Valentine's Day Antique Jewelry 2 - post 50

#7476 double pink heart ring. 

Valentine’s Day, coming up soon, is synonymous with romantic gift giving. When looking for original romantic gifts to express your love and regard, nothing says it better than an antique or antique jewelry gift. Bound in the mists of time and generations of romance, antiques and antique jewelry are the ultimate expression of “I love you”.

What makes antiques and jewelry so romantic?  Does it have something to do with those who owned and loved before us? The continuity of our love - a reminder of past shared experience or hopes for the future?  Somehow antiques and antique jewelry pull on our heartstrings. They are sweet and considerate. They express real care more than anything bright and new.

What is a romantic gift? Hearts are first choice for many. A small vase with a single flower in it. Long ago, I had an elderly gentleman buy what I thought was the ultimate romantic gift for his wife: a tiny silver wheelbarrow with doves sitting on it. No bigger than 2inches in size. He took so much care and thought over this gift. I thought: what an incredibly lucky woman! A day after it was delivered, he emailed to tell me that ‘she hates it and won’t have it in the house’.

A Lock and key to your heart convey a clear message of love.

On the other hand, lucky ladies have become fabulous fiancés with the gift of a beautiful antique ring. More than one bright young man has Popped the Question with an antique that conveys so much more than bling. They don’t need to be traditional in shape and design. The workmanship is always better. Maybe an antique pendant will do instead.

 

The list goes on: beautiful antique picture frames to remind you of your shared life. Whatever you choose, antiques and antique jewelry talk like nothing else.
