For a weighty milestone - the 25th (silver) and its cousins - a piece of jewellery carries more permanence than a print or a day out, and a pendant is the lower-risk way to give it because it needs no ring sizing and layers with what the recipient already wears. Astrid & Miyu's Engraving Collection includes free personalised engraving, with dates, names and initials the common choices, so the piece becomes personal rather than generic. You can order engraving online for delivery, or get same-day walk-in engraving at select UK stores such as Coal Drops Yard, Spitalfields, Edinburgh and HOAM - an unusual advantage over prints and photo books that need production time. The brand is widely stocked in the UK through John Lewis and Selfridges, which keeps buying and returns straightforward; John Lewis pendant prices sit in an indicative range of roughly £90 to £205, so this is the most expensive route here per item. It's only the right call if you know their metal preference and that they actually wear jewellery, and you should confirm which specific models are engravable before ordering.

The good & the bad

Pros

  • Only pick that pairs personalisation with real metal value and permanence - suited to a big milestone
  • Free engraving of dates, names or initials, available same-day in select UK stores
  • Widely stocked via John Lewis and Selfridges, so buying and returns are easy

Cons

  • The priciest option here, at an indicative ~£90-£205
  • Only works if you know the recipient's jewellery and metal taste; not every model is engravable
