Charms for Galentine's Day
By Charmco
Will You Be Mine (Platonically)
Valentine's Day has been around since the 5th century, but more recently, the 15th of February has been adopted as Galentine's Day—the day to celebrate the other loves of our lives, our best gal pals. Romantic relationships have historically been put on a pedestal, but platonic friendships are just as vital to a happy, fulfilling life. Your best friends have been with you through thick and thin, so gather up your closest confidants and celebrate Galentine's Day with us. Here are some of our favorite gold charms to honor friendship in all its forms.

Meet Cute
The story of your friendship is worth celebrating in gold. Childhood friendships started on the sidewalks of your hometown bring a whistful feel of nostalgia and memories of melting popsicles between swim breaks and long bike rides on hot summer days. Maybe your parents were friends so you don't even remember a time when you weren't together, and your matching stuffie and teddy have the well-loved wear to show it. If your camaraderie started on the playing field, you could gift your best friend a charm representing the sport you bonded over, like the Soccer Ball Charm or Tennis Racket Charm. However they came into your life, you're grateful they did, and you can show it by finding a gold charm to honor the memory.

Girl's Trip
There is something sacred about the Girl's Trip. They encourage us to revert to some inner girlhood version of ourselves, who has sleepovers with her best friends in matching pajamas and stays up all night laughing at jokes you won't be able to explain to anyone else come morning. From shopping in Paris to wine tastings in Napa, the vacations you take with your best gal pals are the ones you'll cherish the most. If you and your besties make a point to travel together often, consider turning trading charms into a tradition to curate a custom charm bracelet full of your adventures over time. You could even get matching Passport Charms and engrave destinations as you go.

Locked In
You have a secret handshake, a favorite restaurant, a go-to karaoke duet, and endless traditions and memories—you're locked in! The lock is a playful, non-traditional symbol of friendship. Our Lock Charm is functional as a charm or chain clasp and it's engravable, so you could personalize it with something special. Padlocks have become modern symbols of commitment, so the gold padlock charm is the perfect best friend gift to tell your bestie you're locked in for life.

Inside Jokes
The road to friendship is paved with laughter. Those little inside jokes that only make sense to you and have you falling into fits of giggles in public without care of who is staring are worth remembering. Engravable Gold Disc Charms are the perfect personal gift for your friends. The Classic Medium Disc is a great size to engrave a short message or inside joke (both sides are engravable) and hang on a chain or attach to a charm bracelet. If you need a bit more room to capture your hilarity, opt for the large or extra large discs. Lastly, the dainty gold Tag Charms is excellent if you're more of a minimalist.

Superlatives
Friendship tropes aren't just a thing of literature. They say opposites attract, and many friendships highlight how well two seemingly opposing personality types balance and complement each other. Try a fresh take on best friend jewelry by cementing your role in charm form. Whether you're the Black Cat to their Golden Retriever or the Sunshine to their Grumpy, we have gold charms to capture your signature friendship dynamic.

Gold Lockets are one of the most classic forms of jewelry out there. Traditionally used to hold tokens of your great love or someone you've lost, we're championing using them for your closest confidants. If you met your best friend as children and have grown with them over the decades, we especially love the idea of keeping photos of the two of you as young kiddos in your locket. This little reminder of your younger selves is a precious way to show how far you've come together. We have a trove of lockets to choose from, but a few of our favorites are the Classic Round Lockets (perfect for hanging on a chain) and the Petite Heart Locket with Diamond (a versatile size for necklaces or bracelets).

Always & Forever
Several symbols represent "forever" commitments, but most are associated with romantic love and weddings. Friendships are just as worthy of celebration, and that is why the gold Infinity Charm is the perfect best friend gift for Galentine's Day. It says your friendship, love, and appreciation for each other will be everlasting.
