Gifts With Southern Soul

For a Night Out

Bow Tie and Cuff Links
Both the carnelian cuff links by South Carolina’s Dudley VanDyke ($450; dudleyvandyke.com) and the silk bow ties by Georgia’s Larkin Lane ($80; larkinlanedesigns.com) put a singular stamp on dressing up.

Watch
First introduced in 1963, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona brings the elegance of yellow gold, steel, and a sleek black dial together with the practical stopwatch capability of a chronograph, so you can time that toast down to the second ($16,900; rolex.com).

Rings
The sentiment behind Monica Rich Kosann’s collectible Poesy rings dates to a fourteenth-century tradition of engraving inscriptions of friendship and inspiration on bands (from $575; monicarichkosann.com).

Necklace and Rings
The Virginia native Temple St. Clair’s ruby and diamond Trio necklace ($27,000) and her Trio Eternity and Trio Vigna rings ($1,500–$2,750) are delicate enough to layer and stack liberally (templestclair.com).

Earrings
Brent Neale’s eighteen-karat gold and hand-carved
carnelian and turquoise studs call to mind festive stars ($5,400; elizabethbruns.com).
