What to get my Polish girlfriend for her birthday / 6 months?

Hi,

My Polish girlfriend's birthday and our 6 month anniversary (same day) is coming up. She loves horses and also wants a betta fish (bojownika). I have one of her friends helping me to choose gifts, but as my Polish isn't so good I prefer to order things online. I am wondering if anyone has any good suggestions? I wanted to get her a bracelet/ring/necklace with her name or initials carved in, but I don't know where to start in a foreign country and I doubt it's something I can order online.

Dzięki!

She loves horses? Easy. Black Beauty, The Black Stallion, The Red Pony, My Friend Flicka, The Horse and His Boy, National Velvet, Dick Francis books (start with either Decider, Comeback or Smokescreen, they don't have to be read in any particular sequence), James Herriot books (these do have to be read in sequence. Start with All Creatures Great and Small), and the Saddle Club series (Start with Horse Crazy). Anything I've just listed is essential reading for any horse lover, and they are all easily available on the net in English, and almost all of them in Polish.

you need to buy the item first and let it to be 'wygrawerowane' - most of jewelers do 'grawerowanie' on the premises or at least they cooperate with a 'grawer'

bracelet is bransoletka
ring is pierścionek
necklace is naszyjnik

there are jeweler's online search for 'biżuteria online' -
