    Have you tried Tiffany's in Brown Thomas? You should be able to get a necklace in there for around that price. If you look on their website there are lots ranging from £80-£100

    Edit: I didn't realise they have an irish website. There are only a couple under 100 euros but lots for between 100 and 200 if you could stretch the budget a bit.

    Try www.etsy.com

    Really unusual handmade jewellery. And with a budget that high you can get something fantastic and personal

    Personally I think there is no point paying for things like Tiffanys when most of the high streets sell imitations and thats all anyone will think it is

    I would have a look at the www.newbridgesilverware.com website under jewellery.
    If you look under both the necklaces and pendants section they have some nice things in the €25 to €100 price range.
    If you look under pendants on page 10 they have a Crystal Promise Pendant for €49.00. I have given this to a few people and they liked it.
    These are sold all over Ireland and you can find out the stockists on the website also.

    What kind of style was the BTs necklace?

    If you are going to be spending that much then youd want to be sure she will like it! Lots of girls are fussy about jewellery and have quite specific taste.

    Ive gotten some lovely pieces from Newbridge over the years (around your price range too), they tend to be quite simple classic designs that wear well with a variety of outfits, although to this day my most commented upon and personal favourite necklace is a torc I bought in a hotel shop on holidays for just 20 euro!

    Where are you based? There is a jewellers downstairs in Dundrum Town Centre called Ernest Jones that I have got some lovely stuff for my girlfriend for. They cater for all price ranges.
    Or as suggested above, Newbridge silver jewellary can also be lovely and is always very, very reasonably prices

    Swarovski have some nice pieces for less than €100. They have a shop on Grafton St, and I think Henry St. http://www.swarovski.com/Web_IE/en/0108/category/Jewelry_/Necklaces.html

    Maybe you can find the one she hinted towards cheaper online.

    If you take/find a picture of the necklace she liked in BTs, then someone here could find a similar version (or even the same necklace for cheaper) :)
