Jewelry Gifts to Surprise Your Mother-in-Law

You get a different set of parents when you marry someone. Slowly, they become part of your life and start to mean a lot. Mothers-in-law, especially given the amount of time you spend with them and how much you guys share with each other. It is only justified to pamper her with all you can, and what better to do than with your favorite jewelry pieces.

For a long time now, we associate elderly people with conventional-looking designs which we think are ‘meant’ for them. Having a predefined notion of what a person (of any age) would like restricts our worldview and, ultimately, our choices. We live in a day and age where there are more choices than ever.

We can choose from different items, and there would be more left to be explored. Moreover, it would not be just to our loving mothers-in-law to get the same kind of jewelry pieces which they were getting ten years ago. They deserve better. 

From a Shugnite earring to a personalized necklace, here are some items that you should consider when you plan to surprise your mother-in-law with next. We are sure that she is going to appreciate it. 

1. Shungite Earrings

If you want to gift your mother-in-law something unique that can be advantageous for her overall health as well, then Shungite earrings are the perfect pair to grab. The natural, lustrous stone is so powerful; where do we even begin? It has many important uses, such as detox and anti-bacterial properties, can help balance the body’s chakras, protect against EMFs, improve skin infections, help with inflammatory diseases, and more.

Your mother-in-law can wear the pair of earrings daily to feel relief from stress, anxiety and can rejuvenate her mind and soul. She can elevate any outfit from a blouse to a maxi dress simply by pairing the earrings with a small pendant or bangles. 

2. Tanzanite Pendant

Instead of settling for a plain diamond pendant, choose something more alluring and effective – a Tanzanite pendant. The beautiful qualities of this stone are endless – it has a pleochroic nature, meaning that the colors of the stone can change under different angles.

Tanzanite looks even more brilliant and rare than a blue Sapphire, from ultramarines to deep burgundies and violet tones. It is commonly believed that Tanzanite has several healing properties; it can stimulate a person’s mind and consciousness, allowing them to attune themselves to spiritual energies.

It is also known to strengthen bonds, help connect and communicate with others, and enable a person to believe in their inner abilities. Your mother-in-law will genuinely appreciate this beautiful pendant, and she can style it effortlessly for every occasion, from hitting a store for groceries to an extravagant dinner party.

3. Personalized Necklace

Gifting personalized necklaces to your mother-in-law may be the best thing you do this year. Before you pick the prettiest necklace, make sure that it’s the right metal tone for her skin and has a high-grade metal finish, as she might share the feedback directly with your significant other! Plus, you can go for a vintage-inspired locket, with her initials engraved on top for that extra-special appeal.

While the bond that one shares with their mother-in-law may be a bit strained and confusing at times, it shouldn’t come in between the love and affection you have for them, after all. Above all, family is predominantly the first thing for each mother, and giving them a personal locket with a small picture or engraving could represent the love they shower on every member. 

4. Jade Pendant

This piece of jewelry may just become your mother-in-law’s favorite thing. Jade jewelry is compelling as it’s known to carry properties that can benefit the wearer in all ways – physically, emotionally, and spiritually. In Chinese culture, the stone has been symbolic of one’s status, connection to spirituality, purification, and aid to physical health for many centuries. Its translucent green color soothing the eyes yet offers brilliant luster and adds radiant beauty to the person’s face when worn over bare skin.

It’s known to bring luck and laughter into a person’s life while shielding them from adverse environmental forces. It’s also meant to heal the body, including hormonal imbalances, issues related to the bladder or kidneys. Your mother-in-law can style the pendant in several ways; however, it can be worn with a cool-tone metal chain for a simple and sophisticated look. 

5. Lapis Lazuli Necklace

If your mother-in-law is keen to be connected to nature, then a Lapis Lazuli necklace will be the perfect gift for her. The deep cobalt blue semi-precious stone has multiple healing properties such as awakening a spiritual awareness, protecting the person from negative energies, helping a person gain self-awareness, enhancing wisdom, success, and emotional intelligence. The stone can also be attained in polished or unpolished form and will look elegant strung to a silver or white metal chain.

Your mother-in-law can pair the necklace with her daily outfits to get a head-to-toe cleansing of her aura and boost her immune system. It will look gorgeous with a wide-neck white top or dress and can be combined with a beautiful pair of earrings.
