A pair of sapphire earrings set in yellow or white gold is a classic, and is always appropriate. Choose from genuine sapphire, or the more affordable lab-created gem. Sunny and affordable, citrine earrings look perfect when set in glistening yellow gold mountings. Traditionally, citrine is given on anniversaries but is perfect for any occasion. Garnet has been known as a gift of love since the time of the ancient Greeks. A pair of garnet earrings are an excellent gift for an anniversary or January birthday.
