Best Mother’s Day Jewelry: The 5 Pieces You’ll Want to Borrow from Her
Every year, it’s the same question, just with slightly higher stakes: What are you getting your mom for Mother’s Day? Incidentally, it can also double as a Mother’s Day present for your spouse on behalf of your little one, as one does. Unlike Valentine’s Day, this isn’t one you can improvise your way through. There’s no last-minute bouquet that saves the day. This is your mother we’re talking about—the woman who raised you, knows you better than anyone… and will absolutely notice if you didn’t think it through (the same goes for your wife).
If there’s ever a moment to gift a piece of jewelry she wouldn’t necessarily choose—but will end up loving and wearing forever it’s now. Jewelry, unsurprisingly, feels like the obvious answer.
So, I took a moment to browse The 1916 Company’s selection with mothers in mind, and my personal taste in the mix. Here are my top five pieces:
If you’re looking to quietly upgrade her wardrobe just before summer, this gold and titanium spiral bracelet with its five rows by Mattia Cielo is exactly that kind of piece. The wrapping design gives it a modern edge, but what really sets it apart is its flexibility and weightlessness. It moves with her, adapts effortlessly, and somehow manages to feel both present and barely there at the same time. A subtle addition—but one she’ll wonder how she ever lived without.
If you’re in the mood to make a statement—or simply secure your position as favorite child—look no further than Rahaminov Diamonds. We’re not just talking about a classic pair of diamond earrings, but something that subtly resembles wrapped leaves in gold and pear-shaped diamonds. Timeless, elegant, and impossibly chic, they do exactly what they’re supposed to do: elevate everything, instantly.
For the cool mom, the one who somehow always gets it right without trying, this necklace by Pasquale Bruni feels like a natural fit. It’s a choker to begin with, which is already a daring choice. Figlia dei Fiori is a collection that pays tribute to the blooming daisy flower Eugenia Bruni holds so dear. There’s something effortlessly bold about it, yet at the same time poetic and ultra-feminine.
I have always loved versatility, if only because it allows you to create so many looks with so little effort. Which, in my opinion, might just be the ultimate luxury. And this ring by Etho Maria proves it. It works just as well at a formal summer party as it does on an ordinary Tuesday at the office, or even heading down to the beach (which, if we’re honest, is exactly what you want). Easy, refined, and just distinctive enough to feel special without ever trying too hard.
And finally, for something a little more understated but no less meaningful, The 1916 Company Collection offers that perfect sweet spot. Around $1000, it’s the kind of piece she’ll wear every single day. Not because she has to—but because it blends with anything : fabric, color, style and outfit!
