16 Pieces Perfect for Valentine’s Day
From “everyday” diamond jewelry to stackable rings and bangles, essential pieces make great, price-point friendly choices for consumers shopping for the day of love.

When it comes to Valentine’s Day, diamond jewelry that can be worn every day is a smart choice for jewelers to stock this year.
“Everyday diamonds are the perfect gift,” says Amanda Gizzi, Jewelers of America’s director of public relations and special events and a trend-spotter who appears on TV to talk to consumers about jewelry. “These essentials are a daily reminder of the loved one that gave the gift.”
Specifically, she noted diamond cluster stud earrings, bar pendants, diamond-accented bangles and cuffs and stackable pieces as go-to items.
And when it comes to color? “Pink and red gemstones … express feelings for love and admiration,” she says. “Colored gemstones are also perfect for fitting into any size budget.”
