We’ve curated a selection of beautiful, shiny trinkets she can wear everyday, and will surely keep you in her good books for some time.

Jeux de Liens Harmony necklace by Chaumet

Chaumet’s Jeux de Liens Harmony necklace make a wonderful Mother’s Day present. They’re elegant, contemporary and versatile, that you can wear them virtually everywhere – from a grocery run, boozy brunches to a fancy night out with friends. What’s more, these pieces can be personalised with an engraving on the gold side of the necklace.

My First necklace by De Beers

Should you want to give your mum some diamond jewellery, a piece from De Beers‘ My First De Beers is a wonderful option that’s not ostentatious and won’t necessarily break the bank. Created with first-time buyers in mind, My First De Beers offer a selection of small, subtle versions of the brand’s most iconic designs. They can be stacked with her other favourite jewels, so that she will never have to decide which one to wear on any given day.

Rose Des Vents necklace by Dior

For the playful, young and young-at-heart mum, we recommend Dior’s Rose Des Vents. Inspired by Christian Dior’s idea of a talisman medallion that features a star set on beautiful hardstones like lapis lazuli, onyx, turquoise and mother-of-pearl, among others, the Rose Des Vents pieces are crafted in white or yellow gold.

Love bracelet by Cartier

Now it’s almost impossible to go wrong with gifting a Cartier Love bracelet. A timeless piece of fine jewellery with an edgy design made iconic with its visible screws, the Cartier Love Bracelet comes with a mini screwdriver, which has to be used in order to unlock it from the wrist. Perhaps a fun reminder that your mum is never really ever rid of you? The piece also comes with a personalised Mother’s Day packaging upon request.

Serpent Bohème ear studs by Boucheron 

Is your mum the rebellious, cool one? The Serpent Bohème double motif single studs by Boucheron is an idea because yes, while they are studs, they’re elegant enough to be worn by say, more mature women. They come in yellow, white or pink gold with diamond pave. You can also create many different looks by adding a second detachable motif to the original one. There’s a variety to choose from: mother-of-pearl, lapiz lazuli and garnets, or just simply yellow and white gold.

Tiffany T Smile by Tiffany & Co

For the artistic, creative mum, the Tiffany T Smile necklaces and rings are a chic choice. Tiffany & Co’s T Smile brings together graphic angles and clean lines in a unique distillation of the Tiffany T collection’s sophisticated style. It’s subtle but makes a statement, and can be worn with her more artsy pieces like leather bands, beads and even friendship bracelets.

Chance Infinie rings by Fred

Fred‘s Chance Infinie collection is contemporary but sophisticated with its interlacing loops that form a figure eight motif signifying eternity. The pieces in the collection are paved with diamonds, and crafted in pink or white gold. These are for mums who like to dress smartly and prefer subtle pieces to accessorise.
