Mothers raise us up when we’re down, have no competition as our staunchest supporters, and balance kind words with life lessons better than anyone. What more reason could you need to celebrate Mother’s Day?
Part and parcel of that celebration entails thoughtful gifts that speak to the memories, history, and love you share. Nothing quite captures that authentic essence like jewelry.
Pieces handcrafted to vividly reflect the sophistication and rawness of life are something any mother will embrace with open arms. That said, look no further for Mother’s Day jewelry gift ideas than this guide.
Top Mother’s Day Jewelry Gift Ideas
Start off with these strong picks as you wend your way to something that elicits Mom’s shining spirit.
Pendant Necklaces
If Mom is known for making strong choices, a pendant necklace could be the play. Wearing one proves she’s not afraid to openly display what’s vital to her very being.
Some pendants double as lockets so that she can hold what’s dear to her close, but every pendant in our women’s sterling silver necklace collection symbolizes the monumental inner strength it takes to be a mother.
Elegant Rings
Sterling silver for women exemplifies distinguished versatility and timeless grace—just like Mom. Choose between:
-
Statement rings – An excellent choice for moms who naturally and unapologetically draw attention.
-
Stackable rings – Whether they come in a set or Mom chooses to stack herself, these rings are as fun as jewelry gets.
- Personalized rings – Names, family crests, and meaningful symbols are all excellent choices for Mother’s Day.
Bracelets for Every Style
Women’s bracelets come in all shapes and sizes, but generally speaking, fall into two categories: delicate or adventurous. Each complements different styles.
Our women’s silver bracelets cover both ends of the spectrum and everything in between, so choose what suits your mom’s endless strengths.
Earrings to Complement Any Look
If faces are pictures, then earrings are frames.
Our silver earring collection is eminently capable of framing every kind of face, whether you surprise Mom with studs, hoops, or drops. Every choice tells its own story, with her at the center.
Jewelry for Different Types of Moms
Mothers are more than just parents—they’re people with their own sense of style. A mother who loves hosting massive family parties might want a gift with more gusto, whereas a mother who pours her love into more intimate, individualized moments could do with something subtler.
You know her best. Be decisive as you add to her stylistic symphony.
Gifts for Moms Who Love Classic Styles
Some jewelry is as timeless as motherhood itself. These pieces evoke that timelessness:
-
Pearl earrings – Does it get more classic? The Captain’s Daughter set combines that old-timey style with the resilience of those who brave the waves—a resilience your mom no doubt shares.
- Simple bracelets – Is “The simpler, the better” your mom’s mantra? Then go with a pared-down bracelet like No Rose Without A Thorn. It’ll connect her to her roots in more ways than one.
Gifts for Trendy Moms
Trendy moms prefer contemporary charm over the classics. Modern designs, modern stories.
Statement rings definitely fit the bill. Bewitched emanates an air of mystery, which is a statement in its own right; Due North, on the other hand, employs clear-cut onyx to convey a clear-cut message of guidance, courage, and trust.
Layering necklaces represents a more dynamic trend for moms as daring as they are trendy. Start her off with a strong foundation, like Chopping Block, then stack it with colors that resonate deeply, like the red garnet of Foresight.
Gifts for Moms Who Appreciate Minimalism
Moms are masters at giving subtle hints, so equally subtle jewelry could be on the table. The sleek simplicity of the Rope Chain or the dense darkness of studs like Nightfall effortlessly evoke that sort of understated minimalism.
How to Choose the Right Jewelry Based on Your Mom’s Style
Selecting the right piece for Mom comes down to her personality and preferences. Combine your knowledge of those things with these guiding questions as you strive for the perfect gift:
- How sentimental is she? If the answer is “very,” shoot for more personalized jewelry.
- What sort of pieces (and clothing) does she normally wear? Would she appreciate similar pieces or something fresh?
- When does she usually wear jewelry? Gifting her something for everyday wear isn’t the same as gifting her something better suited for lavish events.
When to Gift Jewelry for Mother’s Day
Timing and presenting your gift comes down to personality and preferences, too. If you’re throwing a big party, present the gift after the meal; at a more casual get-together, read the room and give it to her when the time is right.
You could also wrap the gift in wrapping paper she used to use (or perhaps still does), showing you care about her as much as she does you. And if you have kids, having them hand the gift over to Grandma—along with whatever they got or made for her—is guaranteed to spread smiles.
How to Care for Mother’s Day Jewelry Gifts
Your mom likely already has a jewelry box—storing her gift in it is a wise first step in ensuring her pieces’ longevity. These other tips can help, too:,
- See a professional about repair and maintenance only in extreme circumstances; you can do most of the cleaning at home.
- Trade overpriced solvents for warm water and dish soap.
- Don’t hang pearl necklaces—lay them out flat to prevent stretched threads. Individual pearls are best cleaned with a cloth.
Match Mom’s Sparkle with the Gift of Jewelry
Mother’s Day condenses countless years of love and care, but that doesn’t make it—or the people it’s about—any less special. Go all out for Mom the same way she has for you since square one.
Clocks and Colours can help with that. Jewelry is our way of life, as our lavishly luxurious yet uniquely understated pieces can attest.
This one’s for all the mothers out there: Thank you for doing what you do. And thank you for choosing us this Mother’s Day.
