You may have heard of the recent trend for ‘push presents’; it’s a new term, used to describe the gift given to new mothers on the birth of their little one for, well, pushing! Of course, possibly the most famous baby of our time is the Royal baby, Prince George of Cambridge.
We’re
sure that Kate and William probably wouldn’t use a term as crass as ‘push
present’, but there are rumours that Prince William will be bestowing his
lovely wife with a little jewellery gift to congratulate her on the birth of
their new son.
If
you’re looking to copy the duchess’ impeccable style, or whether you’d like to
buy the mother of your child a little gift of jewellery to celebrate the birth
of your little one, your local independent jeweller has the lowdown on this new
trend.
Pretty in Pink: Kate’s Royal
Baby Gift
So
what exactly do you buy the mother of the future heir to the throne? Well, it’s
been rumoured that Prince William is buying the Duchess of Cambridge a brooch with
the inclusion of a pink diamond.
Prince
Charles gave Princess Diana a gold medallion with William’s name on it after
the birth of Prince William, but it seems that the Duke of Cambridge is opting
for something altogether more feminine.
It
has been reported that he is looking for a piece which will be equally at home
being worn upon a high street Zara dress as it will on a regal ball gown, and
it seems that pink diamonds are popular throughout the Royal Family, as the
Queen has one of the finest uncut pink diamonds in the world, given to her by
the Canadian geologist John Williamson on the occasion of her marriage to
Prince Philip.
She
had the diamond set into a brooch, and it is often worn and one of her favourite
pieces of jewellery. Don’t forget that if you, too, would like to have a brooch
or other piece of jewellery tailor-made for you, your local
jewellery shop will be able to help.
If You’d Like a Custom-Made
Piece ...
Visit
your local
independent jeweller. One of the great aspects of a visit to your local
jewellery shop is the fact that you can commission pieces to be custom made for
you. Natural pink diamonds are rare and
very expensive, but they can be sourced and turned into beautiful pieces of
jewellery, whether a brooch or earrings, necklaces, rings or bracelets, if you
so wish.
However,
the beauty of custom making a piece, whether for yourself or someone else, is
the fact that it can be made to your desires and tastes, so if you don’t fancy
a pink diamond, but perhaps would like a different gemstone or a simple gold or
silver piece created for you, you can have whatever your heart desires. Similarly,
if you have an heirloom piece of jewellery which you’d like to give to a loved
one but perhaps isn’t their style, a local jeweller will be able to remodel the
piece to your specifications.
Or if You’d Like To Buy a
‘Push Present’ For The Mother Of Your Child …
You’ll
find plenty of choice at your local jewellery shop. Whether you’re looking to
custom make a piece or buy something ready-made, your local
jeweller will be able to help.
Don’t be afraid to ask for advice, either; your local independent jeweller
will be happy to offer their opinion on what will suit your wife or
partner. Make your loved one feel like a
princess: push presents to suit every taste are available at your local
jewellery shop.
