It really is true that the best gifts come in small packages. Whether you're looking for a present for mom, are planning to treat your partner to something sparkly from her favorite jewelry store for a special occasion or want to show your daughter how much you love her, a teensy box with a glittering chain necklace or timeless pair of pearl earrings tucked inside is a surefire way to satisfy even the pickiest of recipients. See, jewelry is one of the best presents to give (and receive!) because most pieces can be worn every day and are naturally imbued with sentimental meaning. The fact that they glint and gleam in the sunlight? Just an added bonus.
As such, I dug through the most popular pieces from luxury jewelry brand Brilliant Earth to find eight of the best jewelry gifts for her, like these stunning Brilliant Earth diamond stud earrings ($375). My list below will have your special someone totally swooning, and all for less than $500.
And if you're looking for something over $500, the brand is currently having its 2025 Black Friday jewelry promo, where you can score a free 1/2 carat lab stud with a purchase over $1,000, a free 1/2 carat lab stud and a 1/2 carat necklace with a purchase over $3,000 and/or a surprise jewelry piece for purchases over $1,000.
