Lama Al Saheb, World Gold Council’s Head of Marketing & PR – Middle East, said: “Over the years Valentine’s Day has become one of the most awaited days worldwide to express one’s love not only towards one’s beloved but also towards those who mean a lot to us. While hearts and floral motifs remain the theme attractions of the day, designers have blended these richly emotive motifs into the Boho-chic trends of the season to offer jewellery that is highly topical yet timeless. Gold jewellery gifts remain one of the most attractive options for gifting as they are available in an astonishing price range befitting Dubai’s title as the “City of Gold.”
Emotive, expressive and elegant, gold jewellery trends for Valentine’s Day exude style and panache reflecting also the fresh, spring fervour in light, easy to wear creations. Top of the range includes fervent heart motifs with keys which can be dangled together as pendants on delicate chains to declare “You have the key to my heart” or even on a charm bracelet as charming reminder of your undying love. Those who wish to be more personal can also have a secret message engraved on a heart motif!
Other options include jewels combining various shades of gold such as yellow with white or white with rose gold for a more contemporary touch. Closely following in popularity are heart shaped lock pendants that turn into a silent testimony to your love. Hearts with arrows going through them or cute Cupids shooting arrows are other classic motifs that have a timeless appeal of their own. Hearts also feature on bold and dramatic cuff bracelets that reportedly were Jackie Onassis’ favourite accessory. Highly texturised jewellery presents tactile accessories in various versions such as hand hammered gold, cut-out designs, weave patterns, brushed metal or highly polished pieces.
Nature-inspired creations too carry an ever fresh look that captures floral freshness for all time, expressing in essence the ever fresh appeal of one’s love.
