JEWELRY FOR MOTHER’S DAY
A long standing tradition!
Mother's Day is a special day to honor and appreciate mothers for all that they do. Celebrated on the second Sunday in May (and various dates around the world), there is one thing that is a given: Mother’s Day is a time for showing gratitude and love to the most important woman in our lives. And, while flowers, a brunch, or evening dinner out remain popular, the gift of fine jewelry is actually the second most popular gift choice, and only second to a greeting card! And, this little fact will come to no surprise: Mother’s Day is the most popular day for phone calls. In fact, there is a 13% increase in phone calls compared to an average Sunday according to AT&T!
Since many of us at Lewis Jewelers are actually moms, celebrating Mother’s Day has become one of our favorite holidays to celebrate with our friends and customers. There’s a deep history and tradition of giving jewelry for this special day dating back to the ancient Greeks and Romans who too, would give their mothers gifts of jewelry to honor them. The most expensive piece of jewelry ever sold as a Mother's Day gift was a blue diamond ring, which sold for $10 million in 2015. The ring was purchased by a Hong Kong businessman for his mother.
At Lewis Jewelers now more than ever, the gift-giving ideas can run the gamut.
Diamond jewelry never goes out of style. Designers like David Yurman, Lagos, and our own Bliss Collection are affordably priced to say “I love you” without breaking the bank!
Once of the most popular gifts in jewelry is the gift of personalized jewelry. Anything you can engrave with names and initials of children or grandchildren is not only thoughtful, but a sentimental gift choice.
If you are looking for something new and becoming all the rage, you will want to grab your mom (or mom friends), and grandmother and consider getting LINKED!
