As the holidays quickly approach, we find ourselves already thinking about upcoming celebrations that require the perfect gift … or the perfect outfit. Both can feel daunting, but Nashville’s Diamond Cellar offers a stunning collection of jewelry that is timeless, elegant, and ideal for special occasion gifting and wearing.
We sat down with Diamond Cellar Fashion Buyer Sara Kravetsky to learn more about the jewelry trends we can expect to see this holiday season. Plus, she offers some advice on how to select the perfect piece for gifting!
JEWELRY TRENDS TO WATCH THIS HOLIDAY SEASON
Bold Gold Statements
According to Sara, gold is making a powerful comeback, particularly in statement jewelry. We can expect this trend to pop up in everything from oversized cuffs to chain necklaces and stackable rings (but more on stacking later!). Adding any of these pieces to your holiday ensemble is an easy way to add a subtle touch of glamor to your look.
To experiment with various bold, gold statement pieces, visit the Diamond Cellar store and peruse their collection of Chanel jewelry. “Our selection of Chanel jewelry brings layering to life,” says Sara. “Chanel pieces make it easy to mix, match, and layer for a look that’s both sophisticated and effortlessly chic.”
Colored Gemstones
For those who love a pop of color, you’re in luck! Vibrant-colored gemstones are hitting store shelves this holiday season, and Sara urges us to take special note of sapphires, emeralds, and rubies. You can find these stones in cocktail rings or necklace pendants, which add a playful and personalized touch to almost any holiday look.
“Diamond Cellar’s curated collection of colored gemstones is a standout for those drawn to color,” explains Sara. “The collection lets you embrace hues that range from deep emeralds to radiant sapphires, capturing individuality and flair.”
Layers, Layers, Layers
We’ve seen the layering trend pop up time and time again in the jewelry world, and this upcoming holiday season is no exception. A trend that continues to thrive in necklaces and bracelets, Sara encourages us to mix and match different lengths, metals, and textures to create a fun, dynamic look.
Diamond Cellar carries a collection of statement-making pieces from Italian jewelry designer Roberto Coin that are easy to stack and layer, including delicate chain necklaces and bracelets.
Sara adds that Diamond Cellar’s diamond Riviera necklaces are easy to layer, too. “These necklaces pair beautifully with initial pendants, creating a layered look that adds sparkle and personalization,” she explains. “This combination lets customers build their own unique style with a personal touch.”
GIFTING TIPS & TRICKS
Know Your Giftee’s Style
It may seem like a no-brainer, but Sara mentions people sometimes forget to consider their recipient’s personal style when gifting jewelry. It’s important to think about what type and style of jewelry your giftee typically wears, as this can help guide you when shopping.
Sara recommends asking yourself: Do they prefer bold statement pieces or more delicate, minimalist designs? Are they more into modern trends or classic, timeless jewelry?
From there, you’ll start to notice pieces that remind you of them, and the in-store experts will be better able to serve you, too!
Add a Personalized Touch
Adding a personal element to jewelry almost always makes it more meaningful to the recipient. This can include adding a birthstone, their initials, or even an engraved message. Diamond Cellar offers a wide range of customizable jewelry, including its selection of rings, necklaces, and earrings that can be personalized with any birthstone.
You can also consult one of Diamond Cellar’s experts to create an original piece based entirely on your recipient’s style. “We offer custom jewelry design services where you can collaborate with our expert jewelers to create a unique piece that reflects someone’s personality or tastes,” explains Sara. “Whether it’s a custom ring, necklace, or bracelet, a bespoke creation ensures a one-of-a-kind gift.”
Charms and amulets are another way to add a touch of personalization. Not to mention, it’s a gift that you can continue to add to over time. Sara recommends starting with a charm bracelet or necklace that allows you to build upon through different milestones (think anniversaries, birthdays, graduation, marriage, etc.). At Diamond Cellar, you can choose amulets and charms from well-known brands like David Yurman and Roberto Coin.

If you’re still unsure what jewelry to gift this holiday season — because, let’s face it, it can be overwhelming — Sara suggests visiting the Nashville store and seeking help from one of their experts: “Our team can offer personalized recommendations based on your budget, the recipient’s style, and current trends.”
