Elegant 16th Birthday Jewellery

Receiving your first real piece of jewellery is an enchanting experience, and our collection of 16th birthday jewellery is crafted to ensure that this moment is unforgettable. Every item in our collection can be personalised to make it as truly unique as the person donning it.

May's birthstone is the emerald. Exquisite and classy, the May Birthstone - Emerald Sterling Silver Crystal Stud Earrings exemplify that elegance combined with meaningfulness you want when the occasion calls for a gift—especially one that marks a milestone like a sweet sixteen, as these earrings are perfect for. Beautiful yet simple in construction, the earrings suffice any day as an outfit's wardrobe staple. You can get them in any of the twelve birthstone colours.

For anyone in search of a necklace for a 16th birthday that narrates an ongoing tale, our 'Happy Birthday' Personalised Age Heart Necklace blends fashionable elegance with heartfelt sentiment. It comes on a card, with a hand-drawn bunting design, that adds a playful touch to the presentation. The necklace—composed of sterling silver—is a classic. You can make it truly unique by personalising the gift. Engrave your special recipient's age and a secret message only they will know.


Personalised 16th Birthday Gifts

Making a gift personal turns it into something extra-special—what might have been a lovely present is now given added magic. When it comes to birthday gifts, this is especially true, and even more so for 16th birthdays, which mark the growing-up moment when adolescence is embraced like it or not. Gifting 16-year-olds with something etched or embroidered with their name or initials will ensure the kind of present they'll remember long after this year of their lives has passed.

The 16th Birthday 2009 Five Pence 5p Coin Necklace Pendant is possibly our most poignant piece and is very special to us. Why? Because it has been handcrafted from a genuine 2009 five pence coin, and we think most sixteen-year-olds today were born in 2009. But, what makes this pendant even more unique is that you can have it engraved , allowing you to add a date, a few special words, or even the names of some friends with whom your beloved will celebrate this half-decade milestone.

Our 'Happy Birthday' Personalised Age Heart Bracelet offers yet another gorgeous means to celebrate with personalisation. The adjustable sterling silver bracelet grows with them, whilst the laser-engraved wooden presentation card featuring birthday bunting makes for a particularly memorable unboxing experience. It's these little touches that make our gifts so special and show just how much you care.


Perfect 16th Birthday Gifts for Him

It can be difficult to choose the right gifts for young men turning 16, but our collection holds refined pieces that appeal to boys on the brink of manhood. We know that 16-year-olds are developing a style all their own, and our selection reflects that emerging individuality. For those seeking broader inspiration, our Gifts for Sons collection offers an extensive range of sophisticated options perfect for this milestone birthday.

The Milestone Birthday Year Button Covers are an excellent choice for him. They are sophisticated accessories that work well for special occasions and, unlike other birthday gifts, can be used long after the day has passed. These contemporary button covers are made to resemble cufflinks, and they work like cufflinks, but they're not cufflinks. They come in two attractive finishes—silver and gunmetal. They are presented in a quality box that also works as a cufflink box. Engraving is available, too.

The coin necklace is also appealing to many young men, combining masculine and meaningful qualities in one piece. Its connection to their birth year makes it personal, whilst its sleek design ensures it's something they'll wear with pride.


Ideal 16th Birthday Gifts for Her

Choosing the perfect 16th birthday present can also be a challenge, but we offer a stunning collection of pieces that accomplish both of the dual aims we believe a gift should achieve: 1. Celebrate femininity and the transition from girlhood to womanhood. 2. Be sophisticated enough to suit her yet still embody the fun and joyfulness of being 16. Our Gifts for Daughters collection showcases an array of elegant pieces designed specifically for this special milestone.

Necklaces and bracelets that feature hearts are especially popular. When it comes to selecting a piece of jewellery, the heart design is a sweet choice, not to mention an elegant one when it is rendered in sterling silver. You can also attach extra meaning to your gift by personalising the presentation card on which the necklace or bracelet set hangs.

Earrings made from birthstones are as personal as fine jewellery can get. Each stone is cut to a perfect 6mm diameter—using the colours of the twelve different birthstones that exist in the world. You may or may not know that birthstone colours do not look the same in all lighting conditions, and even under direct light, they can vary based on the angle from which you're viewing them. So, when picking a stone, look at it in different lighting and from different angles.

If you're after 16th birthday decorations to finish off the birthday vibes or hunting for the ideal gift to commemorate this big ole sweet sixteen, our collection has something for every beautifully unique recipient. Whether you're shopping for Gifts for Teenagers or seeking specific Birthday Gift Ideas for Teenage Girl, our collection offers exceptional options. Designed, personalised, and hand-finished in our Sussex workshop, each piece is brimming with the love and attention to detail that makes all of our gifts stand out.

FAQs

What should I get someone for their 16th birthday?

A 16th birthday is an occasion that calls for something truly extraordinary and meaningful to celebrate this important milestone. You might consider personalised jewellery, like our birthstone earrings (which connect to the wearer's birth month) or our coin necklace (which is made from a genuine 2009 five pence piece, a meaningful item for anyone born that year). These two gifts for girls combine elegance with personal significance. Both pieces are ones that can be worn and treasured for a long, long time.


How can I make my daughter's 16th birthday special?

If we had to pick, we would say that our 'Happy Birthday' Personalised Age Heart Necklace is right up there with just the right amount of sentiment and a ton of style heft. Then there are her birthstone earrings, which we think are a super fine entry point into the world of fine jewellery for any girl about to become a young woman.


How can I make my son's 16th birthday special?

Honour the budding maturity of your boy with sophisticated gifts that mirror his developing style. Our Milestone Birthday Year Button Covers offer a contemporary accessory perfect for the next big occasion, whilst our coin necklace provides a meaningful reminder of the year he was born. Both pieces bridge the gap to young adulthood in terms of their design sensibility.
