2020 – the year for heirlooms
If you read our 3 trends for 2020 post, you would have caught us talking about heirlooms.
In popular usage, an heirloom is something that has been passed down for generations through family members. For many consumers, it’s the perfect tradition to start this Mother’s Day.
From mannerisms, advice, sense of humour and the curl in your hair, mums pass on so much to us. Jewellery can be a priceless gift, something that holds memories, and like the best advice and that sharp sense of humour, can be passed down through the generations.
Jewellery is all about personality and pieces with emotion that hold a personal touch

With stories to tell and events to be reminded of, a pair of timeless earrings make the perfect heirloom.
That’s not to say they need to be expensive, here are some of our favourite heirloom picks:
