We welcome spring with a tribute to wedding jewellery!
Spring and Summer are definitely the favorite seasons for a couple to plan their wedding. The sunny weather invites us to organize our wedding as we have dreamed of, with a variety of options available for both the venue, the decor, the wedding dress and of course the jewellery. We begin our tribute with the wedding rings, the jewellery that is the protagonist of the wedding, symbolizing the bond and the beginning of the couple's journey together.

How do I choose the perfect wedding rings?Have you already said yes with the solitaire ring he has given you? Then it's time for you to choose the second most important ring of your life. How will you choose the perfect rings for you? It probably sounds simple, but it's not, since beyond aesthetics and taste, there are other factors to consider. Don't forget that this is a piece of jewellery that you will wear every day. The most important thing is to find the ring that suits both your personality and the demands of your daily life.

Here are some tips to help you find the perfect wedding rings for your wedding.
1.Start your research early:Many couples wait until the last minute to choose their wedding rings, thinking it's a simple process. It's a good idea to start your research three to four months before the wedding, especially if you want to have a special design made for you.2.Define the money you have to spend:How much do wedding rings cost and what is the amount you should set aside? The rings available on the market are varied and prices can range from 300 euros a couple to over 5,000. The factors that influence their cost are their material (gold, white gold, platinum, etc.), the carat grade (18K or 14K), their weight, their design and decorative elements such as exterior designs and precious stones.3.Choose the material:Once you have set the amount you want to spend on your wedding rings, the next step is to choose your material. Gold, platinum, titanium, but even palladium, tungsten or silver. There is a metal for every aesthetic and... budget.
i.Gold plugs
Like diamond for solitaire rings, gold is the most classic and widespread metal for wedding rings. The choices are many in both design, sizes, carvings, and shades of white, yellow and pink. Just like the "little black dress", gold wedding rings are always in fashion and can be easily combined with other jewellery and any look. For more durability and shine, choose 18K or 14K gold.

ii.Platinum screwsPlatinum is an expensive choice in metal, but its durability will not disappoint. Platinum can withstand the wear and tear of time, and it won't oxidize or fade, so it never loses its shine.

4.Choose the wedding ring that matches your everyday life and aesthetics
Once you have settled on the material of the wedding ring the next step is to come up with the style of the ring.You can find a wide variety of designs and many different suggestions. Classic wedding rings, modern, romantic, hammered, sandblasted or grained, two-tone, curved or plain, matte or shiny, with or without diamonds, the list of options and different styles is very long.

Choose the ring that you really like but keep in mind that you will be wearing this ring every day for many years, so make sure it doesn't get in the way of your everyday life. Its shape, weight and width are elements that will determine how comfortable it will be. So make sure to try different designs before you settle on one. Although there are no strict rules, we would advise that when you do your research, you should also bring your moniker with you so that you can pair it with your wedding ring. They don't have to match perfectly, of course. But it would definitely help you in your choice to see how these two rings look together, which, after all, could be worn on the same hand. Men are not used to wearing jewellery and usually want a ring that is simple and lightweight, so that it doesn't hinder their movements. Their most common choice in metal is white or yellow gold. If the bride-to-be wants her wedding ring in a different color of gold or with a more striking design, it is perfectly acceptable for the couple to choose two different rings.
5. Think about what you want engraved on the insideThe rings symbolize the union, the bond and the love of the couple. They are usually engraved internally with the name of our partner, the date of marriage or acquaintance, and sometimes couples choose to engrave a small phrase or word that is important to them.

Like our wardrobe, our jewellery is made up of evening, casual and formal pieces. What is the criterion by which we choose jewellery for our everyday looks? Finally, which jewellery is the white t-shirt and jeans of our jewellery collection?Although we can say that there is no rule of thumb and that the choice always depends on the style and mood of each woman, British Vogue suggests upscale simplicity as a synonym for everyday jewellery and we couldn't agree more.
Rings: Α favorite everyday choice
We often choose rings as everyday jewellery while some of them we don't part with at all, either because of their sentimental value or simply because they suit us and are easily combined with every outfit we wear. We have selected and recommend below minimal ethereal rings, but also some more chunky rings, the so-called chunky rings, which have been established and are a safe choice to make our look more interesting.

Earrings: Emphasizing Femininity
Earrings are the jewellery that can catch the eye and that is why it is important to be able to choose the right one, in order to have a balanced look. For everyday looks, for work or for an afternoon stroll, we suggest choosing something simple, such as small hoops or stud earrings. You can however make a difference in colour or specificity of design.

Necklace: The jewellery that expresses our characterA necklace can enhance our outfit, our style and our character. In recent years, a trend that is still very popular is layering, the combination of several necklaces (usually delicate chains with pendants). Often the necklaces symbolize something, such as our zodiac sign or name, or refer to our family or loved one. See below for our suggestions of understated necklaces that can be worn alone or combined in layering.

Montblanc is inspired by the pioneering spirit of Phileas Fogg and presents the new Montblanc Meisterstück Around the World in 80 Days collection, which includes the LeGrand & Classique, Doué and Solitaire editions. The collection brings to life the fascinating stories of Fillea Fogg during his journey around the world. It is the well-known novel written by Jules Verne in 1872, inspired by the new travel possibilities of the Victorian era. The hero of the book, Phileas Fogg, bets his entire fortune, claiming that he could leave London by train on 2 October, travel around the world passing through Suez, Mumbai, Hong Kong, Yokohama, San Francisco, New York, and return to London on 21 December.Using steamships and trains, and an elephant, Fogg proves that almost anything is possible when one is determined and committed to a cause.
The Montblanc collection tells the story of Phileas Fogg's adventure through various patterns and colours. The deep blue and ripples refer to his journey at sea, from the Suez Canal to Mumbai. The steamship drawn on the cap of the collection's pens symbolizes the main means of transportation for the book's heroes. Also, on the clip we notice the symbol of the black ace of spades which refers to the card game that was the reason for Phileas Fogg's bet.
The Solitaire version also uses the balloon as a design linked to the story of Jules Verne. Although it is not used as a medium, the balloon is inextricably linked to the mythology that accompanies the book since there is the idea of the hero travelling with it.
Discover the collection and embark, together with Phileas Fogg, on his magical journey.

