1. Red and pink are classic Valentine’s Day hues, but don’t forget about turquoise. “Turquoise is known as the colour and gemstone of eternal love and can be found on the famous ‘Triumph of Love Tiara’ worn by Princess Margaret.” The Pink Jade, Amethyst and Turquoise Clamper Bracelet in 14k Rose Gold ($1,600) contains vintage turquoise crystals from the 1950’s and adds an unexpected pop of colour to any Valentine’s Day outfit.

2. “For someone who has everything, it can be hard to decide what to get them for Valentine’s Day. Social Media can become your best resource – browse your partner’s Pinterest boards for inspiration.” If they’re a fan of precious gemstones, perhaps a one-of-a-kind piece of jewellery like the Opal and Crystal Earrings ($495) is the perfect unexpected gift.

3. Create your own romance. “Put on your favourite crystal necklace, like the Pink Bow Necklace ($2,600), and treat yourself to a warm bubble bath with a glass of champagne.” You will feel relaxed, yet fabulous.
