5 Years:
Beautiful Blue
Five years together marks a love that has deepened and strengthened and, traditionally, this anniversary is associated with the colour blue. That’s what makes Blue Sapphire jewellery, a symbol of loyalty and sincerity, such a wonderful gift. Celebrate September babies with our Birthstone Collection, which includes beautifully crafted Sterling Silver earrings and pendants, set with sapphire blue Cubic Zirconias.
10 Years: Diamond Jewellery
15 Years:
Watches
The traditional gift for fifteen years together is crystal, so it makes sense that the modern version is a watch. It’s also a great reminder that every minute spent together is a gift in itself. Our Tempo Legacy watches, for him and her, are meticulously crafted and boast a 5-year guarantee on their movement. You’ll also want to know about our new Tempo Diamond bracelet watches, featuring a sparkling Lab Grown Diamond accent set into the dial.
20 Years:
Enduring Emerald
Celebrating 20 years of togetherness? This milestone is traditionally associated with the colour emerald green, symbolising renewal, harmony and enduring love. As Emerald is the birthstone for May babies, you’ll find gorgeous gifts in our Birthstone Collection, as well as Tempo Jewellery, featuring emerald green Cubic Zirconia. Looking for something for him? You can’t go wrong with a classic bracelet watch featuring a striking green dial.
