Jewellery that matches your skin

Pieces of jewellery are not simply fashion accessories; they reflect the personality of the wearer. From white gold to yellow gold, there are many metals used in the design of jewellery creations. Did you know that some metals suit you better than others? While it is important to follow your tastes and instincts, don’t hesitate to ask your jeweller for advice to help you choose the metal that is best for you. Below are our tips on choosing your jewellery according to your skin undertone as well as a selection of jewellery that may be just right for you.

Know your skin undertone

It is not always obvious which skin undertone you have. The easiest way is to look at your wrist, especially your veins. Do you have blue veins? Then you have a cool skin undertone. Do you have green veins? In this case, your skin undertone is warm. If you are not sure, it’s because you have a neutral skin undertone.

Which metals and stones are best for warm undertones?

Naturally tanned and sun-kissed skin will undoubtedly be enhanced by yellow gold, which will highlight and illuminate the skin. Warm undertones can also opt for rose gold jewellery. As for stones, we advise you favour yellow, orange and green ones. Yellow sapphire, imperial topaz and emerald are your best bets.

Which metals and stones are best for cool undertones?

Cool skin undertones, and thus paler complexions, are enhanced by silver, white gold and platinum. These metals can be paired with red, purple and blue coloured stones such as rubies, amethysts or even blue sapphires for a pure, fresh look.

How to choose an engagement ring

At GENEVE, we are here to help you live life’s greatest moments to the fullest. The engagement ring represents a major step, commitment and, most importantly, great love. We can’t convince your beloved to say yes, but we can help you choose the perfect engagement ring. Here are our tips!

Define her tastes

It would be a shame to give her a ring that does not suit her. For this reason, the first thing to do is to determine your future fiancée’s style. Does she like timeless looks or, on the contrary, does she prefer to wear unusual, extravagant clothes? Is she discreet, or does she like to assert her personality? If she usually wears jewellery, make sure to look at it closely. Does she wear yellow or white gold? Is her jewellery classic, bold, colourful? All of the answers to these questions will give you an initial idea about the ring of her dreams!

Which material to choose?

You should choose a colour and material for the ring that she will never want to take off. So, do not hesitate to take a look at her jewellery box to determine which colour she likes best. Is it white, yellow or pink gold? If you are doubting between two colours, we are here to help you choose which will suit her best based on her complexion. Know that white gold is extremely popular for engagement rings, as it is a solid, resistant and precious material.

Which stone to choose? 

After choosing the metal, you will need to select the stone that will adorn the ring. The diamond is the gemstone par excellence. However, you can certainly opt for a blue sapphire, an emerald or a ruby. 

Know her ring size

Another aspect that is as important as the rest: the size of her finger. When you give the ring to your soon-to-be life partner, she will want to put it on immediately. That is why we suggest that you discreetly borrow one of her rings to bring to us, so that we can determine her ring size. In the event that she does not wear jewellery on a daily basis, you will have to be inventive and describe the size of her finger in as much detail as possible.

All you have to do is ask for your dearly beloved’s hand and enjoy this magical moment.

DÍA PERFECTO, ANILLO PERFECTO

El amor, ese sentimiento que hace que todo el cuerpo se estremezca, en muchas ocasiones es un sentimiento inefable. Cuando nos declaramos a aquella persona que amamos el anillo no es más que una muestra de la llama de esta gran pasión. El anillo significa el compromiso al que las dos personas se comprometen a mantener entre ellas. Para la correcta selección de este gran detalle vamos a ayudaros con algunos tips para que acertéis.

CONOCER LOS GUSTOS

Cuando te declaras a una persona ya la conoces, entonces conocer los gustos será tarea sencilla, pero es algo muy importante a tener en cuenta. Pensad, dadle vueltas y sobre todo acertar con la elección. Los colores, la piedra, la forma, todo esto son detalles indispensables a la hora de seleccionar una joya. ¿Le gusta lo extravagante o lo discreto? ¿Qué haya colores o un simple color plata? ¿Algo más atemporal o que sea la última moda? Estas son algunas preguntas básicas que os debéis hacer a la hora de escoger anillo de pedida.

LA TALLA

Una información que requiere de gran habilidad para que la susodicha o susodicho no sea capaz de adivinar nuestras intenciones. Saber la talla os permitirá conseguir el anillo perfecto, sin necesidad de pasar por una joyería para agrandar o estrechar. Si por casualidad vuestra pareja no le gustase llevar joyas, deberéis hacer hincapié en vuestra creatividad para adivinarla, ya sea disimuladamente en stand de joyas o dando el máximo de detalles posibles al joyero.

EL COLOR DEL ANILLO

En la mayoría de casos el oro blanco es el material más preciado para la selección de un anillo de pedida. Pero, existen más metales para este tipo de anillo. Existen diferentes tipos de oro, el rosa, el amarillo y el blanco. Para la correcta elección del color debemos tener en cuenta el tono de piel de su pareja, para que así el brillo de este sea recalcado a la hora de llevarlo. Otro material sería la plata, aunque este material es menos longevo que el oro de cualquier tipo.

ELECCIÓN DE LA PIEDRA

La elección de la piedra es una decisión de máxima importancia. Es el elemento predilecto a la hora de los anillos de pedida. Existen diferentes tipos de piedras.

El diamante, la joya predilecta para este tipo de anillos, la piedra más buscada y la más. Otorga lujo, clase y estilo al anillo.

La moissanita, un elemento muy parecido al diamante a la vista. 

El zafiro, la piedra que simboliza la pureza es una opción que también triunfaría entre los anillos de pedida. 

El rubí, que simboliza la pasión, es una perfecta elección para transmitir ese sentimiento a tu futura esposa. 

Y por último, la esmeralda, que transmite el sentimiento de amor verdadero.

ALGUNOS DE NUESTROS ANILLOS DE COMPROMISO

El día que alguien pide matrimonio a su pareja es un día para recordar eternamente. Es un antes y un después en una relación. Es por eso que el anillo debe estar a la altura de la situación.
