How to shop for Mother’s Day jewelry
When you’re just starting jewelry shopping for mom, there are a few questions you can ask to help you find a piece that’s personal to her.
- What type of jewelry does she wear most often? If your mother never leaves the house without earrings but her wrists are always bare, then earrings might be a better gift than a bracelet. And if your mother has rings galore, don’t dismiss another ring as something she couldn’t possibly need. She’s likely a ring enthusiast, in which case, another ring is exactly the gift she wants.
- What’s her jewelry personality? When your mother wears jewelry does she keep it simple and classic, or does she wear out-of-the-box jewelry to showcase her fun personality? You’ll want to find a piece of jewelry with the personality that complements your mom’s.
- What would make her feel special? Your mother may appreciate you gifting jewelry that made you think of her because of the thoughtfulness invested in it. She might like jewelry that reminds her of her children or the month of a significant milestone in her life. Or your mother may enjoy the beauty and artistry of a well-crafted piece the most.
- What’s her favorite color or color palette? You’ll want to find jewelry that your mom will love wearing. If mom is blue-obsessed, then find jewelry in sapphire, blue topaz, or aquamarine. If she loves all colors, choose a multi-colored scheme that matches the color palette she wears most often or one that looks great with her skin tone.
- What type of metal(s) does she prefer? Does Mom tend to wear gold or silver jewelry? Does she like mixed metals? Yellow gold or rose gold? When choosing jewelry for Mom, consider the metals she most often wears.
Best types of Mother’s Day jewelry
Of course, the best type of Mother’s Day jewelry is different for every mother. Our top picks highlight a few of our favorite types of jewelry for moms.
- Family or birthstone jewelry is a gift packed full of meaning. You could choose jewelry with your mother’s birthstone or a combination of all of her children’s birthstones. But family jewelry isn’t just limited to birthstones. The number of charms, beads, or other ornaments can signify the number of children in her family. Learn more about different birthstones and their meanings.
- Gold jewelry is a great choice for mom to represent how much you value her and tell her all that you learned from her is worth its weight in gold.
- Unique jewelry: If your mother would love jewelry that she’ll find no other mother wearing, then you’ve come to the right place. All of our jewelry is one-of-a-kind, and we’ve picked a few pieces that show off Q’s artistic flair.
- Colorful jewelry: When we say “colorful,” we don’t just mean a little splash of color on silver or gold; we mean jewelry in vibrant hues for the mom who’s full of fun.
- Beautiful budget buys: Expensive does not always mean special. Your love for your mom is not best reflected in a price tag, but in the thought you invest in finding a little something that will mean the world to her. So we’ve featured some of our favorite Mother’s Day jewelry under $200.
