Sterling silver jewelry is an excellent choice for bridesmaids’ gifts. It’s affordable and well-loved, and it’s available in a wealth of styles for bridesmaids of all personalities.

Silver gemstone rings can serve as lasting reminders of your bridesmaids’ role in your wedding and, depending on what styles you choose, your bridal party could even wear them for the first time at the wedding. For example, if your bridesmaids will be walking down the aisle in light blue dresses, consider giving them aquamarine rings to accent their ensembles.

The Vintage Prong-Set Aquamarine Ring in Sterling Silver would be a lovely addition to nearly any light blue bridesmaid gown. This simply stunning ring puts a Victorian twist on a solitaire style as six prongs elevate a round aquamarine into the spotlight. The sides of the slender band that holds this stone are graced with elegant engraved motifs that make this ring truly something special.

Sterling silver pendants come in a range of styles, allowing you to choose pieces that perfectly suit your bridal party. Heart pendants can be an especially meaningful way to express not only your gratitude, but also your affection. For example, the Journey of Friendship Sterling Silver Pendant represents the growth of love in a friendship over time. An S-shaped swirl merges with a heart as the cubic zirconia stones that accent this pendant grow gradually larger.

A pair of sterling silver earrings is also a lovely way to express your gratitude, from gemstone studs to hoops to swirling handcrafted styles. The Starhaven Sterling Silver Clover Earrings exhibit a unique design that’s simultaneously contemporary and timeless. Petite clover shapes dangle from these classy pieces, each accented by a delicate swirling motif. This pair is versatile enough to wear any day of the week, from the workplace to the weekend. They’re sophisticated without being too serious, providing your bridesmaids with an accessory they can wear for years to come.

Silver bracelets are versatile accents that just about any bridesmaid will love, and Apples of Gold carries a range of bangles, cuffs and other styles that can easily express your thanks. The Celtic Knot Sterling Silver Bangle Bracelet showcases an elegant three-dimensional Celtic knot as part of a timelessly beautiful bangle. This piece is feminine but strong, perfect for showing the ladies who’ve stood by you that you appreciate them.

Don’t let your wedding day go by without showing your bridesmaids that you appreciate all they’ve done to help make it special! Sterling silver rings, bracelets, pendants and earrings can all express your gratitude to the ladies who’ve stood by you and who will stand by your side on your special day.

His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.”

Finding the one you love is an incredible thing to be thankful for, and if you’re planning to propose in the months to come, now is a fantastic time to purchase an engagement ring. Even the most lavish styles are on sale, including the show-stopping Platinum 1.36 Carat Three Stone Princess Cut “Floret” Bridal Set. This pair of rings is inspired by the Victorian Era, and its timeless glamour poises it to become a treasured heirloom. The engagement ring showcases over a carat of diamonds, including a stunning 0.50-carat princess-cut center stone framed by two princess-cut side stones and six round accent diamonds. Nearly a quarter carat of round stones accent the coordinating wedding band, providing the perfect complement to the engagement ring. The sides of both of these pieces are carved with a delicate floral motif that sets these rings apart.

Often, the things we’re most thankful for aren’t things, but people. The Apostle Paul regularly thanked God for the people in his life. He even wrote to members of the church in Philippi that “I thank my God upon every remembrance of you.” As you think of the individuals in your life for whom you’re grateful, why not consider showing them your thanks with one of Apples of Gold’s silver rings or silver pendants? For example, the Lifetime Friend Sterling Silver Pendant with CZ Accent celebrates the special bond between old friends. This pendant features a cubic-zirconia encrusted sterling silver heart that’s intertwined with a never-ending infinity knot, a symbol of eternity.

Ultimately, all of the blessings in our lives are from God and He deserves our deepest, continual thanks. Psalm 107 repeats a refrain that calls all who hear to give thanks to Him: “Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!” Join us in our celebration of gratitude as we offer an incredible Thanksgiving sale!

In addition to pieces that feature flags or those with red, white and blue gemstones, sterling silver pendants that feature the symbol of particular branch of the military are a meaningful way to honor a particular serviceperson. At just over an inch high, the United States Air Force Medallion Charm in Sterling Silver is a strong declaration of your support for those who serve in the air. Or, choose a similar pendant to pay homage to members of the navy or the marines.

Faith is essential for many military families as loved ones must entrust one another to God while they must be apart. The U.S. Army Cross Pendant in Sterling Silver honors the essential nature of faith when putting it all on the line. This unique sterling silver pendant places a medallion engraved with the U.S. army seal in the middle of a cross accented with a Celtic motif, making it a fitting picture of faith that is only made stronger when it’s tested, and that has carried countless servicemen and women through desperate times.

Veterans Day can also be a time to honor the veterans of tomorrow, as well as the families who sacrifice so that they can serve our country. After all, they’re the veterans of tomorrow! Consider recognizing them with a piece of jewelry that honors the gift that they and their families give on our behalf.

