Gold is almost always a fine choice for an item of jewelry.
|
And diamonds are you know who's best friend.

Feeling romantic? A string of pearls may be the perfect choice. |
There's a wide choice in jewelry with an equine theme, certainly with gold and diamonds in mind, not to mention silver, pewter and other precious and semi-precious stones. You can even get a string of pearls with a equine-themed pendant.
(Just between you and me and our horses, I think a string of pearls with only pearls is nicest.)

Celtic Horse Jewelry
While there's an abundance of celtic jewelry on the market, celtic jewelry with an equine theme can be difficult to find. The striking feature Celtic design is the unbroken knot or string.
