I’m in a similar position - sorry for your loss.

I’m thinking a 5 or 7 stone diamond ring, sparkly but still wearable day to day. Originally I was looking at eternity rings but couldn’t find any I loved. I’m mostly leaning towards a ring because it could be engraved.

I really like solitaire diamond necklaces too, I know Cartier have one but an independent jeweller might be better.

Also like the thought of having some really pretty jewellery (maybe earrings) only kept for special occasions that could be passed down.
Cartier do a really beautiful, delicate eternity band if you're looking? Pretty reasonably priced for the brand - https://www.cartier.com/en-gb/etincelle-de-cartier-wedding-ring_cod25458910981759032.html

Yeah the pink one I do love, so of course it's unavailable 😆. I've set a notification for stock but will also keep checking as with the key pouches...I never got a notification!

Thank you. My top 3 also. May have to pull out of a hat 😆. I'm gonna hold off a bit and see if the Clic it comes back into stock. Iconic I worry is too gold when my others are silver and may look silly...

Why is this hard lol

OK. My bracelet is back in stock BUT I googled for photos to see it on a wrist...and this came up. Is it going to get grubby and crap looking like this :/... maybe the hermes bangle instead
I’d go for the Hermes

I'm a big LV lover but bags etc. Never gone down the jewellery route.
Yeah actually TBF I don't mind some of the bags. I just find they've been copied so much that they've lost their appeal for me yaknow?

I’ve put BB vanity on my Christmas list. I’ve changed my mind about the Chanel heart, I don’t think I will get much wear from it and I’m not a shelf collector.

I like the LV iconic and Hermes bangle.

Will the rose gold plate rub off the bangle though? I don't know what material is underneath but might get patches of silver?

I think that would be an issue with the LV one too. I do love the leather LV one but that mucky one put me right off 😆

Hermes assured that the rose gold wouldn't fade and the enamel is strong but "However, as most of our products are delicate, I would recommend to avoid water, grease, heat, light and humidity".

Light. Avoid light. Is it just to be worn in a cave? A cold, dry cave? 😆

These sorts of products are made in factories in Thailand at an appallingly low cost and shipped over in plastic baggies, quality wise it’s on par with like… the Topshop jewellery stand they used to have by the tills. If you want to wear something regularly and keep it nice I’d go to a lovely independent jeweller and get something in gold or at least silver, sorry to be a Debbie downer x

I've got some of the cheaper Tiffany bracelets (granted they're SS) but also enamel and 10 years on are still strong.

Saw this on the Hermes website when searched for factories etc: https://www.hermes.com/us/en/story/271246-responsible-and-sustainable-development/

Enamel is absolutely fine and resilient so you should be fine with that element, I have never worked for Hermès and imagine they likely make use of different factories as they are in a different league although these are “only” £00s so can’t imagine they’re doing much better by the customer - but how can they possibly assure anyone that gold plating won’t fade? Solid gold can be scratched and dented, plating won’t last more than a few years.

This is my eleven year old clic clac. It’s as good as the day I bought it.
