The story of the pearl ring, or a gift for a friend
 - Have you ever make gifts?
- What a stupid question?
- A gift girlfriend?
- Well, of course! - Raised eyebrows in disbelief, will deliver you. And you will be absolutely right. I also love to make gifts, especially her friends. But recently, it usually presents custom.


- Well, that's what you come up again? What kind of gifts on order? - You asked, surprised. Everything is very simple. Before the next birthday I call a friend and wondered what to give her. Maybe someone does seem strange, but for us this is the norm. It's easier to give it what it wants, not something that will gather dust on a shelf and wait in the wings, perhaps, to no avail.

That's what I did this year and calling his girlfriend Vera, received an answer to my question. But it so happened that I did not fulfill the request received, because going to a jewelry store, think about its relation to the products of pearls, and decided that I wanted to give her a ring with this stone.

I must say, my girlfriend Vera said that pearls need to get it as a gift, and in no case do not buy it myself, because then it will bring tears. Well, or at least, it can pay for itself is a decoration, but the choice has to do someone else, so to say see gasp and poke a finger! That's how we bought her a bracelet and a necklace of stones on display (but that's another story).

 The story of the pearl ring, or a gift for a friend


Articles made of pearls, acquired the methods described above, in its view, fulfills its intended purpose, ie, It brings its owner happy.

By the way, Pearl is considered to be perhaps one of the most mysterious talismans . Most likely, this was due to the fact that he is the living stone: has the capacity to grow. It is known that in nature there are different types of pearls that differ in shape, size and color (the color of pearls varies from milky - white to purple-black). In ancient times, the representatives of some Indian tribes ascribed special power of large pearls regular round shape and considered them sacred.

In the old days Pearl is also considered an indicator of the state of human health   and if you suddenly lost the talisman his amazing brilliance (stone could fade, and its surface sometimes becomes rough due to the external environment), which meant that its owner can become seriously ill. That is why the pearl was considered a powerful talisman that shield its owner from sudden death and assassination attempts on his life.

Besides that, Pearl is considered a symbol of chastity . Unmarried girls who wear necklaces of pearls, are very gentle, but at the same time, very happy in marriage, they become good housewives and mothers; They are a real boon for men and true homemaker.

So, I decided that my gift this year will be the product with pearls, and that ring. Since we often went together with a friend on a jewelry store, I dared to make such a major purchase in the hope that will not be mistaken with the choice of either model ornaments, nor its size. However, it happened that more than anything caused me a feeling of apprehension and fear, I made a mistake. But since I wanted a gift that does not gather dust in a casket with other forgotten trinkets, I offered to exchange the Faith and the choice of jewelry has gained in return. Doubtfully, girlfriend agreed. Later, she asked me:

- Why did you decide to do just that and buy me another gift?

Without thinking, I said that the gift of mine came from the heart, and I wanted her to wear it with pleasure, and that he brought her only joy, especially since I knew that she never would have bought myself such a thing myself, but or refused to receive it as a gift.

 The story of the pearl ring, or a gift for a friend
   In search of a new decoration, we spent a lot of hours, and it was already desperate, but in the final product, I think accidentally slipped on the showcase, and saw a set of earrings and ring, I realized that it was her thing!

And so it happened, and after a few minutes my friend became the owner of this set.

 The story of the pearl ring, or a gift for a friend
   A ring, which she did not come, was given another friend, especially because soon she was to be his birthday.


From this story, I made a few conclusions:

- To buy a gift decorations, the easiest and most sure-fire way - purchase a gift card at a jewelry store.

- If you still decide to do a friend a surprise, it is possible to recommend a preliminary raid on shopping with her and look at her addiction.

- The easiest, in my opinion, to buy earrings, necklace or bracelet. But if you are not looking for the easy way and just want to buy the ring, during the joint shopping trip I suggest you also pay attention to the size of the ring, and on what finger she usually tries this ornament. You can also try the same decoration and remember the sensations from his presence on the hand.

- If you decide to opt for decorating with rocks, I suggest you learn map Zodiacal mascots . In addition, when giving the gift can come up with a short story about the stone, its properties, as well as a reminder that this gift can become a kind of amulet.
