Top Graduation Gifts from Lulu + Belle: Timeless Gifts for New Beginnings - Lulu + Belle ® Jewellery

Graduation season is well underway, and it’s the perfect excuse to treat the graduates in your life to something really special. They’ve put in the hard work and powered through late nights (thanks to a lot of caffeine), so now it’s time for a little gift to celebrate this huge accomplishment! We’ve put together a few of our favourite pieces that would make amazing graduation gifts, starting with a piece that’s both meaningful and personal.

  1. AFFIRMATION PERSONALISED NECKLACE

Our Affirmation Personalised Necklace in silver or rolled gold is all about empowerment! Think of it as a wearable pep talk, something your graduate can keep close as they embark on their next big adventure. Whether it’s a soothing word, a favourite inside joke, or something you and the graduate always say to each other, this necklace lets you say it in style.

The 16mm disc has room for up to 18 characters, making it ideal for short affirmations, meaningful dates, or even a special phrase in Irish. We can even hand-stamp fadas, so the words look just as you intend them to. With a dainty star stamped right onto the disc, this necklace gives off amazing positive energy!

As they head into new experiences, they’ll have a beautiful reminder of your unconditional support.

 

  1. 9KT GOLD FRESHWATER PEARL NECKLACE

For our next pick, we’re introducing something extra-special: our 9kt Gold Freshwater Pearl Necklace. A piece of pearl jewellery is often a young woman’s first step into the world of elegance, and this necklace is the perfect choice for a milestone like a graduation. With a single, hand-selected freshwater pearl on a dainty 9k gold chain, it’s the kind of piece that suits any occasion, whether they’re headed to their first job interview or celebrating on a night out.

Why This Necklace Makes a Perfect Graduation Gift:

  • Pearls are symbols of wisdom and new beginnings, a beautiful nod to this exciting next chapter.
  • It’s a timeless piece, made from high-quality materials that will last.
  • The design is classic but modern, perfect for any style, from casual to formal.

Each pearl is unique, so no two necklaces are exactly alike. This means the gift you give is truly one of a kind, just like the graduate herself.

If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, check out our MIA Dainty Single Pearl Pendant, available in rolled gold or sterling silver. It’s just as lovely and still carries that same timeless charm!

  1. OVAL TRIO STARS EARRINGS

Next up in our graduation gift lineup is the Oval Trio Stars Earrings in silver, a perfect way to celebrate a graduate who’s truly a shining star!

These oval drop earrings are stamped with three North Stars: one large and two smaller ones, symbolizing a bright future ahead. Just as the North Star has guided travellers for centuries, these earrings serve as a reminder to your graduate that even during challenging times, you will always be there to help them along the way.

Crafted to be both meaningful and stylish, these earrings are a versatile addition to any jewellery collection. By gifting these beautiful starry earrings, you’re offering a heartfelt reminder that she should always follow her own light.

 

  1. STAMPED EDGE PERSONALISED NECKLACE

Last but certainly not least is our Stamped Edge Personalised Necklace in silver or gold. This necklace is all about making it special for the recipient. The 14mm disc can be customized with names, words, or dates, hand-stamped along the edge by our jewellery makers. Whether you’re marking the graduation date, adding initials, or even a word of encouragement, this piece can hold up to 14 characters to make their necklace completely personal.

And here’s the cherry on top: you can add a birthstone charm to make it even more special. This extra touch adds a splash of colour, and makes the necklace a beautiful keepsake for your graduate. Whether it's a peridot for August babies, or a vibrant amethyst for February, it’s a lovely way to add some personality to a piece that’s already full of meaning.

Personalisation Ideas:

  • Graduation date ("12.11.24")
  • Inspiring words like “Dream Big” or “You Can”
  • University initials (“UCD 2024”)
  • A meaningful acronym such as “TIJTB” (This is just the beginning)

This necklace is more than just a piece of jewellery, it’s a reminder of a huge academic achievement. And as they begin the next chapter of their lives, they'll have a little keepsake to remind them of how far they've come.

This piece is the perfect finishing touch to our graduation gift list! Each piece we’ve shared has its own story and style, making it easy to find the perfect fit for celebrating this huge accomplishment.
