With globally mass produced items and global fashion trends having become the norm, I’m not surprised to see women embracing jewelers and jewelry collections that invite them to personalize & customize. It feels important today (more than ever) to own something truly unique—something truly special. Keep in mind this is not a trend. Personalizing jewelry is not something new, but a classic practice that has resurfaced with plenty of attention. It’s always been in vogue. Every time you purchase a jewelry item, you’re making a statement regarding your personal taste and style. The personalization of a piece just makes it ever more tailored to what you want to say and who you are.
 All fine jewels and fine jewelry allow us to express ourselves
…personalization adds a memorable extra.
Even the simplest designs come to life with the addition of a beautifully-engraved initial or name. Once a jewelry item is personalized or customized , it’s yours and it features the very message you wanted to share with the world. I often allude to the special relationship we have with our jewelry and the personal experience of jewelry. Choosing to personalize & customize a special jewelry item is another way you can celebrate the inimitable connection.
Personalize jewelry for yourself to emphasize a unique idea or even proudly don the monogram of your child. Give your daughter a lovely monogrammed necklace as the start of her own jewelry collection. Personalize a precious gift for a friend or loved one with both of your initials or an engraved message to be cherished for years to come. Here are some ideas….
You can look to universe and the stars to express yourself.Â
