Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2024
As lovely as flowers are, Mother’s Day jewelry gifts are unequivocally longer lasting. Combining sparkle and sentimentality, jewelry is the best gift for Mother’s Day if you want to cherish the most important lady in your life with something that lasts a lifetime. You can make it even more personal by adding an engraving—an option which many brands now offer.
Here are some of my favorite jewelry gifts for mom, from lustrous pearls to glistening gemstones and the most divine diamonds.
Tiffany & Co.
Tennis Bracelet with Diamonds and Pearls
The beloved, timeless tennis bracelet, with a twist. Set in platinum, this bracelet glimmers with marquise diamonds and lustrous Akoya cultured pearls. Pearls are always a good idea for a Mother’s Day gift—especially a modern, contemporary pearl and diamond pairing like this.
Cartier
Panthére De Cartier Watch
In beautiful rose gold set with brilliant-cut diamonds, this is a watch that your mother can treasure for years to come. Every time she wears it, she will be reminded of your love, affection, and thoughtfulness that you have for her. If she normally dons a silver or gold watch, this is an opportunity for her to tap into a new neutral tone that adds glamour and femininity to her outfits.
Harry Winston
Yellow Diamond Necklace
Lavish your mom with gorgeous gemstones this Mother’s Day. Harry Winston’s Yellow Diamond Necklace radiates joy and happiness with 15 radiant-cut fancy yellow diamonds and 186 marquise, pear-shaped, and round brilliant colorless diamonds, set in platinum and 18K yellow gold.
Chopard
Precious Lace Mini-Frou-Frou Ring
Gift your mom something better than flowers by treating her to this rose gold ring featuring a blooming flower motif that twinkles with pear-shaped diamond petals made all the more beautiful by detailed edges of antique lace.
David Yurman
Cable Wrap Stud Earrings
Mother’s Day jewelry is not confined to soft, feminine pinks and delicate pearls. Even though they are small, these black onyx stud earrings exude power and sophistication, making them a true statement piece. Black gemstones aren’t the conventional choice for Mother’s Day jewelry gifts, but since they are regarded as a symbol of strength and courage, they might just make the perfect gift.
Tiffany & Co.
Bean® Design Pendant
Diamonds might be a girl’s best friend, but there are plenty of other options with just as much allure, like this hand-carved green jade bean pendant. With its simple shape and natural contours, this necklace speaks to the incomparable beauty of nature. Unique and elegant, your mom will be able to wear it with everything.
Bulgari
Divas’ Dream Earrings
Add a splash of color to your mom’s jewelry collection with these vibrant 18K rose gold drop earrings set with pear-shaped rubellites, pavé diamonds, and mother-of-pearl elements. These are earrings that she can wear every day or reserve for special occasions. Either way, she will treasure them forever—not just because of their astounding beauty, but because they are from you.
