Not only is jewelry beautiful in form — it’s also beautiful in meaning. Forever tied to a memory, jewelry serves as the best daily reminder of those who love you the most. Whether you’re in the market for the perfect pair of diamond studs, an edgy ear cuff, a statement ring or a unique pendant necklace, this gift guide has you covered.

Organized by price, the list is divided into seven sections: jewelry under $50, under $100, under $250, under $500, under $1,000, under $5,000 and over $5,000, so keep scrolling for the price range you’re shopping for.
