One could argue that every day should be Valentine's Day. However, now it's February 14th that has a big red heart drawn around it in the calendar. It's supposed to be because of a saint who suffered hardships and eventually martyrdom for his cause. And perhaps there is a particular point in emphasizing love a little extra in the middle of the month that gives us the most of slush, ice, and rain.
Stockholms Auktionsverk has taken note of this and now presents the theme "A Gift of Love" with no less than 120 suggestions to show what you feel and think for someone. Indeed, a wrapped package with something sparkling inside is something quite special. And to be frank: a really nice ring can sometimes say more than a thousand poets' words.
If the ring isn't at the top of the wish list, there are also watches, bags, and other jewelry that may fit the bill. A Rolex Submariner with a glossy black dial makes a big impression among watch enthusiasts. The bracelet with two brilliant-cut diamonds totaling 5.00 carats (!) is sparklingly elegant. And the Loewe bag is a gem recognized only by the initiated. Those are three examples of the very finest. But the theme also includes delicate pieces for the smaller wallet. For instance, consider the small rose in coral, quite irresistible for those who want to sneak in some botanical flair at the cocktail party.
Don't forget that you can also make wishes for gifts and perhaps drop a hint to someone who needs a little help preparing for the 14th.
