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.

Then you need to consider the other items, such as diamond necklaces, bracelets or earrings. 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.

Luckily, there plenty of routes you could go down when it comes to choosing jewellery. You might like to go for earrings, bracelets, necklaces or rings, for example, and upping the ante to diamonds would be well worth considering for something extra special.

And, no matter what style your recipient prefers, there’ll be jewellery to suit. Classic designs are always going to be in fashion, or if you’re after something more contemporary you’ll be able to find it. The options are endless, and you’re bound to find just the piece that you’re looking for.

But, it needn’t just be for women. Men are just as likely to appreciate a few carefully-chosen pieces, and thanks to the huge range available for men these days you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding something to suit. Rings could be on the cards, as could diamond bracelets or necklaces, or play it safe and go for gents watches instead.

No matter who you’re buying for or what style you need, jewellery can really make the perfect gift. If you think it’s time to get shopping to surprise that special someone, make sure to come to us here at ROX for a truly fantastic selection of pieces and get ready to impress.

Don’t think that you have to wait for an engagement ring either – there are plenty of other routes you can go down. Diamond rings don’t just have to be bought for you by other people – why not treat yourself? Diamond necklaces, bracelets and earrings are all classic options, and with so many styles and designs to choose from you’ll be spoilt for choice.

Although diamonds are classic and traditional, they’re by no means outdated. You can get any style that you wish, with more contemporary pieces being just as common as classic ones. No matter what your style is you’ll be able to find the diamonds to suit, and when they look so stylish it’s a shame not to invest. Better yet, diamonds simply don’t age. They’ll look truly stunning for years to come, and will keep their lustrous sparkle for as long as you own them.

So, if you really want to impress, make sure to invest in a few pieces of diamond jewellery. Considering how good it looks it would be a shame not to, and if you’re looking to update your collection (or start it) make sure to come to us here at ROX to see what you can find.

Everybody should big it up from time to time! An oversized cluster ring here, a bulky gent’s watch there; this can go a long way to making a huge statement effortlessly.

Men

One of the best for quirky, male-orientated statement jewellery options is Stephen Webster jewellery. As a partner of ROX, Stephen Webster jewellery is fast becoming one of the most popular contemporary designers around. His unusual, chunky pieces will soon become a mainstay of any gentleman’s wardrobe.

The most popular “mancessories” to super-size are cufflinks and watches. Remember to choose one and stick to it – a smart designer watch makes its loudest statement alone. Cufflinks can give scope to be seriously creative – take a look a Stephen Webster’s gargoyles, talons and thorns for inspiration! Make sure they’re teamed with a simple, well-fitting shirt.

Women

Ladies have a little more free-reign when it comes to super-sizing.  Make it big, keep it simple. If in doubt, take off the last thing you put on! And don’t forget about colossal diamond earrings, all-engulfing neck pieces and attention-grabbing rings – cocktail-style rings are perfect!

Along with Pandora jewellery, Links of London jewellery is a leading partner with ROX. Links of London’s signature charm bracelet is a key piece to be creative with – add a silver dragonfly, take away a silver mitten – it’s up to you!

Well-chosen statement jewellery should be timeless and chic, although the real key is to have fun and be brave!

A thoughtful piece of jewellery to wear forever will serve as a reminder to your loved one that all the blood, sweat and tears were worth it! Common Graduation gifts include watches, necklaces, bracelets and diamond earrings for the truly deserved.

By far the most popular gift for boys are designer watches. A thoughtful engraving seals the deal. Here are some popular messages – “Faith in you all the way”, “Congratulations Kid!”, “You did us proud” or simply “Knew you could do it!” Be sure to include the Graduation date to mark the auspicious occasion.

Of the beauteous plethora Links of London jewellery, one of the most famous and poignant gifts for women is the charm bracelet. Renowned for originality and variety, the Links charm bracelet itself is a symbol of the beginning of something new. A piece for her to maintain, evolve and treasure as she herself progresses through life. It makes the perfect gift, and who can resist the little silver cowboy boot charm or silver quilted clutch bag charm?

