiful diamond eternity ring?

Giving your loved one an eternity ring is sure to fill them with happiness. Perhaps you want to do it as a surprise for an anniversary, or you simply have no other reason than “just because”.

The Tradition Of Diamond Engagement Rings

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

These days, the giving of diamond engagement rings when proposing is commonplace. It’s the “done” thing to do, and any woman that wasn’t presented with a diamond would probably be quite shocked! But, it hasn’t always been that way.

In fact, the first diamond engagement ring wasn’t actually seen until 1477 when the Archduke Maximilian of Austria became betrothed to Mary of Burgundy. Up until that point plain metal bands were given instead, and even after that time diamond rings certainly weren’t common.

It was more common to see other forms of betrothal gifts being given at this time, and basic engagement rings weren’t seen in the Western world until the end of the 19th Century. Even then, the giving of diamond engagement rings didn’t become standard until the 1930’s – but those days are long behind us.

ROX Signature white gold diamond ring 1.27ctsNow, the giving of diamond engagement rings is common practice throughout the West, with at least 80% of all proposals having a diamond ring at the heart of it. It isn’t surprising really seeing that diamonds have come to be the symbol of love, affection and devotion, so what could be a better way to show your love than by presenting your soon-to-be fiancee with a stunning diamond ring?

Here at ROX, we understand just how important diamond engagement rings can be. We’ve grown with this tradition and stock a fantastic selection of options for you to choose from, so come to us to find the perfect diamond ring and she won’t be able to say no.
