Mother's Day, celebrated on the last Sunday in May in France (May 25, 2025), is the ideal occasion to honor those exceptional women who accompany us every day. This tradition, made official in France in 1950 by President Vincent Auriol, has become an unmissable occasion for expressing our love and gratitude. But how do you find the perfect gift that will touch your mother's heart? Between the classic bouquets of flowers and traditional boxes of chocolates, why not opt this year for a more personal and sentimental present? Discover our tips and ideas for a gift that will leave a lasting impression on your mom.
Which gift to choose according to your mother's personality?
Every mother has her own story, her own unique character and the little quirks we all know so well. To give her a gift that will truly touch her, draw inspiration from what makes her that exceptional woman in your eyes.
Does your mom have something the others don't? She who never goes out without being impeccable deserves a piece of jewelry as elegant as she is. A fine gold necklace that emphasizes the line of her neck or a delicate bracelet that accompanies her gestures with grace will show her that you admire the natural elegance that characterizes her.
Does she treasure your childhood drawings? Moms with a big heart who collect memories will be overwhelmed by a personalized piece of jewelry. Engraving your first name or a special date will transform a simple accessory into an emotional treasure she'll wear against her heart.
Is she calling to tell you about the latest trendy podcast? For this mom who's always one step ahead, opt for contemporary creations. A revisited infinity pendant or earrings with an original design will affirm her unique style and taste for innovation.
On weekends, she can be found in her garden? Mothers who are close to nature will blossom with jewelry that evokes what makes her tick. A delicately carved flower pendant or a ring adorned with a stone whose reflections change with the seasons will be in perfect harmony with her sensibility.
Does she juggle a thousand activities without ever slowing down? These super-moms who run from office to yoga class will appreciate a piece of jewelry that adapts to their hectic daily lives. Lightweight, comfortable creations that go from casual to chic effortlessly will accompany her on all her adventures.
Whatever its profile, a piece of jewelry chosen with love represents a promise of beauty that lasts through time, in the image of your unique relationship.

Why is a piece of jewelry a lasting gift?
Unlike ephemeral gifts, a piece of jewelry is long-lasting and accompanies your mother every day. Every time she adjusts that necklace or feels that bracelet against her skin, she'll be carrying your love with her.
Today's trends celebrate women in all their complexity. Floral creations evoke her delicacy while affirming her strength, while infinity symbols recall that indestructible maternal bond that unites you. The heart, far from being a cliché, is reinvented in contemporary designs that speak of love without falling into mawkishness.
Personalization transforms a simple piece of jewelry into a personal talisman. Your handwriting engraved in the precious metal, or a small drawing meaningful to both of you, make this creation unique in the world and impossible to reproduce.
Today's jewelry celebrates authenticity. Gone are the days of ostentatious jewelry worn for the sake of others! Modern women prefer pieces that resonate with their personalities, values and life paths.
Our advice for the right choice
Identify your preferences
Look at the jewelry your mother usually wears. Does she prefer gold or silver? Discreet or more imposing pieces? Her taste in colors and stones will guide you towards the perfect gift.
Know your morphology
Wrist size is essential when choosing a bracelet. For a ring, you'll need to know your finger size. Don't hesitate to consult the MATY size guide to help you make your choice.
Choosing the right style
Adapt your choice to her style of dress. A woman with a classic style will appreciate timeless jewelry, while a more eccentric personality may be seduced by original, colorful pieces.
Customize with precision
Personalization adds an emotional dimension to the gift. Choose a meaningful engraving: first name, important date, short but touching message. For a drawing, choose a motif that has meaning in your relationship.
Respecting your lifestyle
If your mother is very active, she'll prefer jewelry that's resistant and practical, and won't get in the way of her daily movements. A more sedate woman may appreciate more elaborate pieces for special occasions.

FAQ
When is Mother's Day in France?
In France, Mother's Day is celebrated on the last Sunday in May, unless this date coincides with Pentecost, in which case it is moved to the first Sunday in June. In 2025, Mother's Day will therefore be celebrated on Sunday May 25.
Can a piece of Maty jewelry be engraved?
Yes, MATY offers several personalization options for your jewelry. You can opt for hand engraving of text (first name, date, short message) or engraving of a design. These services are carried out by experienced artisan jewelers in the MATY workshop.
What jewelry to give a mother?
The choice of jewelry depends on your mother's personality and tastes. Necklaces with symbolic pendants (heart, infinity, flower) are very popular. Personalized bracelets or rings with birthstones are also excellent options. For the more classic mom, gold or silver earrings are a timeless choice.
How quickly can I order for delivery in time for Mother's Day?
To be sure of receiving your order on time, we recommend that you place your order at least 5 days before Mother's Day (depending on the availability of our jewelry). This allows time for any personalization and delivery. For orders with handwritten engravings or drawings, please allow an additional 2 to 3 days.
How can I find out my mother's jewelry size without asking her?
If you want to keep it a surprise, you can discreetly "borrow" a piece of jewelry she wears regularly and use it as a reference. For a ring, trace its inner contour on a sheet of paper, or use the size guide available on the MATY website. For a bracelet, measure the inside diameter of an existing bracelet.