The Sterling Silver Military Dog Tag Pendant with Prayer Inscription for Two is a powerful reminder of the connection between military members and those they love, even when they’re apart. Together this set of two pendants forms a single dog tag, a symbol of two lives that are joined as one. Only when both halves are present can the inscription be read: “May the Lord keep watch between us to make sure that we keep this covenant when we are out of each other’s sight.” Adapted from Genesis 31:49—“May the Lord watch between you and me when we are absent one from another”—this set communicates that the wearer of each half holds the other in his or her heart until the two are reunited. Each half comes with an 18” sterling silver chain so this pair is ready to wear.

Don’t let this Veterans Day go by without honoring the veterans—present and future—in your life! Be sure to say thank you and consider showing your support with a silver pedant that recognizes their service.

The raindrop-like swirls of paisley come in and out of vogue, but they never really go out of style, especially when they’re incorporated into vintage designs that have already proven that they can stand the test of time. Paisley traces its roots back to several parts of the world, from the land of the Celts to South Asia. It showed up in many art forms in India, including shawls in Kashmir. These shawls made their way to England in the 18^th century, where they became incredibly popular among the British, who began to incorporate this pattern from the East into their own designs.

Paisley’s popularity traveled with the British to the United States and endured into the Victorian Era—the time period that inspires many of Apples of Gold’s silver paisley wedding bands. Paisley patterns are featured in a number of Apples of Gold’s silver wedding bands for women, giving today’s brides a number of stylish and affordable options.

Paisley is an inherently playful pattern, and this lighthearted nature is celebrated in the whimsical Paisley Sterling Silver and 14K Yellow Gold Spinner Ring. A sterling silver band with a subtle concave curve is stamped with a lush paisley design reminiscent of a Victorian tapestry. Wrapped around this chicly-patterned ring is a thin gold band that spins freely while adding a pop of contrast in both color and texture. And, it’s handcrafted from recycled precious metal that’s both nickel-free and lead-free.

If you’re concerned about tarnishing, consider one of Apples of Gold’s paisley wedding bands that’s crafted from argentium sterling silver. The two rings to follow feature a special type of sterling silver that’s highly resistant to tarnish.

The Silver Carved Paisley Wedding Band combines three distinct textures into one stunning ring. A flat center is carved with a modern paisley motif, hugged by both inner beaded-look borders and smooth, polished edges, creating a look that’s sleek and sophisticated.

Diamonds partner well with paisley as demonstrated in the Silver Paisley Diamond Wedding Band. This intricately-detailed ring is accented by 10 round diamonds totaling 0.20 carats for a look that sparkles from all sides. Within the continuous carved paisley motif are braided and floral designs, making this band increasingly enchanting the closer you look.

The 3mm-wide Handmade Paisley Floral Wedding Band in .925 Sterling Silver may be petite in size, but it exhibits exquisite style. The individual care that is poured into this style is evident in the delicate flowers and swirls that encompass it from all sides.

This fall, embrace paisley with one of Apples of Gold’s silver wedding bands! These rings offer the perfect combination of trendy and timeless.

Sterling silver gemstone rings can add an extra pop of color to your wedding ceremony as well as express your appreciation. Consider choosing styles that feature a gemstone that matches your attendants’ dresses and giving it to them at the rehearsal dinner. That way, each bridesmaid will be able to debut her new ring as she precedes you down the aisle. And, since many of these rings can also serve as silver engagement rings, there’s a good chance that you’ll be able to give pieces that complement your own bridal jewelry.

Antique silver gemstone styles add a feminine touch to any bridesmaid’s hand. For example, the Victorian Floral Garnet Ring in .925 Sterling Silver features an intricate filigree design inspired by the ladylike styles that were popular over a century ago, accented with an eye-catching red garnet. Or, for a more modern look with a handmade touch, consider a hammered look such as the Hammered Purple Ocean Sterling Silver Amethyst Ring. This handcrafted ring, with its sizeable amethyst, is simple but stunning.

Sterling silver gemstone pendants are also excellent choices for your bridal party. Simple styles such as the 3.50 Carat Swiss Blue Topaz and Diamond Pendant in .925 Sterling Silver make chic, colorful statements that your attendants are sure to appreciate. Accented by a small diamond, a bold oval-shaped blue topaz is the perfect touch of “something blue” to remind each bridesmaid of your wedding day.

You can’t go wrong with pearls, and a pearl bracelet, necklace or pair of earrings is a lovely way to say thank you to the ladies that helped make your day special. Pearls are a true classic, making them a gift that will always be in style. The Cultured Round Pearl Bracelet 14K Yellow Gold is truly timeless. Its seven inches of perfectly matched 6.5 mm pearls are secured with a 14K yellow gold clasp to form a look that will be treasured for years to come. Add a pair of 6-6.5 mm Cultured Round Pearl Stud Earrings in 14K Yellow Gold to create a coordinated set, or give these earrings alone for an versatile accent that your bridesmaids will be able to wear over and over.

If tradition with a subtle twist better suits your bridesmaids, consider a strand of pearls with a hint of color. Apples of Gold’s 7-8mm Lavender Freshwater Pearl Necklace features AAA quality hand-picked pearls and your choice of a sterling silver, white gold or yellow gold clasp. It’s the perfect mix of modern style and timeless class.

Although you’re the star of your wedding day, don’t forget to acknowledge the ladies who play strong supporting roles. Honoring them with a gift of jewelry is the perfect way to say thanks.
