If you’ve not got yourself an advent calendar yet don’t despair, because you can still get your hands on one of my favourite ones before December 1 rolls around. I’ve already tested out the Estella Bartlett 2024 Jewellery Advent Calendar (and by tested I mean I’ve opened every single drawer) and it is one of the best ones I’ve tried out this year.
Although it has a value of £375, it was originally priced £195 which would have already saved you £180. However, thanks to an early Black Friday sale, you can now get the Estella Bartlett Advent Calendar with 20% off, slashing it to £146.25 and saving you £50.

If you’re worried about your advent calendar not arriving before December 1 then you’ll be fine, as Estella Bartlett automatically gives you free delivery on orders over £40 – which would include your advent calendar – and will arrive in three to five working days. However, you can also order it with express delivery which allows it to arrive in one to two working days, giving you plenty of time for it to get to you before December.
Not to mention, the calendar has 12 doors to open, rather 24, so as long as it gets to you before December 12 you can still open it in the lead up to Christmas Eve or even Christmas Day. I, of course, couldn’t wait until December to open mine, so in the interests of research I had a peek at everything hiding behind the 12 drawers in the Estella Bartlett Advent Calendar.
First things first, this calendar is small but beautifully designed. It opens like a double door to reveal each of the drawers inside, and it folds back up into a neat little box that’s perfect for keeping on your dressing table ready to open each day.
Each of the pieces of jewellery inside are either a classic Estella Bartlett design or exclusive to the advent calendar, and are perfect for wearing for the festive season. There’s pendant necklaces, tennis bracelets, earrings and plenty more to help accessories your go-to party outfits.
Some of the pieces included in the Estella Bartlett Advent Calendar are:
Gemstone Amelia Bracelet in Green Quartz
Green Cat Eye Double Necklace
Star CZ Paper Link T-Bar Necklace
Pave Mini Heart Necklace
Fine CZ Tennis Bracelet
Fine CZ Tennis Bracelet in either gold- or silver-plating
Exclusive to the advent calendar is:
Triple Star Drop Necklace, available in both the gold and silver editions which will not be available for individual purchase.
I absolutely loved opening each drawer, and the packaging of each piece is carefully done to protect them and make each item feel even more luxurious than it already is. I already have several pieces of Estella Bartlett jewellery in my jewellery box, and it doesn’t tarnish or show any signs of wear despite being worn almost weekly.
The Estella Bartlett Advent Calendar is definitely one of my favourite advent calendars that I’ve tested this year, although there is another jewellery one is up there with my top choices too.
The Abbott Lyon x Stacey Solomon Advent Calendar is another jewellery advent calendar that I absolutely loved taking a sneak peek at this year, and good news – it’s also currently on sale. Now reduced from £422 to £249, and you can take an extra 35% off it by using the code BLACK35 on the Abbott Lyon website.
With 12 doors to open, this is another advent calendar you can still snap up with plenty of time to spare before Christmas. Both the Stacey Solomon calendar and Abbott Lyon’s Made More You Advent Calendar, £249 (was £500) can be fully personalised too, for a more special and unique touch.
