Our picks for graduation gifts!
Posted by Isabella Cordina on
Graduation in Charleston is an amazing time of year! The flowers are blooming and families are everywhere snapping pics, gushing over accomplished children, plotting for the best parking spot to arrive at the ceremony on time, and chasing down the perfect reservation for post celebratory feasts!
Whether you are celebrating in dinner jackets and white dresses at The Cistern Yard, or in a uniform parade at The Citadel, or carrying red roses out of the McBee House…we have got you covered. We have spent our lives coming up with ideas for the perfect, unique gift that captures the moment! Below are a few of our favorite items that will make you a hit with the grad, and will last long after the bubbles and high fives! Shop early and let us engrave the special date on your gift…a forever reminder of a job well done!
For HER:
A personalized locket or pendant is a wonderful gift! Engrave the outside of the locket with a monogram, a date, or even the school crest. Enclose a special photo of the campus and graduation day on the inside of the locket. Available in sterling silver, gold-filled, and 14kt gold. We also have gold-filled necklaces with square or rectangle shaped pendants that are perfect to engrave.

Cash is King when it comes to gifts for the boys! Attach a bill to a sterling silver or silver-plated money clip. Our money clips can also be personalized with engraving. Or our George Campsen leather card holder made from South Carolina alligators is always a winner!

Graduation is the perfect time to think of new beginnings! Start a collection for your grad with a set of classic julep cups personalized with engraved monograms or dates. Add to it as they get their first job, turn 21, or receive special awards. They are old enough now to appreciate a gift that is sentimental, yet can be used for the big days in life worth remembering…the memories that require us to raise a silver cup and say CHEERS!
