Alex And Ani Holiday Gifts by Price: $16 Box to $58 Cuff
Alex And Ani's site opens in November with a Holiday Shop. It has ELF™ charms, an Enchanted Nutcracker line, birthstone lockets and a group of teacher-friendly bangles. This guide sorts those pieces by listed price and by the person you're shopping for. To be clear about where this comes from: StylesReview read the brand's homepage and product listings. Nobody here has handled the jewelry. Every price below is the listed price at the time of writing (November 2026), and prices can change.

For the ELF™ fan
There are four ELF™ pieces. The choice mostly comes down to bangle, stretch bracelet or necklace.
- Buddy Multi Charm Bangle ($38): candy cane, dimensional snowflake and Buddy-inspired charms in colorful enamel. It's the lowest-priced way into the line.
- Buddy Charm Stretch Bracelet ($44): silver-tone beads with enamel charms, including the maple syrup and candy corn breakfast and paper snowflakes.
- Buddy's Breakfast Stretch Bracelet ($44): white glass pearls, red glass beads and peppermint candy beads, with a maple syrup bottle charm and a spaghetti fork charm.
- Buddy Multi Charm Necklace ($48): the same candy cane, snowflake and Buddy motifs on a necklace.
One honest caveat: these are movie-specific and very Christmas. They make a fun gift for someone who quotes the film every December. For a person who wants jewelry to wear in March, they're probably the wrong pick.
For someone who likes softer, prettier holiday pieces
The Enchanted Nutcracker line is pitched as a "feminine take" on an earlier nutcracker design. It uses a cupcake hat, pearlized enamel, crystal accents and pink opal glass hearts. You can buy one piece or build a set:
- Charm Bangle, $34
- Huggie Drop Earrings, $38
- Linear Bracelet, $38, with pink opal glass beads, a gold nutcracker charm and a logo star charm
- Necklace, $44, on a satellite chain
The earrings are the only earrings in this holiday roundup. That makes them useful for someone who doesn't wear bracelets.
For family, moms and grandmothers
The birthstone shaker pieces are the least seasonal items here, so they're the best bet if you want something worn all year. Each one is an openwork locket. You fill it with up to five birthstone crystal hearts in colors you choose, often one per child or grandchild. The listings say the locket detaches so the hearts can be swapped.
- Heart & Butterfly Shaker Necklace, $49
- Compass Shaker Necklace, $49. The brand ties the compass to guidance and protection.
- Heart & Butterfly Shaker Bracelet, $39, on a snake chain with stopper beads
Two things to know. The listings describe the hearts as birthstone crystal, so don't present them as real gemstones. And five hearts is the stated maximum, which matters for larger families.
For teachers and creative types
Alex And Ani runs a dedicated Gifts For Teachers section. Several listed pieces fit it:
- 'Queen Of The Classroom' Pencil Tension Bangle, $38, with the phrase etched inside
- Ruler Tension Bangle, $38, or the Ruler Ring, $34. Both carry "You are powerful beyond measure" inside.
- Paint Palette Tension Bangle, $38, engraved "trust the process"
- Crayola Tickle Me Pink Tension Bangle, $38, or the Crayola Royal Purple Crayon Cuff, $48
- Splurge picks: the Ruler Bypass Cuff at $54 and the Pave Pencil Cuff - Small at $58, with crystal pave and a pink enamel eraser
If you're splitting a class gift among several parents, one of the $38 bangles keeps each share small.
Before you check out
The listings leave some gaps, and a few of them could trip up a gift.
- Sizing isn't spelled out. The product text doesn't give ring sizes, bangle diameters or chain lengths. The Ruler Ring is the riskiest gift if you don't know the recipient's size. The Pave Pencil Cuff is labeled "Small," so check the product page for other sizes and fit details before you order.
- Metal content isn't stated in these descriptions. They say "metal," "silver-tone" or "gold." If the recipient has a metal sensitivity, look for material details on the product page first. The site also has a separate Water Resistant & Stainless Steel collection.
- The Holiday Advent Box ($16) comes empty. The listing says you fill it yourself. It is a container, not a gift set.
- Shipping timing isn't covered here. Nothing reviewed gives holiday delivery dates. Check the site's shipping information well before you need the gift. An e-gift card is the fallback if you're short on time.
Bottom line: the ELF™ and Nutcracker pieces are seasonal novelties at $34 to $48. The birthstone shakers and the mantra bangles are better choices for something worn past January.
