Picking the Perfect Jewellery Design for Mother’s Day!
Picking the Perfect Jewellery Design for Mother’s Day!
When you want to mark a momentous occasion, diamond jewellery does it like no other gift.
Why is that, you ask? Well…
Flowers wilt, a nice meal lasts a couple hours, a gift card gets spent: but the right designed jewellery will last a lifetime and every time she looks at it, or hopefully wears it, she’ll remember this special moment.
She’ll remember how you shared in welcoming your child, or meeting your first grandchild. She’ll remember your loving gesture of appreciation for the amazing mother she is.
Diamond Jewellery is really the best option to commemorate a truly special moment, like the 1st Mother’s Day after a new baby, or a first grandchild. Or even if it’s “just because” this Mother’s Day, that can mean even more.
But how do you pick out a beautiful, quality designed jewellery that she’ll love?
And, even more so, how do you make sure you’re not getting taken for a ride by a shady dealer?

How to Get a Special Jewellery Design For Her Unique Tastes
1. Get to know her jewellery style & what she wants:
Simply looking at the pieces she wears can tell you a lot. Does she like bigger more prominent jewels, or does she lean toward more minimal delicate pieces? The ones she saves for special occasions where she wants to dress up and feel beautiful are likely her favourite pieces. Pay particular attention to those styles.
Most women will also give you some hints as to the type of pieces they like to wear, often even stating preferences aloud. So, think back to any hints she may have already given.
Or, if you want more feedback, you can even ask some subtle questions about the jewellery she wears. Simply notice something she has on, compliment her about it and ask a question about the gemstone, or the style if you can fit one naturally into the conversation. This is a good way to get her talking about her jewellery style preferences.
If you have any pictures of her wearing visible jewellery from special occasions, those can be a wonderful resource to get an idea of her favourites. You can even bring the images in to an experienced jeweler to give you an expert eye in identifying what she’ll really love.
2. Identify what type of jewellery design you want to get
Identify what type of jewellery design you want to get
A jeweller might be able to help you here, but you’ll want to identify what sort of present you’re looking for. Do you want to get her a necklace? Earrings? A full matching set?
The most popular Mother’s Day jewellery items that are trending now are stackable diamond rings. Not only a favourite gift, but can be a very affordable one as well. And the safest, most consistently popular and well-loved staples for any woman are diamond solitaire studs, diamond tennis bracelets, and diamond eternity stackable bands.
Get your mom diamond solitaire studs, diamond tennis bracelets, or diamond eternity stackable bands.
3. If you’re celebrating an occasion: think about how the piece can relate to the special event
If you really want to step it up a notch and immortalize this important moment, think about how the piece can connect to the celebration.
For example, can you get accent stones in the birthstone of the new baby? Or a custom piece with gemstones representing the birthstone of each grandchild?
If you’re really keen on creating a special, unique piece to connect to her, personally, then consider finding good custom jewelers to make something truly one-of-a-kind where all the work is done in-house and on premises.
4. Know your budget
It’s important to establish a realistic budget for your quality piece. This way, when you seek the advice of your expert jeweler, you’ll be able to communicate what you can afford and they can help you find the perfect gift that matches what you can spend.

Finding a Trustworthy Specialist Jeweler in Toronto
Unless you intend to spend years gathering the knowledge, tools and ability to assess gemstones and jewellery yourself… you’ll likely want to focus on finding a jeweller you can trust to help you choose a gift. This is the best way to protect your investment, and make sure you get a great quality gift for your loved one!
1. Established
One of the highest indicators of a trustworthy store is the years it has been in business. You don’t get to be an established business in a community for decades if you’re in the business of cheating people.
An established business is also more likely to stay in business, which means they’ll be able to honour any guarantees and warranties they offer for your piece. A warranty won’t do you any good if this is a company that will close up shop and move on to another location to find new suckers.
A long-lasting, established business is the number 1 must-have.
Another addition to this point is that an established and consistent location or storefront is much more easy to validate than an online business in this respect. If you can directly visit a showroom, that can help you to ensure the business has been part of a community for a while.
2. Reputation
Check for reviews. Not just on the business’s established website, but on platforms where they can’t pick and choose which reviews to show you. For example, on Yelp, or on their Social Media platforms.
3. Guarantees
Guarantees come in a few forms when it comes to jewellery, and you’ll want to look for all of these:
- Long warranties: a good Toronto jeweler will offer warranties to ensure you are getting a long-lasting quality item.
- Appraisals: Expensive gems should come with an assurance of the authenticity and value. A good jeweler will offer appraisal documents with their high-value products. Ideally, the appraisal should be carried out by an impartial 3rd party, rather than the jeweler themselves.
- The jeweler should also be able to show you a stamp authenticating the quality of the metal if you ask for one, not just the gemstones.
4. Specialization & Credentials
Slightly different from being established, you’ll want to ensure your jeweler has the necessary certifications and experience to validate their expertise on the subject. Depending on what services you’re looking for, the necessary certifications can vary. If you’re looking for custom work you’ll want to ensure a certified gemologist, and a certified goldsmith, and/or a certified model maker are on the premises. But, the most important thing in regards to credentials is in the Guarantees section, the appraisal of the jewellery itself matters most!
5. Caring
One of the most important factors in choosing any jeweler is the simple question: do you trust them? When you meet with them do they make you feel that they are listening to what you want? Are they trying to push you to higher ticket items without paying attention to your (realistic) budget, or what sort of a gift you’d like to get?
Do they seem knowledgeable? Are they able to answer all your questions?
The right certified jeweler should make you feel like they care what you want, they care about your needs and budget, and they care about helping you find something that will be a perfect gift for your mother or the mother of your kids!
