Initial pendants are available in a variety of styles, in bold block fonts and delicate script fonts. Depending on the recipient, you might choose a large and commanding initial look, or something smaller and dainty. The popular urban style has popularized that large audacious look; you can get gem encrusted initial pendants to hang from chunky gold chains. If classic is the goal, it’s hard to go wrong with a small and demure italic gold initial.

There is a variety of other initial jewelry available as well. Finger rings, toe rings, bracelets; the different possibilities for initial jewelry are practically endless. It’s even possible to find nose studs in the form of an initial! The possibilities are truly endless. You can even think a little differently about initial jewelry, such as using them to commemorate a relationship.

It’s to be expected that most choose the initials of the gift recipient when selecting a piece of initial jewelry. Consider also using one initial from each member of a relationship partnership. John and Anita might choose a “JA” or “AJ” combination, and use it as a promise ring. The possibilities are really just limited by your imagination.

For a unique touch, adding a gemstone accent to an initial pendant or other initial jewelry. Birthstones are a popular and natural choice, especially if the recipient is a big fan of birth jewelry. Of course, if you don’t think that’s the ticket, it’s hard to go wrong with a classic diamond. Don’t underestimate the effect, though, of a stunning colored gemstone such as aquamarine or amethyst. Perhaps you could consider a gemstone that is the wearer’s signature color.

Jewelry gifts are a “fail safe” gift choice, the kind of gift that has both meaning and beauty. Initial jewelry, including initial pendants, are stunning choices that can really communicate whatever emotion it is that you wish to convey; love, friendship, and commitment. Take the mystery out of gift giving, and choose a jewelry gift!
