Creating Memories with Generational Jewelry
at Kim's Jewelers in Holmdel, NJ

Engagement ring stone

Although an engagement ring is a highly personal piece of jewelry, many families like to keep the center stone of relatives' engagement rings within the family. For example, here at Kim's Jewelers, we have set engagement rings for granddaughters using the grandmothers' center engagement ring stone. This often makes for a unique, sentimental and historical ring that makes the ring extra special.

Pearl necklace and earring set

Although pearls go in and out of mainstream style, here at Kim's Jewelers we consider them a classic jewelry staple. Currently, pearls happen to be on trend. On trend or not, pearls have been known to be passed around with in families as a tradition since they were first historically worn as jewelry. Often a gift for milestone occasions such as graduations or birthdays, pearls are the perfect gift to pass down to commemorate milestones with in each generation.

Diamond stud earrings

Countless surveys reveal that earrings are the most often purchased piece of jewelry. Diamond stud earrings, in particular, can be found in many people's jewelry collections. Because they are possibly the most versatile modern day earring, diamond studs are the ideal gift to pass down from one generation to the next. Often the giver will "upgrade" to either larger sized stones, higher quality diamonds or a combination of both.

Watches

Many people may think watches are no longer worn much in the age of the cellular phone, but here at Kim's Jewelers, we have not found this to be the case. We have replaced a countless number of watch batteries and have sold several watches despite the ubiquitousness of cellular phones. Luxury watches, which often hold investment value, are widely known to be passed down within families, especially when there is a watch collector in the family!

Favorite piece

Perhaps the most obvious generational piece of jewelry within a family is the "favorite" piece. Whether it is a unique pendant, a colorful gemstone ring or a pretty bracelet, any piece of jewelry can become a special generational piece if it possesses meaning to the giver and receiver.

Fine jewelry does have monetary value, but far more valuable is the sentimental value it often possesses. We invite you to come visit our store where we will help you select jewelry that will last not only for your lifetime, but for generations to come.
