I know how overwhelming it can feel to purchase a piece of jewelry for someone else. Will they like it? Does it suit them? Your head might be spinning, but I’m here to help.
When shopping for someone else, I recommend thinking about the following:
If you’re looking at all those pieces thinking to yourself, “I’m not sure which she’d prefer!”never fear. Try a different approach and choose a piece with symbolic meaning. For example, a 5-loop bangle for a 50th birthday or a4-loop necklace to represent each member of your family. Personalized touches are a special way to celebrate her with a shiny gift.
When all else fails, think about what kind of piece will become her next everyday favorite. Some of my most-loved, no-brainer pieces that appeal to a very wide variety of women include this necklace and these earrings.
It warms my heart when I am able to personally interact with customers, or when my staff shares a sweet story about how one of our pieces became an extension of the person buying it, or when someone is thrilled to have found the perfect gift. If you need help, you can always call us in the Showroom during regular store hours (11am-7pm PST Tuesday-Saturday) or shoot us an email: showroom@colleenmauerdesigns.com. We can’t wait to help you wow your loved ones with a gift you feel just as amazing giving as you would receiving it.

2020 - what a year! I remember getting off the plane on March 11th to arrive in SF for our annual Sample Sale. At that time, the virus was becoming more pronounced and worrisome. For better or worse, our mayor called a Shelter in Place order on March 16th. That day felt like the beginning of a massive shift for our small business [...]
