By the fourth week of lent you’d be forgiven for having a brain consumed by thoughts of chocolate, or any other treats that you may have given up. But there is something much more important that you mustn’t forget - Mother’s Day.

Sandwiched somewhere in between Valentine’s Day and Easter, every year this date always seems to slip our minds. Our lack of memory results in a rushed gift for mum from the high street, or even worse a panic-bought gift from the shop closest to her house. We owe a lot to our mums, after all they have nurtured us with the love and support that has made us the people that we are today, and don’t they deserve a gift that they can truly cherish?

This year, forget about the cliché box of chocolates and bouquet of flowers, and give your mum something she would really adore. Don’t fear, there is plenty of time to track down the ideal present and William May are here to help. We have chosen five beautiful pieces that we think would make gorgeous gifts especially for Mother’s Day.

There’s no need to deliberate over whether or not your mum will love this gift, as this 9ct yellow and white gold crystal ball charm bracelet is guaranteed to be her next favourite piece of jewellery. This beautiful bracelet has a fancy link style and the gold colour gives it a vintage feel, while the white gold crystal balls add a touch of glamour to an everyday piece.

Earrings are the ideal way to add a touch of sophistication to an everyday look. Your mum’s smile will shine as bright as the dazzling gemstones in this pair of cubic zirconia set drop earrings once she opens this gift. This beautiful pair of floral-shaped earrings come in 9ct yellow gold with white cubic zirconia stones embellishing the inside.

Mother’s Day aligns perfectly with the beginning of spring. The sun makes its debut from behind the clouds, the flowers begin to flourish and the leaves turn a vibrant shade of green. What better way to welcome in the new season than buying this 18ct yellow gold leaf brooch? The gorgeous gold leaf design makes it the perfect spring accessory.

The modern shape of this white gold pendant gives the necklace an artistic flair, while the beautiful blue topaz gemstone ensures it maintains its femininity. The entire necklace is finished with a 9ct white gold chain in a flattering length.

One of the wonderful things about giving someone a watch as a gift is that you can be sure that the recipient can wear it every day. Now you can remind your mum of just how much she means to you by giving her this beautiful rotary bracelet watch. The unique pink mother of pearl dial is stunningly offset by the stainless steel case and bracelet, making it the epitome of sophistication and class.
