The Ultimate Valentine's Day Gift Guide: Personalized Jewelry from GLDN

Valentine’s Day. An occasion marking some of our longest and most deeply felt bonds. Although we should always be celebrating the ones we love every day of the year, having an occasion reserved strictly for romance gives everyone a chance to show someone how much you love them. Just like your partner! They’re absolutely unique. A light in your life. The ONE. Someone you really, really like… Whatever your relationship status this V-Day, we’re gonna help you find a necklace or bracelet they’ll love!

¹Did you know the first known Valentine was sent in 1415?! It was sent by Charles, the Duke of Orleans to his wife—it’s the first recorded use of the word Valentine to describe a loved one. Oddly, things haven’t changed much in 600 years or so. We still send cards, we still go out, and we still get the ones we love something nice. But Charles the Duke of Orleans didn’t have GLDN!

 

 

So this Valentine’s Day, if they’re the person for you—let’s show ‘em! Planning out the perfect day should be your top priority, but you won’t be doing it all on your own. Your V-Day should be filled with love, laughter, and memories—with a custom GLDN necklace to top the night off. Of course, it’s the thought that counts always, but we’re here to help you make sure those thoughts are on point! You’ll bring everything you know about them. We’ll bring all our expertise in making the most personal, trend-defying custom jewelry.

We rounded up 4 of our bestselling custom pieces to give you something truly symbolic for your loved one this V-Day! They’re going to cherish whatever you get (and just in case they don’t our care team will be happy to do an exchange until they do). This way you’re sure to pick something that reminds them every day how miraculous your love story is.

 

Bennett Necklace

If this Valentine’s Day is your first as a serious couple—or even your fiftieth, it’s hard to beat our Bennett Necklace. There’s a reason this understated necklace is our number one bestseller. It seamlessly combines sentimentality and style in a material that’ll look good with anything. They can wear it out on date nights, to work, or even to the store! A constant companion they’ll want to pair with any outfit. Customize it by having both of your first initials hand-stamped onto the two small tags (you can even add more if your love story grows!). Then choose from over 130 different symbols to personalize the eye-catching large pendant. Maybe there’s one that represents something super special—but only the two of you know what it means. Thoughtful and fashionable, this must-have necklace will never leave their neck. You do know them best though, so what material will they shine the most in? 14k gold fill is always a solid option—it has the glimmer of solid gold without the price tag! (We even have a 14k gold fill care guide if you’re unfamiliar.) Rose gold fill and sterling silver are also solid choices. But if you really want to make this Valentine’s Day one for the record books, there’s only one way to go—solid 14k gold. Iconic, durable, and made to last a lifetime, it’s a gift they’ll never stop thinking about.

(P.S. Take a look at our blog about 14k gold fill if you’re trying to decide between solid gold or fill!)

 

Kindred Birthstone Necklace

Nothing says I love you like the shine of a gemstone! (There are probably a few other things too.) The Kindred Birthstone Necklace blends GLDN’s knack for hand-stamped, personalized necklaces with the infinite allure of gemstones. Stunning in sterling silver and equally radiant in 14k gold fill, choose whichever material you think will reflect their light best. Next step? Customize this pendant necklace with one of our 130 illustrative symbols. Try to get one that symbolizes the two of you! Or if your relationship isn’t as far along, pick one that captures their style or personality! Select the Aura Gemstone Charm to pair with it, their birthstone or yours? Maybe their mom or dad’s. If it’s hard to decide, you can add up to 5 extra gemstones. One for you, them, and everyone else in your lives. Especially any four-legged friends!

 

Micro Heart Locket Necklace

Seal your love away this year with our Micro Heart Locket Necklace. Six months, one year, or one week, whatever stage your relationship is at, we know they’ll adore this customizable and thoughtful necklace. This locket isn’t display only—it really opens and closes! Why don’t you sneakily put something small and thoughtful in there before you give it to them? Maybe a pretty flower petal or a small photo. Or even a tiny love note. Have it hand-stamped with their initial, yours, or leave it blank for a little “sometimes love is unspoken” kind of thing! Don’t forget to select the material, reliable and budget-friendly 14k gold fill or the cool tones of sterling silver.

 

Frankie Heart Bracelet

Every relationship has that very first V-Day gift—let’s make sure it’s a memorable one! But it is only a year or less into the relationship, so something BIG might come on a little strong. You want to give them a gift that’s thoughtful and symbolic but not overly sentimental. Maybe something to signal that you care for them and you want to move your relationship to the next level. A piece that strikes a balance between, “Oh you shouldn’t have!” and “Awwww.”  We’ve got just the thing! Let our Frankie Heart Bracelet help you out. With its customizable heart-shaped pendant, they can carry you with them all day long. Available in 14k gold fill, which looks like solid gold but doesn’t cost as much, (a smart first V-Day option) sterling silver, rose gold fill for something a little different, and finally, solid 14k gold— timeless and tarnish resistant, this is one way to make a stellar first V-Day.

 

We’re so happy we can help you make memories this Valentine’s Day! Don’t worry, they’ll be thrilled with anything you pick because it came from the heart. If you didn’t see something that matches their style here, we’ve got tons more personalized bracelets and necklaces to check out!
