With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about the perfect fine jewelry gift for your special someone. Whether you are looking for something classic and timeless or something with a modern twist, this guide will help you find the perfect piece of jewelry to make your loved one feel special this Valentine's Day.
Timeless Pieces
Jewelry that has stood the test of time is always a safe bet for Valentine's Day. Diamond solitaires are a great option for those who want to show their love in an elegant way. A single diamond set on a thin band or chain can be a beautiful reminder of your commitment. Another go-to gift is a classic diamond cross necklace or diamond tennis bracelet (below), which adds sophistication and elegance to any outfit. For something extra special, we can create any diamond piece for any budget. We can also source a beautiful strand of pearls in all shades of the rainbow from peacock green or deep blue to pearlized white.
Modern Designs
If you’re looking to give your loved one something unique and unexpected, try exploring some more modern styles. Statement necklaces featuring colorful gemstones like rubies, emeralds, sapphires and tanzanites can add a touch of drama to any look. Stackable rings adorned with diamonds or colorful stones are also great options; they add sparkle without being too ostentatious. If you’re stuck on finding just the right piece, again, consider custom-made jewelry; this will ensure that your gift is as unique as your relationship! Have a look at our best selling custom nameplate necklaces.
Sentimental Gifts
Custom engraved pieces are always popular gifts because they carry personal meaning beyond traditional styles of jewelry. You can engrave names, initials or meaningful dates onto rings, bracelets or necklaces to create a timeless memento that your loved one will cherish forever. This type of gift works especially well when combined with other classic designs such as diamond stud earrings or pendants set with birthstones. No matter what you choose to give them, these personalized touches will make sure that your gift stands out from the crowd this Valentine's Day! When shopping for custom pieces, contact our team to help build exactly what you're looking for!
Valentine's Day is the perfect time to show someone how much they mean to you by giving them the perfect piece of jewelry! Whether you opt for timeless classics like diamond solitaires and pearl necklaces or choose something more modern like customized designs and statement pieces - there are plenty of options available so take some time to find what speaks directly to your relationship! Jewelry makes an excellent present no matter what style you choose; it carries emotional significance beyond its monetary value and will be treasured long after the holiday season has passed! So go ahead, express your love in the most timeless way possible - with a beautiful piece of jewelry!
Happy Valentine's Day!

"Plata Aurum" : A Unique Silver Alloy
Kate Alexandra Jewelry's Signature and Propriety Alloy Blend
Kate Alexandra Jewelry is produced in a state-of-the-art facility with only the finest metals and stones. Many pieces in the collection are offered in Kate Alexandra's signature alloy, Plata Aurum.
We came up with the name Plata Aurum, because "Plata" is the word for "Silver" in Spanish, and and "Aurum" is the Latin word for Gold.
"Splash" Bracelet crafted in Plata Aurum Metal and Brilliant Cut Round Diamonds
"Plata Aurum" is Kate Alexandra Jewelry's signature blend comprised of three metals: gold, platinum, and sterling silver. This unique combination provides a strong, bright white metal that is highly tarnish resistant, and does not change color. This unique silver alloy is a superior alternative to sterling silver for these distinguishing qualities. It is comparable to gold and platinum in strength, color, and durability and yet is much more economical than these materials.
All of our silver pieces are made with Plata Aurum - click here to shop our store! xx KAJ