Be responsive to your loved one’s taste and if in doubt, keep it simple.

Simply relying on your homeowner or renter insurance may not be enough to sufficiently cover more valuable pieces adequately. Check your policy thoroughly to clarify the exact parameters of what your current policy will cover.

Taking out a specific insurance policy for your collection need not be complicated. The three most common types of policy are Valued At, Actual Value and Market Value Replacement.

Valued At policies are less common due to their expense. Say your diamond necklace is worth £1000 but of great sentimental value, the insurer will accept your own valuation, for example £1500, to cover the added cost of emotional upset. You can see why these policies are expensive!

An Actual Value policy is the most common and economically viable. This policy will reimburse you in cash, however the amount will be the current market value of the piece (which could mean depreciation) rather than its original value.

Market Value Replacement policies are essentially the same as Actual Value, though, as the name suggests, your lovely diamond earrings would be replaced with a pair at the current market value rather than compensating you in cash.

Here are some key points to check:

* What are the terms with regard to storage of your pieces?

* Are basic repairs covered by the policy?

* Is your jewellery covered in transit and abroad?

If you are in the area, you can also visit their boutique stores in Glasgow’s famous jewellery treasure trove, the Argyll Arcade. They also have stores in the leading shopping destinations of Braehead, Silverburn and Aberdeen’s Union Square. There you will see for yourself contemporary classics, fashions straight from the catwalk, and individual pieces with an elegance and character all of their own.

The ROX reputation for diamond engagement rings is certainly impressive. Every ROX diamond in their Signature Collection is handpicked for its superior cut, presence and beauty, which means that when you wear it, you know it will stand out.

Choosing diamond jewellery is a subjective thing, but whether you buy online or at one of the retail outlets, you can ask the staff to help you when choosing jewellery. This can come in handy if you are buying, for example, diamond earrings for your wife or girlfriend as a surprise. The helpful staff at ROX will point you in the right direction if you’re not sure exactly what you want. So whatever you are looking for in diamond jewellery, have a look at the fantastic range on the ROX website.

Essentially, they are the stones which appear in Diamond Jewellery which have been sold in Africa in order to fund illegal operations of rebels and other terrorist groups. Countries that have been most affected by this are Sierra Leone, Angola, Liberia and the Democratic Republic of Congo, where many people have died in conflicts which have been funded by the sale of these stones which later turn up in everything from Diamond Bracelets to Eternity Rings.

There have been moves to ensure that our Diamond Jewellery is free from these blood diamonds. Ten years ago, South African countries with a legitimate diamond trade began a campaign to track the origins of all rough diamonds, attempting to put a stop to blood diamond sales from known conflict areas. Their efforts eventually resulted in The Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS), an international effort to rid the world of conflict diamonds, and so far appears to be seeing success.

When you are buying diamond jewellery, don’t be afraid to questions when you are choosing diamond rings or diamond earrings. Ask the dealer where the diamonds you are looking at came from, what the company’s policy on blood diamonds is, and if the company can verify the origins of the stones.

In these days of heightened consumer responsibility, the way diamonds can be used by violent and vicious regimes to gain power and the money to buy arms has been brought out into the light. In the past these ‘conflict diamonds’ found their way into designer watches and diamond earrings all over the world. Even some unlucky people’s wedding rings, bought in complete ignorance of the deadly serious issue of conflict diamonds, have been tainted by it.

However, times change, and in this matter they’ve changed for the better. All diamonds coming into the EU now have to be certified to come from conflict-free, legitimate sources. No conflict diamond may now be knowingly sold here, either as part of any diamond jewellery or as a cut stone.

You can buy diamonds from ROX with the full assurance that they are conflict-free. We’re proud to be a part of the new, more socially responsible trade in precious stones. So much so that we even scrutinise all our gold suppliers to make sure their practices are safe for workers and environmentally sound. We make sure that our jewellery is ethical jewellery.
