She’s the one who did it first, always know best and you wouldn’t be here without. Discover our edit of Jewellery Gifts She’ll Adore this Mother’s Day

Whether you’re searching for the perfect gift for your own mum or for your partner, jewellery is always the shining pinnacle of Mother’s Day gifts. Long after the flowers and chocolates have gone, a thoughtfully chosen piece of jewellery will last for years to come, creating a memory that lasts a lifetime. Maybe you’re looking for a gift for your partner’s first Mother’s Day or perhaps the matriarch that keeps the family together? Just remember, it’s the thought behind the piece that counts. Here’s our Edit of Mother’s Day Jewellery Gifts to help you find the gift that best says, “thank you mum”.

Maple Leaf Diamonds "Seasons" Set

Jewellery with Pearls

As the only gemstone created by a living organism, there’s no better way to thank mum for giving you life, than with beautiful pearls. Pearls have been enjoying a resurgence in recent years, worn by women of all ages to symbolise confidence and personal strength. Whether freshwater or cultured, pearls are a classic, affordable gemstone that will always be in style. These 9ct White Gold Pearl & Blue Topaz Stud Earrings feature freshwater bouton pearls with a pretty blue topaz accent. If she prefers drops, our elegant 9ct White Gold Pearl & Diamond Hoop Drop Earrings will add a mood-enhancing touch of sparkle whenever she wears them.

A Locket to Keep You Close

Gifting a locket complete with beautiful photographs inside is a gift she’ll treasure forever. Our Sterling Silver Oval Family Locket has space for four photographs, meaning it’s perfect for a mum or grandmother. As an alternative to photographs, how about a tiny drawing or lock of hair from your little one? Also, a beautiful, polished locket is ideal for engraving with a personalised message. Why not engrave her initials on the front and the initials and date of birth of her children on the reverse? Alternatively, engrave something that’s personal to your family. Your children’s first words perhaps? The possibilities are endless!

Jewellery that Reflects her Interests

Sourcing an elegant piece of jewellery that reflects mum’s interests shows thought and careful consideration. If she’s into horses, this stunning 9ct White Gold Diamond Horseshoe Necklet is an everyday wear necklace with just the right amount of sparkle. Also, it has the added benefit of bringing good luck! With an adjustable 16”/18” chain, she’ll be able to find the perfect length for her.

Perhaps mum loves gardening and getting close to nature? Jewellery with leaf forms creates an elegant, calming feel. This gorgeous 9ct White Gold Leaf Shaped Pendant is set with six brilliant cut diamonds. The brushed finish of the leaf gives it a natural, textured feel which contrasts with the polished stem. Moreover, the Matching Ring could be from a sibling or a future add-on gift. If yellow gold is more to her taste, our 9ct Diamond Leaf Shaped Pendant features a cascade of leaves, alternately diamond set and polished to stunning effect.

Intertwined Jewellery

Intertwined jewellery can be used to symbolise the everlasting bond between mother and child. Our elegant 9ct Yellow Gold Double Oval Pendant has a larger polished oval to represent mum with a smaller, linked diamond-set oval to represent you or your child. Similarly, these matching 9ct Yellow & White Gold Double Oval Hoop Earrings have the same powerful effect and are timeless enough to be worn every day.

We also love a classic diamond circle pendant which perfectly represents a mothers unending love for her child. This timeless design can be worn for any occasion.

Alternatively, a silver multi-strand bangle offers the same symbolism of love and connection. This Silver 3 Strand Russian Bangle could represent you and your two siblings. You could even engrave your names on the inside of each individual strand. Furthermore, a fabulous 5 Strand Silver Russian Bangle is also available. This could represent the five members of your family or even 5 grandchildren. The interpretation is for you to decide!

Wear Your Heart on Your Sleeve (or Hers)

On Mother’s Day, Jewellery with hearts spells out to mum in no uncertain terms, that you love and appreciate her. Although it may seem like a cliché, the right heart-shaped jewellery is stylish and fashion-forward.

This dainty 9ct Yellow Gold Diamond Heart & Circle Necklace is a great daily-wear accessory staple. Just think of all the compliments she’ll get, and chances to say that her beautiful necklace was a Mother’s Day gift from you!

Similarly, hoop earrings are one of the hardest working jewellery items for many women. Our contemporary 9ct Yellow Gold Hinged Hoops feature an exquisite diamond set heart drop that she’ll simply love to wear.

If you’re looking to splurge, maybe for a first Mother’s Day gift, this dazzling Anniversary Love Heart Diamond Halo Pendant is the gift she’ll never forget. From Italian jewellery house Recarlo, the natural 0.24ct diamond at the centre is cut in the shape of a heart. Also, the sides of the 18ct gold pendant have open hearts all the way around which allow the light to enter the diamonds.

Jewellery with her Birthstone

Jewellery featuring mum’s birthstone is a genius Mother’s Day gift. Not only is it thoughtful, it’s also colourful, and you can add to it in future years.

If her birthday is in September, this elegant 18ct Yellow Gold Sapphire and Diamond Ring has a stunning setting she can’t fail to love. For a March birthday, keep it simple with these 9ct White Gold Aquamarine Studs. Finally, for a mum born in August, this gorgeous 9ct Yellow Gold Octagonal Peridot Pendant & Chain has a contemporary rub-over setting.

If mum is a colourful, vibrant character, why stick to just her birthstone? Pieces of jewellery with her children’s birthstones are another fantastic option.

And Finally... Jewellery to Hand Back

All our most precious jewellery items are the heirlooms of the future. However, wouldn’t it be lovely to see our children wearing these special items and enjoying them during our lifetimes? If you’re thinking about your partner’s first Mother’s Day, why not start a new tradition? You could have a dedicated piece of jewellery for each child that your partner can wear and cherish. When your child comes of age, or become a mother themselves, she can pass her first Mother’s Day gift on to them.

For heirloom quality Mother’s Day gifts, invest in a piece that will stand the test of time. A Maple Leaf Diamond Bracelet is an absolute classic. Alternatively, a fabulous Maple Leaf Diamonds Eternity Ring will always be in style.
