Francesca’s Exclusive 21st Birthday Gift Guide
How to pick the perfect 21st present
A 21st birthday deserves to be celebrated and there’s no better way to mark the occasion than by giving a beautiful, personalised gift that will be treasured for years to come!
Finding the perfect gift for a 21st birthday can be a daunting task, that’s why we’ve created the ultimate 21st birthday gift guide to inspire some ideas! Our pieces are packaged beautifully and can be exchanged (with the exception of earrings and engraved pieces), making it as easy as possible for you!
1. Make it personal!
ou can add the first letter of the recipient’s name to a simple pendant for a stunning and classic gift. With all letters of the alphabet available and sold on a 50cm fully adjustable chain, this pendant is a personalised piece the recipient can keep close to their heart!
You can also add more charms with meaning to the chain here!
2. It’s written in the stars
Personalise a pendant with a Petite Zodiac Charm or Zodiac Charm, each of the 12 zodiac signs has its own unique meaning and is a beautiful gift either on a fully adjustable 50cm chain, 80cm chain or on one of our bobble chains for added texture!
Available on necklace chains in silver, rose and yellow gold here.
If you’d rather stick to a birthstone - you can add either our beautiful Ingot Birthstone Charm or Star Birthstone Charm to one of our chains, available in all 12 months of the year!
3. ‘Key’ to their heart
There’s an old tradition that stipulates that at 21 years of age, you are considered old enough to be a key-holder to your family home. This tradition has long since become obsolete but the symbolism of receiving the key on your 21st birthday lives on!
The key is also said to symbolise ‘opening the door to adulthood and maturity’ as well as the limitless doors the wearer can open in their life. A key pendant can be given to symbolise new horizons and uncharted adventures for the ones who wear them!
Our Key Charm is available in silver, rose and yellow gold and pairs beautifully on a bracelet, hoops or necklace chain.
4. The world is their oyster
If you’re looking for a timeless and meaningful gift, look no further than our popular pearl collection! Pearls are said to be the stone of potential, to symbolise wisdom, purity, generosity, integrity and loyalty of the wearer. Believed to attract wealth, luck and offer protection, pearls are a beautiful 21st gift!
Choose from our stunning range of pearl necklaces, hoops or bracelets.
We love the Keshi Pearl Necklace, Rochelle Trio and recently released Lulu pearl earrings!
5. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend
Depending on your budget, you can’t go wrong with a piece from our exclusive diamond and solid gold collection (Noir Range) for a gift that will last a lifetime. Our diamonds are all ethically sourced, H in colour, SI in clarity, conflict-free and brilliant-cut!
The newest addition to the Noir Collection is our Signet ring, a beautiful and timeless piece, with a fully engravable disc for a personalised touch.
Our Amaretto ring is one of our favourites, with an oval milky quartz bezel stone set into your choice of a sterling silver or 9k solid rose or yellow gold 10mm band.
The Moet and Flemington rings are also an amazing choice and can be worn on their own or stacked with other solid rings for a stunning effect!
Your Noir piece will arrive beautifully packaged in our premium Noir packaging and can, of course, be gift wrapped!
If you’re really not sure, you can always opt for a Francesca gift card!
We believe that you can’t go wrong in purchasing from a place of love and hope you enjoy the gift selection and giving process along the way!
Lots of love,
The Francesca Team x
