The Perfect Holiday Gift – A Guide to La Marqueuse Jewellery

The holiday season for many of us is a time to seek out meaningful ways to honour the ones closest to our hearts. We search for the perfect gift through which their unique stories can be celebrated. Jewellery has been a significant part of culture since ancient times, becoming something more than a gift. A proof of emotions. A promise. A tradition passed down from generation to generation.

What makes La Marqueuse jewellery the ultimate gift?

At La Marqueuse, the luxury is defined by our own rhythm of craftsmanship and a profound respect for handcraft. La Marqueuse jewellery is crafted in our Warsaw Atelier, where we supervise each project from the first sketch to the final polish. Our independent approach to design and production enables us to bring our clients’ creative visions to life, crafting bespoke pieces tailored individually to their desires. We are fully transparent about the origin of our gemstones, as they are all ethically sourced. Every La Marqueuse creation is crafted with profound respect for the natural beauty of the stones, in accordance with CIBJO international standards.   Our coloured gemstones are selected with extraordinary care - for their tone, saturation, and unique character - forming the distinctive La Marqueuse palette, built over years of thoughtful exploration. It includes cool bluish-green emeralds, refined Ceylon sapphires, Lagoon tourmalines of deep, luminous green, and diamonds in warm copper-brown hues, each chosen with meticulous attention to clarity and depth of colour.

Why is gold jewellery the ideal holiday gift?

What makes gold so special is the fact that it holds an immense and timeless value, emotional, cultural, and material, making it a luxurious choice for a gift. At La Marqueuse, we use 785 and 585 gold fineness, both serving as the perfect balance of aesthetics and durability, ensuring the quality that will accompany their wearer for years to come.

What distinguishes yellow, white, and rose gold?

The colour of gold depends on the alloy used alongside pure gold. Yellow gold is created with silver and copper; its warm hue will beautifully enhance the tones of coloured gemstones. White gold is achieved by adding copper, palladium, or silver, making it a timeless choice for diamond jewellery. Rose gold, on the other hand, owes its colour to copper, with each Maison having its own secret formula. La Marqueuse rose gold is known for its refined, peach-cool tone, a shade that pairs exquisitely with diamonds and sapphires.

Choose your perfect jewellery holiday gift

The colour that evokes the festive season most vividly is a deep, festive red. Rubies, after diamonds, are the hardest precious stone. That makes them not only beautiful but remarkably enduring. They symbolise the essence and power of life and possess one of the richest cultural heritages of all gemstones, appearing in significant texts across civilizations for thousands of years. La Marqueuse rubies are distinguished by their sought-after wine-red hue. Ruby jewellery is therefore the ideal choice when seeking a luxurious holiday gift infused with historical symbolism. For those wishing to gift something truly unique, our baroque pearls or black diamonds might be the perfect choice. For those wishing to celebrate the beauty of Polish nature, the Ambre collection offers amber in warm, subtle tones of exceptional depth. Last but not least, for lovers of timeless design, La Marqueuse diamond necklaces will serve as the expression of refined elegance.
