Team IMAGE visit Weir & Sons to select their favourite pieces
They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and the staffers can attest to exactly that after their festive visit to Weir & Sons to scope out their must-have Christmas picks.

Between the gleaming mahogany counters, plush carpet, antique cabinets and twinkling lights, very few stores feel as Christmassy as Weir & Sons. Even their iconic red bags with the bows seem made to be placed under the tree.
I just love the simplicity and timeless style of a gold t-bar necklace. It’s a style I remember my mum wearing when I was small, so it conjures up lots of warm, nostalgic feelings for me.
I would love to gift my daughter Alanna one of these beautiful birthstone bracelets, containing a yellow topaz star to mark her November birthdate. She would love it!

From the moment we stepped into Weir & Sons on Grafton Street, we were greeted with such warmth and kindness from the staff members. It was such a joy to try on some stunning pieces of jewellery.
I always remember receiving a horseshoe necklace as a birthday gift from my aunt when I was a child, so as soon as I laid eyes on the 18k Yellow Gold Diamond Horseshoe Necklace in the store, I knew I had to try it on. It was so simple but so elegant, and the little diamond caught the light just perfectly.
Emerald rings always catch my eye, and I usually can’t pass up the opportunity to try them on. The 9k Yellow Gold Oval Emerald and Diamond Three Stone Rubover Ring in Weir & Sons went straight to the top of my wish list. The combination of the emerald and diamond stones is just perfection!

Nothing says festive luxury like a trip into a sparkling jewellery store, and, wow, the Weir & Sons Grafton Street store delivered this in droves. The staff were immediately on hand to greet us and assist us in trying on decadent, standout pieces you wouldn’t find anywhere else.
I was immediately impressed by the Ice Cube 18k Yellow Gold Full Set Diamond Bracelet and how simple yet elegant it was. It sparkled like stars under the pin lighting in the store and genuinely took my breath away.
Something I also spotted on the Weir & Sons website was this beautiful Weir Collection 18ct Yellow Gold 0.63ct Diamond Set Dress Ring, a truly unique statement piece to add to your collection. I particularly love the shape of this ring, as it gives it an almost ethereal quality!

Stepping into Weir & Sons on Grafton Street is like entering Aladdin’s cave – unique, sparkling treasures as far as the eye can see.
I always love a new showstopper pair of earrings for Christmas, and this year, it’s the 9K Yellow Gold Cubic Zirconia & Pearl Drop Earrings, paired with the 9K Yellow Gold Baguette White Cubic Zirconia Stud Earrings for the perfect curated ear – that’s any outfit dressed up for the season.
Now is the time to start dropping hints too so, Santa, if you’re asking, the mega Weir Collection 18k Rose Gold Amethyst And Diamond Cluster and the 18k Yellow Gold 0.35ct Diamond Gold Dress Ring have been on my mind since we met. Been an angel all year…

There is something so nostalgic and comforting to me about Grafton Street at Christmas time. Even amongst the hustle and bustle of the crowds, I love the festive buzz of the street at Christmas, the buskers singing Christmas songs, the twinkling lights and of course, the mistletoe above Weir & Sons!
Weir & Sons isn’t just your regular jewellers, it’s a family-run Grafton Street institution. Going in for some Christmas browsing always feels like the ultimate treat.
I am predominantly drawn to any gold jewellery, and this Gucci horsebit chain bracelet stole my heart for its simplicity and elegance. While this Messika 18k Yellow Gold Baby Move Pavé Diamond Bracelet is truly stunning, and would be the perfect finishing touch to any outfit.
