Stumped on a last-minute gift to give your one-of-a-kind, wonderful sweetheart for Valentine’s Day? Try these gift ideas. Whether you plan to celebrate on the day or the weekend, she is sure to appreciate their timeless beauty. 

1. Exotic Gemstones

If you want to go all out for your special someone, why not get an exotic gemstone like tanzanite? This rare precious gemstone is from the African country of Tanzania. Fun fact: tanzanite costs less for its rarity compared to other gems like rubies and sapphires. Their beautiful clear violet hue goes great with jeans and formal attire.

2. Her Favorite Birthstone

Gifts of jewelry with the valentine’s birthstone is a longstanding tradition. Did you know that the concept of birthstones comes from ancient biblical times with Aaron’s breastplate? It continues today with the modern list of birthstones by the American Gem Society.

Fresh flowers can make anyone smile, but a painting of flowers lasts a lot longer! Floral art is available in many price ranges, and styles from watercolor to impressionism. Just like real flowers, floral art pieces feature many kinds of flower species. You can even get creative and pick floral art according to the language of flowers.

 4. Art You Can Wear!

Original art is beautiful in your home. And original art you can showcase on the go is even better! These pendants are perfect for the animal lover or arty person in your life. They even have genuine gemstone beads.

5. Pink Sapphires and Diamonds

This gorgeous necklace and earring set will look absolutely stunning for valentine princesses!  Seven prong set, rhodium plated single cut diamonds are with each pear cut pink sapphire. Bonus points if her favorite color is pink.

6. An Adorable Figurine

If your sweetheart isn’t the jewelry type, a beautiful figurine is a great option. This Southern Belle is from England and crafted entirely in porcelain. Seaside Art Gallery has many other figurines too to suit diverse tastes.

7. Diamond Ring

We saved the best for last, of course…an amazing diamond ring! A perfect Valentine gift for those brave enough to pop the question. Seaside carries a number of diamond rings in different cuts, carats, and sizes. This one is a 14 carat two tone gold in a solitaire style. Its clarity is S12 and has a G color appearance.
