Gifts for friends or family

Really, any item from the fourseven Collections would make a great gift, so we want to encourage you to have a look at our catalog to choose the pieces that resonate most with you to send the special message you want for your friends and family members – men, women and girls. But we’ve outlined a few ideas below to get the great gift ideas flowing!

Starter Charm Bracelets – best gift for girls or young women

You can’t go wrong with a charm bracelet. They’re always in style and they’re meant to hold memories and all the things she loves. A starter charm bracelet usually has the bracelet plus one to three charms just to get her collection going. Then you can gift her more charms over the years or point her to our website to fill it out sooner if she likes. She will love sharing the memories with you as she chooses more and more charms.

Your first choice is the bracelet itself. You could go for a classic silver bracelet, or get a silver with semi-precious stones bracelet or even go for one of our semi-precious bead bracelets. They are all great choices and they give you the utmost flexibility from a costing perspective.

Throw in a bit of identity to make it easy to get started. Maybe her first initial or her zodiac charm or both. Then maybe a charm that is something she loves – like music or dance or fashion or reading. Then maybe a good luck charm or a spiritual charm for her health and well-being or one of our Indian Masala Charms for a bit of heritage and culture. Maybe consider an adventure charm such as our new Life is an adventure Hot Air Balloon charm to wish her fun and adventure in life. There are many great options to choose from and she’s sure to love all of them!

Fourseven offers several themed starter charm bracelets with the charms already chosen for you to make it even easier:

• The Dreamer Charm Bracelet
• The Indian Masala Charm Bracelet
• Wanderlust Charm Bracelet

Cute Jewellery Sets or Pieces for Young Girls

In addition to our charms, we offer great options for young girls – meaningful jewellery that is fashionable, high quality and grows with them as they grow up. Our special collections for girls are made in pure 92. 5 silver and each represents a wish for something good:

• A Sunny Day for happiness
• A Moonlit Night for brightness to shine even in the dark
