PSA: size rarely matters when it comes to Christmas gifts, evident in how jewellery gifts are often some of the teeny tiniest, but the best received. However, there's no denying that the virtual shelves become seriously overcrowded with options — silver, gold, earrings, bracelets, anklets and the like from all of the best jewellery brands.

But here's the good news: being a shopping editor (and addict), I've spent the last three months attending press days, checking in with PRs and scrolling to find the very best jewellery gifts for everyone on your list in 2025.

What to expect from my edit below? Dainty studs that are best suited to stacking, huggie hoops for daily wear and statement pieces primed for party season. But for those looking for personalised gifts, I've also found bracelets, bangles and rings that can be accented with their birthstone, star sign, lab-grown diamonds or their initials, often for no extra charge. Or, for people who have everything, how about an aesthetic jewellery box to stash all their existing accessories in?

So, read on if you're keen to discover the best jewellery gifts of 2025 — all guaranteed to arrive pre-Christmas, but most available with next-day delivery — as well as answers to common gift-giving FAQs.

How I choose the best jewellery gifts & why you can trust me:

Having been a commerce writer for the last three years, and a gift guide writer for just over two, it's fair to say that I'm up to speed on the best gifts for anyone on your list, as well as the latest launches and which viral products (beauty, tech and wellness) are actually worth your money.

But to ensure I'm an authority on all things shopping, I've attended countless press days in 2025, have spoken to numerous shopping experts and personally tested hundreds of products to ensure they meet my standards. Essentially, you can also be reassured that only products and brands I genuinely love and would recommend to friends make it into the Glamour Gift Shop.

But when reviewing products — this includes TikTok-acclaimed beauty, new-in clothing, aesthetic homeware and unusual Advent calendars — I consider them all against the following criteria:

DesignIs it practical, fit for purpose and aesthetic?
Price pointWould I be willing to spend that much? Is it good quality?
DeliveryHow quickly did it arrive, and what were the associated costs?
GiftabilityWould this make a suitable birthday or Christmas gift? Is it something the recipient actually wants, needs and would enjoy?

Ahead, the best jewellery gifts for 2025, approved by Glamour editors.

  1. Best jewellery gift overall

Initial Pavé Pendant Necklace

Jewellery is a personal gift as it is — but make it even more so by gifting them a necklace embellished with their initial, or their partner's. Crafted from recycled sterling silver and placed on a dainty chain, this is sure not to tarnish or irritate the skin and is primed for stacking with a chunkier chain. Specifically, the Bold Link Chain Necklace.

2. Best ring for her

Pavé Crystal Illusion Ring

Astrid & Miyu excels when it comes to jewellery, offering plenty which look way more expensive than they are. This 18k gold vermeil ring is no exception. While the cubic zirconia stones offer some intense sparkle, the addition of the plain gold band above makes it casual enough to wear every day.

3. Best jewellery gift for her ear stack

Diamond Marquise Fan Piercing Stud

The trend of decorating the entire length of your ear with delicate jewels and mini hoops? Going nowhere. We love the subtle sparkle this Astrid & Miyu stud adds. Available in silver and gold, just be sure to match her existing hardware when checking out on this mini luxury gift.

4. Best jewellery box

Polly Large Mulberry Jewellery Case

This extra-large jewellery case by Daisy London is the definition of sexy storage, with space for all her earrings, bracelets and necklaces. Ideal for the woman in your life who likes plenty of accessory options on holiday. Available in an array of cute, clashing colourways, we're labelling this a low-risk, high-reward gift for her.

5. Best bracelet

Polly Knot Chain Bracelet

Coco Chanel may have said to remove one thing before you leave the house, but I'm all for extra accessories. This gold-plated chain bracelet from Daisy London looks chic when worn alone or stacked with a watch. Dare I say, another wardrobe essential she both needs and wants.

6. Best jewellery gift under £100

Multi Pearl Clover Bracelet

A budget alternative to the instantly recognisable designer clover bracelet — and this one can even be personalised with the letters of their name or initials. In fact, you can tailor every element to your recipient's tastes, from the colour of the charms to the style and colour of the chain.

7. Best jewellery gift for teens

Cosmic Star Bold Huggies

Every girl needs a pair of hoops to throw on with anything (and everything) — but this pair comes embellished with star engraving and dainty crystals, making it a mystic stacking staple.

8. Best zodiac jewellery gift

Scorpio Zodiac Chain Bracelet

Struggling to settle on a gift for the stargazer in your life? This bracelet, adorned with an irregular gold coin decorated with your star sign, is dainty and lightweight, but also a sweet way to show you know your recipient. Crafted in 100% recycled 18k gold vermeil, this is an eco-conscious option, plus there's space for a free engraving on the back.

