As we mentioned in our blog post with the Ultimate Gift Guide for Men we find women to be easier to buy for over the holidays. So the hardest part about making our ulitmate holiday gift guide for women was narrowing down our choices. We tried to balance our gift guide between personal items and things for the home.
We love the uniqueness of each of our gift selections and can imagine the joy on women's faces when they receive a carefully curated, hand crafted gift from Italy. There is something so special, so thoughtful that makes women smile and leaves a lasting memory for them.
This guide is also great to pass on to the men in your life with a little nudge of ideas that would make you so happy to unwrap. So let's get to it and discover the treasures we picked. Of course there are many more options so explore our site and see if you agree with our selections. Then let us take over and deliver the items to your door, ready for holiday gift giving joy!
Have fun shopping our ultimate gift guide for women:
The Green Peridot ring is a beautiful combination of gemstones and flirty fun style. Sabina has been passionate about gemstones for most of her life. She loves seeking out the finest gemstones and then having fun with the design and mixture of stones. The cut of the green peridot catches the light beautifully. The gold and diamonds swirl elegantly around the stunning green peridot. The playful sophistication of this ring add to the uniqueness of this one of a kind piece. The ring pairs beautifully with the matching pair of Green Peridot earrings.
The gorgeous Mamita Filigree earrings are handcrafted using Etruscan lost wax techniques which have been part of the culture in Sardinia for centuries. The Mamita filigree earrings are an exquisite example of round filigree work. There is a dramatic contrast between the filigreed disc and the smooth tear drop shape. The contrast in textures makes a dramatic statement with any outfit. The filigree wraps around the disc like a shell found on the white sand beaches lining the Sardinian coast where each pair of Mamita earrings is handmade in a small workshop of talented artisans.
Blue and green crystals mix with brass seed beads and a filigree clasp to form the beautiful Andromeda bracelet. The intricate bead work, all done by hand by Giuliana, is a testament to the passion of Italian artisans. This bracelet is an amazing gift for any woman who loves unique handmade pieces and loves to add a little flair to her outfits.
One of our favorite bags is the Eutropia leather bag. The attention to detail, both inside and out is fantastic on this handmade bag. It is available in this stunning blue or a beautiful pink. It is the perfect bag for work or travel. But don't take our word for it, this is a review from one of our customers, Kat: "This bag is an absolute work of art. The blue is the perfect shade and it is well structured. A perfect piece." We totally agree with Kat. The bag is made in Marche and designed by the exceptional Stefania.
We have been coveting this ring since we started working with Lorenzo. The detail of the floral bouquet, including the delicate burnishing of each flower petal, is exceptional. The unique design of the Floral Bouquet silver ring allows it to cascade along your finger. Lorenzo's deep passion for jewelry design is obvious in this statement ring. It pairs beautifully with the flower silver earrings he created.
Do you have a woman in your life who loves to entertain? If so, then the Olive Wood salad servers are the perfect gift. As you know, salad servers need to look good as often as we use them to serve our guests. The hand crafted Olive Wood salad servers allow you to serve the salad gently and gracefully while looking stunning at the table.
This new addition to our company has become an instant favorite. The Pink Boho Ceramic plate is fun and playful and would make a great serving plate, or centerpiece on a decorative table or better yet mix and match with the other ceramic plates to create a beautiful dish set. The ceramic dinner plate is hand painted with a feminine woman joined with birds. It is a beautiful mix of femininity and nature.
From the same artisan who makes the ceramic plates, Dalila, comes The Perfect Place Ceramic sculpture. We love the playfulness on her lovely face highlighted by the beautiful periwinkle eyes. In a precarious position the bird, painted in 24kt gold, rests in her hair, at once joining nature and femininity. It is a beautiful piece for any home.
Each of these pieces can be shipped to your door for the holidays. But don't wait too long to order since they are each handmade some of them can take a few weeks to ship, so order now and then spend your holiday season relaxing knowing you are going to make someone's holiday a great one by giving them a unique gift from Italy. You will also be making the holidays special for each artisan who sells their work for Christmas, your purchase is not another number on a bottom line, it is supporting art, culture, and individuality and of course sustainability.
