Getting a piece of jewelry right depends on knowing the recipient's style. These ideas help you choose with confidence.

## If you do not know the size

Choose pieces that need no size: **pendants, earrings, chains and adjustable bracelets**. For a ring, see [how to find the size](https://www.711grados.com/en/how-to-find-your-ring-size/).

## By person

- **Partner:** a ring or pendant with meaning, a birthstone or a personalized piece.
- **Mother:** classic earrings, a pendant with her children's initials or a bracelet.
- **Daughter or niece:** a fine chain with a small silver pendant.
- **Friend:** small earrings, hoops or a bracelet.

## By occasion

Birthdays, anniversaries, births and graduations usually call for small pieces with symbolic weight. For weddings, [birthstones](https://www.711grados.com/en/birthstones-by-month/) and engraved pieces are a good option.

## Personalization and budget

An engraving (initials, date) makes the gift unique, but it reduces the chance of exchange. Set a realistic budget and check the exchange policy.

## Material

If it is for daily wear, choose [materials that do not tarnish](https://www.711grados.com/en/jewelry-that-does-not-tarnish/). For special occasions, sterling silver or gold plating may be enough.
