The best jewellery advent calendars, picked by a fashion editor
Including Pandora, Missoma and more
Jewellery advent calendars are the most decadent way to countdown to Christmas and there are plenty of them to buy right now. To be fair, this year's selection of beauty advent calendars is seriously tempting too.
For 2023, we're seeing some great treats from the likes of Astrid & Miyu and Missoma, and very excitingly, Pandora is launching its very first advent calendar, filled with a bracelet and charms, which is bound to be a sell-out.
Granted, they are more expensive than your average Lindt calendar, but when you break down the cost of the jewellery within, they are actually pretty good value, as you often save 50% or more of the original price.
As with a lot of advent calendars, they tend to sell out in no time, so scroll down and be quick if you see something you like.
