Holiday Jewelry Gift Guide for Every Budget – The Men’s Edition

Holiday Jewelry Gift Guide for Every Budget – The Men’s Edition

One of America’s best-loved Christmas time short stories is ‘The Gift of the Magi’ by O. Henry. The protagonists are a married couple – Jim and Della – who find it challenging to buy gifts for one another with their little money. When Della finds a way to raise funds, guess what she spends them on? She uses them to buy a platinum pocket watch chain for her beloved husband. How very romantic! 

Even when Christmas and New Year seem to be replete with jewelry gift choices for women, there have always been enough swoon-worthy designs for men. Not only is jewelry a luxurious, flattering gift, but a handpicked design can also be a very thoughtful souvenir. If you still haven’t considered jewelry as a gift for the men in your life (in different relationship capacities, of course), we say it’s time you put it at the top spot on your shopping list.

Holiday Jewelry Gifts Under $300

Contrary to what is generally perceived, buying jewelry does not always equate to being an overtly extravagant expense. As hard as it is to believe, one can buy significant men’s jewelry for even less than $300! Della may have splurged on platinum, but there are other interesting and precious metals and stones you can choose instead, which don’t need you to break the bank.

Take inspiration from footballer David Beckham, who often flaunts a single bracelet with his looks, enhancing his brawny sophistication to greater heights. Oh, the visual has already had our hearts!