Each sign is associated with a precious or semi-precious stone, also known as the lucky stone of the sign. In ancient times, and in more recent times, it was believed that each stone had its own special properties, many of which were healing. The history of gemstones was linked to the planets and astrologers believed that they were a kind of talisman for their owner, offering protection, luck and good energy. We present below the main stone corresponding to each sign of the zodiac, as well as its main characteristics.
ARIES 21/3-20/4
Aries, considered the leader of the zodiac, has as its lucky stone the diamond, the most expensive and hardest gemstone. Diamond symbolizes strength and leadership, protects health and is believed to bring good luck to its wearer.
TAURUS 21/4-20/5
The stone that corresponds to the sign of Taurus is sapphire. Its most common colour is blue, but if blue is not to your taste, you can choose another shade. Sapphire has also been described as a royal stone and is associated with the declaration of love, commitment and romance. It symbolizes wisdom, faith and kindness and gives spiritual clarity to anyone who wears it.
GEMINI 21/5-21/6
The Gemini stone is agate which is associated with calmness, positive thoughts and goodness. It is also attributed with healing properties associated with our nervous system.
CANCER 22/6-22/7
Emerald, with its bright green color, is the stone of Cancer. It symbolizes hope and tranquility, and is thought to cultivate mental fortitude and courage, providing protection for those in the zodiac who are sensitive.
LEO 23/7-22/8
Leo's stone is onyx, a striking black quartz that often displays white stripes. The story of onyx comes from mythology. Cupid cut the nails of the goddess Aphrodite with an arrow while she slept and left the pieces on the sand. The Fates later turned them into a stone, onyx. Onyx has protective properties and it is recommended to carry it with you when travelling. It is also said to help fight our fears and heal mental wounds.
VIRGIN 23/8-22/9
The stone of Virgo is carnelian, a red form of chalcedony, also known as the stone of self-respect. It is thought to contribute to concentration and focus, being a source of high intellect. It protects the wearer and gives them luck and self-esteem.
LIBRA 23/9-23/10
If you are a Libra, then the stone that corresponds to your sign is the beautiful peridot. Peridot is a stone that is considered to have a lot of energy and acts as a magnet attracting abundance, health, beauty and professional success.
SCORPIO 24/10-22/11
Scorpio's lucky stone is morganite, a variety of betrellus with a sweet pink hue. It is the stone of supreme love that will help you to have positive thoughts and communicate in a meaningful way with the people you care about. Morganite also has excellent healing abilities. It helps with respiratory and nervous system problems, helping to combat stress.
SAGITTARIUS 23/11-21/12
The stone of Sagittarius is the blue topaz. It is a stone renowned for its multiple properties. It is believed to bring balance to the wearer and makes them more receptive to love. It encourages expressiveness, honesty and self-control and protects us from mental disorders.
CAPRICORN 22/12-20/1
Ruby, also known as the king of gemstones, is the Capricorn stone. Ruby is believed to bring health and success to its wearer, while giving him beauty and giving him love and joy. However, because red is the color of love, but also of danger, the person wearing the ruby is said to be able to sense upcoming difficulties or misfortunes.
ΑQUARIUS 21/1-19/2
Garnet is the lucky stone of Aquarius. It is a stone that offers relief to whoever wears it, while helping them to make the right decisions and analyze the causes of their problems.
PISCES 20/2-20/3
The Pisces stone is the beautiful amethyst. Amethyst spiritually protects the wearer by giving them inner peace and tranquility. It is also believed to help us get rid of bad habits and addictions.

Jewellery suggestions to shine at the parties!
Chunky chains
Chunky chains are a trend that we've seen everywhere, on haute couture runways, on Instagram, and even in advertisements for well-known clothing brands. We love them because they can add intensity and sparkle to a simple and minimal look, and can be an affordable option.
TipsTo show off the chain around your neck, you can pair it with a V-neck shirt or blouse.
Rich Passion necklace with silver 925
Statement necklace
Like chains, statement necklaces are usually chunky and bold and can ideally accompany a minimal outfit. The options are many, such as boho, rock, bold etc. You can choose the style that will best suit your outfit aesthetic.
Tips
If you wear an oversized necklace, pair it with a ring rather than earrings. If your necklace is long enough, prefer to wear it over a monochrome dress or turtleneck.

Pearls
Pearls are synonymous with elegance and classic style. In recent years, however, fashion trends have established a modern and fresh version that can be combined with a casual and evening look, and can be worn by all ages.

Gold chain with pendant
Pendants are a trend that is here to stay. It is a piece of jewellery that can be worn either on its own or in combination with other necklaces in different lengths.
Tips
Choose a pendant with colour and sparkle for your reverie. Even if it's the only piece of jewellery you wear, this detail will make a difference, adding a festive mood to your look.
See more pendants in our e-shop.
Long earrings
Long earrings with precious stones are a piece of jewellery that we don't easily choose for our everyday looks. Christmas Eve is a good occasion to wear them.
Tips
The options are many, but the rule of thumb is one. Bold statement earrings, whether they are Chandelier or Dalida type earrings, should not be paired with necklaces. If you absolutely want to add another piece of jewellery, go for a ring or bracelet.
