Though we never need a reason to spoil the people we love, Valentine’s Day is one of those holidays that encourages us to celebrate and cherish our loved ones, whether that’s our partner, our parents or our friends. Though sweet treats like heart-shaped candy boxes are traditionally the most popular Valentine’s Day gift, jewelry isn’t far behind: In a 2021 Valentine’s Day survey, Offers.com found that flowers and jewelry were tied as the second most popular gift options after chocolate and candy.

To help you narrow down your Valentine’s Day gift search, we’ve gathered some jewelry gift options for every shopper and budget.
