If you haven’t started thinking about Mother’s Day gifting, now’s the time. And while flowers are always a safe bet when it comes to the holiday, floral jewels are even better. Not only are they beautiful and thoughtful, but they’re made to last and can even become family heirlooms, passed down to generations of mothers to come. From more realistic interpretations, like a diamond bloom necklace, to playful ones, like a vintage pearl-doused brooch, there’s something for every type of mom—whether it’s from a child, spouse, or other. See below for the best floral jewelry for Mother’s Day.
AS29 Bloom necklace in 18k white gold with 2.25 cts. t.w. diamonds and a 0.3 ct. white sapphire, $6,850; Moda Operandi
A fourth-generation diamond dealer, the Belgian jeweler behind AS29 knows a thing or two about creating diamond pieces. This one in particular has a modern feel; as it’s called Bloom, it’s meant to act as a constant reminder that the process of blooming is never-ending, making the piece an emblem of growth and success.
Silvia Furmanovich earrings in 18k yellow gold with 10.4 cts. t.w. morganite, 0.65 cts. t.w. tsavorite, and marquetry, $7,260; Moda Operandi
The marquetry used to create intricate floral patterns in Silvia Furmanovich’s pink flower earrings gives the jewels a handmade, painterly effect. For a touch of glitz, they’re hung from vibrant gemstones.
Kurt Wayne vintage pin in 18k yellow gold with pearls and 1.85 cts. t.w. diamonds, $5,999; 1stDibs
Showcasing pearls (approximately 90 of them) as its centerpiece, Kurt Wayne’s vintage pin channels the bold attitude from the ’80s, the decade in which it was created. It’s the perfect accent piece for any look.
Tropical Flower tennis bracelet in 18k rose and white gold with rubies, rubellite, and 3.76 cts. t.w. diamonds, $36,480; Irene Neuwirth
You can’t go wrong with a tennis bracelet for moms. Irene Neuwirth’s, however, is not your average tennis bracelet. A one-of-a-kind piece, it features a hand-carved flower that was designed and handmade in Los Angeles.
