With Mother’s Day (30 March) fast approaching, it’s time to think about how you can treat the mother figure in your life. If you’re on the hunt for a heartfelt gift that feels extra special, jewellery is always a great option – especially when it’s personalised.
In line with this, jewellery brand Abbott Lyon has launched its Mother’s Day collection, filled with meaningful pieces designed to celebrate all kinds of mums. From engraved necklaces to custom charm bracelets and birthstone rings, there’s a gift to suit every style and sentiment – and they’re all anti-tarnish and resistant to water, sweat and heat.
One of our top picks is the Floating Birthstone Locket (£79), part of Stacey Solomon’s Floating Birthstone Collection. Available in gold and silver, this sentimental piece features a delicate heart-shaped locket with space for up to five birthstones inside – perfect for symbolising loved ones, such as children, friends, or even pets.
It’s a beautiful and personal way to keep those closest to your mum close. For something similar, we’d also recommend the Sterling Silver Birthstone Locket (£43) from HurleyBurley via Not On The High Street; it can be engraved with a birthstone.
Continuing with the theme of lockets, the Heart Photo Locket (£75) is a standout piece that’s caught our eye. It’s an everlasting design that allows you to carry a cherished photo close to your heart, reports Wales Online.
Customers have been quick to praise this necklace, with one calling it ‘beautiful’ and commenting on its ‘expensive due to its quality.’ Another customer was impressed by the clarity of the photo insert, describing it as ‘very clear’ and appreciating the ‘fast delivery.’
Additional feedback included remarks about the locket’s quality: “Lovely dainty chain and very sturdy locket. Photos were reduced in size perfectly inside, and they are really clear. Daughter loves it.” And for many, it triggered an emotional response, bringing ‘joy and tears’ to one shopper. Another said: “Got this as a present for my mum and safe to say there was tears over the locket – will definitely order from Abbott Lyon again.”
However, not all reviews have been glowing; one customer experienced itchiness, which led Abbott Lyon’s customer service to promptly invite them to get in touch for a resolution, assuring that ‘this definitely shouldn’t happen.’
Rounding off our highlights is the Birthstone and Luxe Letter Bracelet (£55), a delicate accessory that adds a personal touch with its customisable options. Available in gold, silver, and rose gold, it can be personalised with a birthstone and an initial, making it a thoughtful gift or a special treat for yourself.
The bracelet has won over shoppers too, with one praising its ‘adorable, dainty and delicate yet doesn’t feel in danger of breaking easily.’ However, there was a minor complaint from a buyer who found it ‘very delicate and big in size for me.’
One delighted customer praised the brand, saying: “Gorgeous bracelet. I’ve bought a lot of jewellery from Abbot Lyon over the years, and I’m never disappointed. Excellent quality and prompt delivery.”
If you’re in search of the perfect Mother’s Day gift, look no further than Abbott Lyon’s collection, which includes customisable necklaces with heartfelt inscriptions and charm bracelets that capture treasured memories.
