Jewellery can be one of the most important things you ever wear, considering its permanence and the opportunity to imbue it with sentimental significance. No wonder, then, that most heirlooms come in the form of precious jewels and sparkling gems that are passed from generation to generation. Often, this means that they're out of reach for most thanks to eye-watering price tags. But what if you could find such treasures at a more affordable price, without sacrificing a high-quality look and feel?

Enter THOMAS SABO’s new collection, aptly titled Sparkling Heritage. Every piece pays homage to classic designs from the brand with styles available in sterling silver or sterling silver plated with 18k gold, all set with glimmering zirconia stones.
While these jewels are certainly pieces you'll want to wear forever, they are also perfect for this time of year, as we head towards Christmas. Not only will any of these gems make for ideal gifts, they're also exactly what you'd want to wear to any festive parties.

As well as beautiful princess-cut rings and earrings, there is also a particular piece that has been enjoying a renaissance of late: the tennis bracelet. Originally, such bracelets – formed by lines of diamonds – were worn by young women in the 1920s. Come 1978, tennis player Chris Evert had to stop playing during a US Open match when her own bracelet, featuring 29 diamonds, broke. 'That was my tennis bracelet,' she said in a post-match interview. The rest, as they say, is history.
Recently, more and more tennis bracelets have been spotted on Instagram, decorating the arms of some of fashion's coolest girls. And few are as dazzling as THOMAS SABO's, which are available in both silver and gold and cost less than £500 – although they look far more expensive.
In fact, prices in the collection start at just £49 for a lovely, baguette-cut ring, cementing these jewels as some of the most affordable dazzlers you'll find. So, what are you waiting for? In the immortal words of Matthew McConaughey, go frost yourself.
