3 Major Occasions Every Girl Would Receive Gold! How Many Can You Relate?
Think of gold and prosperity, success and elegance are likely to come to mind. Since it was founded in 700 B.C., it has become one of the most symbolic jewellery in many cultures, including ours here in Singapore!
If you are one of those girls who has received at least one gold accessory in your life but barely wears it, scroll along till the end to find out what you can do with it. Before that, let us take a trip down memory lane at three major occasions where us girls would receive gold!

From cute little anklets to pendants and necklaces, gold has always been a popular gift choice. Aside from the fact that it is a timeless material, gold is also the safest choice as unlike jewellery made with alloys or base metal (such as silver) it is the least likely to cause skin allergies.
Turning 21 means we are officially entering adulthood. Scary, yes, but at least most of us girls would receive a definitive gift from our parents- the golden key!
In the past, turning 21 means we would be old enough to be the keyholder to our family's home. Though this tradition has become (sort of) obsolete, the symbolism of the key lives on and is still a popular present today.
But if your key pendant is just sitting in your safe, consider exchanging it for brand-new jewellery with no loss at all.
Here's what we exchanged our key pendant and gold chain for: Citigems 916 Gold Arrow-Heart Pendant ($139), 916 Gold Necklace ($404)
Yes, we get it. Marriage happens once in a lifetime (for most, at least) and it is important that we look our best. Aside from our dream wedding gown, jewellery is essential to complete the look. Gold jewellery is a popular choice because of what it represents but have you thought about what to do with your jewellery set after the big day?
On top of exchanging this set to a newer jewellery set, we also managed to get our hands on another modern and contemporary jewellery set for daily use. Check it out!
Unlike their competitors, you can now exchange your 916/999 gold at current market rate with 100% value retention at all Maxi-Cash and Citigems stores regardless of where your jewellery is from. This means you ladies can upgrade your dated gold jewellery and leave with a set (or more!) of brand new, on-trend jewellery worth more than what you came in with.
Here's a sneak peek of some of the brand new 916/999 gold jewellery you can exchange your dated jewellery for!