9. Best pearls for her

Square Pearl Small Stud Earrings

I'm obsessed with the different-shaped pearls decorating this pair from Missoma. A modern spin on the classic freshwater studs, and ideal for party season or any 2026 bridal activities.

10. Best jewellery gift set

Stacey's Stories Doodle Heart Earrings & Ring Set

A common struggle post-Christmas? Trying to match your new additions with the existing contents of your jewellery box. Thankfully, this Abbot Lyon gift set includes a set of studs and a matching ring, both 100% waterproof and anti-tarnish. A great gift for tweens who are craving Christmas gifts that are a little more grown-up.

11. Best statement jewellery

Sometimes I find it a little hard to show off personality come winter — there's only so much you can do with a jumper and jeans. But add a statement ring, and it looks like you made a serious effort, right? I love the addition of the tiger's eye gemstone, valued for its perceived properties of courage, protection, and good luck. A suitable graduation gift ahead of their entry into the adult world of work.

12. Best luxury jewellery gift for her

1.5ct Lab Diamond Tennis Bracelet

The tennis bracelet, like a string of pearls, is a classic accessory often passed down the generations and worn on special occasions — weddings, birthdays and holidays. Essentially, she needs one. Paved in lab-grown diamonds and set in recycled 925 silver, it will look just as lovely on its own as it does stacked with her watch, and is prime retail for those willing to splurge.

13. Best watch for her

Louise Thompson Chapters Labradorite Vintage Watch

Even before she's decided on her OOTD, the one thing she likely knows she will be wearing is her watch. So why not gift her an upgrade? British brand Carrie Elizabeth has partnered with women's health campaigner, Louise Thompson, to design a collection of timeless accessories, including this gold-plated option finished with a labradorite dial. For the crystal keen, that's supposed to enhance intuition, promote spiritual growth, and strengthen their psychic abilities. A gorgeous gift for your hard-to-please mother-in-law.

14. Best signet ring

Image may contain: Body Part, Finger, Hand, Person, Skin, Adult, Accessories, Jewelry, and Ring

Jude Pinky Signet Ring

It was once a piece of jewellery only worn by men to indicate their bloodline. So, make a feminist statement and gift her a signet ring of her very own. But rather than her initial or family crest, this one comes adorned with a gemstone of your choosing. Options include: Champagne Quartz, Lab Grown White Sapphire, Amethyst, London Blue Topaz, Prasiolite or Garnet.

15. Best hoop earrings

Image may contain: Accessories, Earring, Jewelry, Adult, and Person

Chunky Hoop Earrings - Gold

Yet another pair of hoops because, if you ask me, a girl can never have too many. I love the oversized nature of this pair, adding a little edge to any and all outfits. A great gift under £100 that she's sure to reach for multiple days a week.

16. Best necklace for her

Lucy Williams T-Bar Knot Pendant Necklace

We've collectively agreed to switch to silver this season — or at least to mix in some cool-toned accessories with our gold jewels. We love how this pendant necklace combines the two, being just enough of a statement to be worn every day. Part of Lucy Williams' latest collab, it's safe to say she's slayed again.

17. Best Cartier jewellery gift

Cartier LOVE Small 18ct Yellow-Gold Ring

We don't need to remind you of the success of Cartier's Love Collection, surely? This ring is one of its most popular pieces, and is arguably one of the best non-verbal ways to declare your unconditional love for your wife or girlfriend.

18. Best belt

Jewellery gifts don't just have to consist of gems or chains to wear on their wrists or around their neck. This shell belt will add some interest to any basic outfit — jeans and a white tee — or cute layered over a scarf tied around their waist.

19. Best designer jewellery gift

Eroz 24 Carat Gold Gilded Edition Ring

Polène may be best known for its luxury leather handbags, but the French brand — founded by three siblings back in 2016 — offers a limited range of silver and gold accessories too. Crafted from brass and gilded in 24-carat gold, this statement ring consists of a rough, rock-like centrepiece and a delicate band, plus is surprisingly lightweight, making it ideal for everyday wear.

Why is jewellery a good gift?

Think about it: your own jewellery box is likely filled with pieces tied to memories – whether that be the time you last wore the item or the person who gave it to you. So you'll want to evoke the same nostalgia in whoever you're buying for. The aim is to give them something they're never going to want to take off, something that's therefore always going to be special to them. Sound daunting? Fret not, the best jewellery brands will serve you well when it comes to picking pieces that can be cherished for a lifetime.
