Galentine's Day: What It Is and What to Buy Your Best Friend

Forget Valentine's Day — it's time for Galentine's Day! Find out where the friends' holiday (13 February) comes from, and see 3 stylish gift ideas for your sister or "bestie" from Marai.

Before the world is flooded with red hearts, the calendar holds a date that matters more for female solidarity. 13 February is Galentine's Day — the unofficial holiday of friendship. It's a day to celebrate the women who stand by us through good times and bad — friends, sisters, mentors.

Instead of a romantic dinner — wine with the girls. Instead of flowers — a gift that stays with her for longer. What to buy, to thank her for being there?

3 gift ideas for Galentine's Day

Matching rings (matchy-matchy): Remember the broken-heart necklaces from childhood? In the grown-up version, pick the No Boys Allowed or No Boys Allowed with Diastema. A symbol of your shared strength and an understanding men just don't have access to.

No Boys Allowed with Diastema Gold ring — Marai Jewelry

Earrings as a memory: Any pair from the Marai collection works here, because each was made as a talisman for moments worth holding on to — especially the ones spent with your best friends. But how about Tan Lines? The delicate, irregular lines of these earrings recall the rhythm of waves and the fleetingness of memories. Their organic form looks shaped by nature itself — light, fluid, full of harmony. Jewelry that doesn't only adorn, but tells stories — those holiday stories that often stay with us longer than the tan.

Mood Bag silk scarf — the perfect one-size-fits-all gift. A luxurious accessory she can wear at the neck, in her hair, or tied to her bag. Elegant, feminine, and 100% natural silk. Pairs beautifully with our Teide collection: the earrings, the signet ring and the ear cuff.
