Hopefully this year we'll be able to get out and celebrate Valentine's Day (if that's your thing!)
After all the ups and downs of the last two years now's a great opportunity to send a gift to someone special, not just your partner.
You could send a thank you to friends for being there or send a gift to someone who you know needs a pick-me-up.

2. Unique Valentine gift for him: Spitfire cufflinks made with original fuselage
Our Spitfire cufflinks allow the wearer to own a unique piece of British History.
We have been fortunate to acquire some original pieces of the iconic Supermarine Spitfire fuselage. We take small sections of the fuselage and set them in 15mm square sterling silver cufflinks.
These aviation cufflinks make ideal gifts for anyone with an interest in World War II history, and are often given as a gift to pass down through the generations.
3. A unique ring for that special man: Made from Spitfire or Meteorite
Who says that women can't propose or buy their man a ring? Our men's rings also make great alternative wedding rings.
On the left the ring is made out of Muonionalusta Meteorite - a two billion year old meteorite. On the right the ring is made out of original fuselage from a Spitfire plane.
Everyone loves to wear something that makes them feel special and stand out, and these unique sterling silver rings do just that.
4. Delicate and pretty Shiva Eye shell pendants: Shiva Eye Collection
We love our new collection of delicate Shiva eye pendants and earrings.
Simple and dainty they can be worn with any outfit and are a very reasonable price of £29 to £49
Shiva Eye is a natural gem, and the protective doorway of the Turban snails shell. When the snails life come to an end and sinks to the sea bed, the Shiva eye detaches.
5. Uniquely British gifts: Blue John jewellery
One of our favourite pendants this season – a beautiful piece of Blue John set in a delicate sterling silver tree of life. This pendant is also reversible, with Blue John showing on the back, so you are getting two pendants for the price of one.
Blue John is found only in one location in the whole world – Castleton in the UK's stunning Peak District, and specifically in the Blue John Cavern and Treak Cliff Cavern. Blue John is becoming increasingly rare and only a small amount is allowed to be mined each year.
