Mother’s Day is that special annual opportunity to shower Mom with everything she deserves—heartfelt notes, fragrant blooms, and, of course, a piece of fine jewelry she’ll treasure for years to come. As someone who’s watched my own mother expertly curate her collection over decades, I know that the right necklace, bracelet, pair of earrings, or ring can become a daily reminder of love (not to mention something I’ll happily borrow at every family gathering). This year, I’ve scoured Jared Jewelers’ latest offerings to assemble a thoughtfully edited guide of timeless pieces—each as durable as they are beautiful, and all perfect for celebrating the woman who’s brought so much sparkle into our lives.
Modern Classics: Necklaces to Cherish
Lab‑Created Diamond Solitaire Necklace (½ ct. tw., 14k White Gold, 19″) – $950
A single, brilliant-cut lab-grown diamond suspended on a fine gold chain offers understated elegance. This piece sits just at the collarbone, giving both daywear and evening attire a touch of refined sparkle.
Cultured Pearl Lariat Strand (14k Yellow Gold, 24″) – $800
Pearls never go out of style, and here they’re paired with a delicate gold lariat design that allows you to adjust the drop length. Wear it draped loosely for casual chic, or pull it taut for more sophisticated occasions.
Italia D’Oro Paper Clip Chain Necklace (14k Yellow Gold, 18″, 3.9 mm) – $1,100
Bold yet timeless: this chain’s slightly oversized links nod to modern minimalism while remaining a classic staple. It shines just as well solo as it does layered with other pendants.
Marquise & Round‑Cut Diamond Two‑Stone Necklace (2 ct. tw., 14k Yellow Gold, 18″) – $2,100
This duo of lab-created diamonds—a marquise paired with a round brilliant—symbolizes the past and present of Mum’s journey. It’s an artistic twist on the solitaire, perfect for adding a sculptural accent to any neckline.
Bracelets & Watches: Timepieces That Tell Your Story

Choosing the Perfect Piece
When selecting a gift, think about Mom’s personal style. Does she adore classic pearls, or does she crave the sparkle of fine diamonds? Are her wrists bare or already layered with bracelets? Opt for lab-created diamonds when you want brilliance with sustainability, and choose yellow gold for its warm glow or white gold for cool, modern appeal. And remember: a piece of fine jewelry isn’t just a gift—it’s an heirloom in the making.
This Mother’s Day, go beyond the usual flowers and chocolates. Invest in a piece of jewelry that she can wear, wear again, and treasure forever—long after the last rose petal has fallen. With this edit from Jared Jewelers, you’ll find something as flawless as she is, and just as enduring.
