Abbott Lyon’s £299 12-day advent calendar is filled with jewellery
There’s something uniquely delightful about unwrapping a new piece of exquisite jewellery each day as Christmas nears. As the festive season approaches, some of our favourite brands have unveiled their glittering advent calendar offerings, including Abbott Lyon’s 12-day ‘Made More You’ advent calendar, which is a real treat for jewellery lovers.
Retailing at £299 – a saving of £201 if you were to buy the pieces separately – the ‘Made More You’ advent calendar is available in both silver and gold, filled with 12 different boxes overflowing with charms, jewels, chains and earrings tailored to your taste. Valued at over £500, the box itself is equally stunning and can be repurposed as a storage box once opened.
Designed to mimic a storybook, the advent calendar can be personalised with a name printed on the front and features a charming ribbon neatly tucked between the lid – utterly adorable.
Inside, you’ll find bracelets, necklaces, charms and rings, all finished with Abbott Lyon’s signature water, sweat and heat-resistant finish that ensures zero tarnishing – perfect for those who live in their jewellery. Plus, they come nestled in a fabric bag for safekeeping until they’re opened, as The Manchester Evening News first reported.
The personalisation extends beyond the front cover, as you’re required to select your birthstone and initial during your order, allowing a few items inside to be customised for you or the recipient. Some of these items include the brand’s popular mini initial pendant and sphere chain, which have been adored by celebrities such as Stacey Solomon and Vicky Pattison.
With an impressive array of high-quality jewellery pieces inside – some of which can be beautifully stacked – it’s no surprise that the calendar has consistently received five-star reviews over the years. One satisfied jewellery enthusiast, who purchased the 2023 calendar before Christmas, said: “My 14-year-old daughter is on her 5th day of the Advent Calendar and has loved everything so far. The quality is great and the personalization makes it extra special.
“I would definitely recommend. “Another commented: “Wife loves it. Very well presented, quality as you would expect, 5-stars.”And a third person described it as ‘absolutely beautiful’.
Additionally, when you spend over £79, you receive a free bracelet worth £49.
Another jewellery countdown you might want to consider is Say It With’s Advent Calendar, £220. Available at Debenhams, our very own Eve Rowlands opened up this festive offering – and she was certainly impressed.
She said: “As a jewellery lover, you can’t go wrong at all with this advent calendar. It has necklaces, earrings and bracelets – plus a £50 spending voucher – always a welcome treat.”
“The only thing that could improve the Say It With calendar would be to have the option of having it stocked with your chosen metal – i.e. silver or gold, especially if it’s being given as a gift, as it would be a shame for any of the gorgeous pieces of jewellery to gather dust”, said another shopper, as they mentioned what they thought the product was missing.
Abbott Lyon isn’t the sole jewellery brand to launch a sparkling advent calendar. Missoma’s offering one valued at £827 but shoppers can buy it for £395.
If you’re more inclined towards beauty products, Boots offers an extensive selection of beauty advent calendars, including the No7 The Ultimate 25 Day Beauty Advent Calendar priced at £175 but boasting a value of £514.39.
