Hint hint, husband, partner or that special someone! Whether you’re looking for a dazzling Valentine’s Day gift to surprise a loved one with, or some fabulous presents for your Gal-entines, we’ve got your back.

Lustre Jewellery for gemstones and more
Some have called rubies the gemstone of love – and it’s easy to see why. The enduring gem’s red-hot hue and fiery allure instantly evoke the feeling of passion and eternal romance.
At Lustre Jewellery, founded by jewellery designer Anaita Thakkar, you’ll find a range of jewellery pieces that put the ruby on centre stage. Take the gorgeous ruby ring and earrings from the latest Cardinal collection, for example. Each features a large statement ruby gemstone inset with pearls, symbolic of passion, energy and strength. For a softer interpretation, go for the Chandelier in Reds earrings which showcase an array of ruby, rose quartz and moonstone gemstones, or the Free Form Ruby earrings set with a multitude of red and pink rubies from Africa and Burma.
There are also ruby-adorned cuffs, necklaces, bracelets and more to suit your loved one’s taste. What makes Lustre’s jewellery pieces even more special is that each gemstone is all natural, boasting one-of-a-kind nuances and character – just like the unique love story you share.
