CHOOSING the right piece of jewellery for a loved one can sometimes be tricky.

But an expert in a village near Knutsford believes she can help people pick the perfect present.

Suzie Harvey has set up a new service to match someone’s personality to the right item.

“The secret to success is giving people the ability to choose the right piece of jewellery for themselves, family or friends and being able to identify what they want quickly,” she said.

Suzie hopes ‘personality profiling’ can become a credit crunch beating service for Miglio Jewellery in Newplatt Lane, Goostrey.

Her business is now piloting the idea, which is similar to giving someone fashion advice.

Suzie said customers who received the service had returned to Miglio after their first success.

The most recent figures show the personality profiling initiative’s sales are up 64 per cent on last year's figures.

Suzie, 43, said she was also keen to help other budding jewellery makers in the Knutsford area.

“It will appeal to anybody who is into fashion,” she said.

“I help people to launch their own jewellery businesses so it’s going to be of interest to those looking for a recession-proof career.”

Miglio has also been involved in charity work with The Homestead.

The charity helps street children in South Africa to reconstruct their lives.

This year Suzie is selling bracelets that have been made by the children's mothers.
