Gone are the days of the typical supermarket chocolate advent calendar. We are now spoilt for choice over what lies behind those little doors, and for those of us who like something a little sparkly, the best jewellery advent calendars are how we get ourselves in the Christmas spirit.

This sparkling revolution brings us necklaces, bracelets, rings, or earrings from some of the most sought-after labels, usually with many calendar exclusives and extra treats sprinkled in.

At first I was sceptical about these advent calendars. The majority cost over £200, but when you consider the RRP of just a few of the items, you’ll realise how much you’ll be saving overall. Even better, most calendars provide plenty of regifting potential alongside being a fun festive treat for yourself.

I’ve looked at the best jewellery advent calendars to have on your radar as we count down to the festive period.

For their fourth advent calendar, Grove & Vae have gone dark and mysterious. Behind the mystical-looking doors sit 12 gold vermeil designs, including the malachite Maia Necklace, the Verona Bracelet and sculptural Spiral Fan Earrings, plus a £50 gift card. The designs feel ideal for those who like a chunkier statement piece, with textured, stone or charm items included as well.

One of the best-value calendars is the Estella Bartlett 12-Day Gold Jewellery Advent Calendar, which features 12 of their best-selling gold-plated (silver available too). Alongside the gold necklaces, bracelets and earrings, the calendar includes a £30 gift voucher that can be used exclusively online.

Earring stack lovers, your prayers have been answered; we have a calendar dedicated to the art. Stacking earrings can be a pricey look, but Orelia’s calendar at £120 makes achieving this affordable. The calendar comes with a mix of hoops, studs and singular earrings in either gold or silver, meaning you can customise your stacks to be perfect for you.

Inside this luxurious dusky pink jewellery case lie six exclusive pieces Missoma have curated for the perfect December capsule wardrobe. Each piece is wrapped in a burgundy satin pouch and comes in either plated gold, silver or solid gold, to ensure your capsule collection is tailored to you.

After the perfect curated collection? The Astrid & Miyu 24 Day Advent Calendar is filled with 22 exclusive pieces to stack throughout the festivities. This calendar, worth over £1700, comes in both silver and gold and has an array of signature cosmic touches and sparkling crystal styles for all jewellery lovers out there.

The Astley Clarke advent calendar not only features bestselling icons, exclusive pieces and versatile everyday designs, but also includes their signature locket with complimentary engraving and photo personalisation. Presented in a luxurious jewellery box, this calendar is a wonderful gift for a loved one, or even yourself.

Joma has combined sparkle and sentiment for their calendar this year and has given us the ideal calendar for someone who likes their jewellery to feel personal. The advent calendar, among the exclusive designs, includes two personalisable pieces as well as a monogrammed jewellery box.
