According to jewelry lore, the first mother’s ring was created about 60 years ago when a jeweler was searching for the perfect Mother’s Day gift for his wife. The clever jeweler took two wedding bands and joined them together with the birthstones of their three children, ultimately starting this trend. Since that first mother’s ring was created, the popularity of mothers rings and other keepsake birthstone jewelry has blossomed. Moms everywhere treasure these precious pieces that represent the bond shared between a mother and her children.
Modern mother’s rings come in all shapes and styles – from classic to contemporary. What’s more, keepsake birthstone jewelry for moms isn’t limited to rings. Pendants, bracelets, and charms are also popular. They make thoughtful, meaningful gifts—perfect for celebrating moms of all ages and moms of all personalities.
This 8 Stone Mothers Ring is shown with 3.5mm, 2.7m and 2.2mm stones. However, larger or smaller stones could be used. We could even make it with 3 bands instead of 4. We are showing it with diamonds, but we coudl easily create these with colored gemstones. The ring is totally customizable to your taste.
There are several origin stories to the practice of making Custom mothers rings for loved ones. But in order for us to examine trends in Mother’s Rings, it only makes sense that we look at their origins.
The Roman Story:
As the first ruler of Rome, Romulus was a cruel and hard man who ruled with fear. One day, a woman was brought into his court for flouting the curfew, when asked why, she confessed that she was out looking for a loaf of bread for her children. It is said that Romulus took off his own ring and gave it to the woman, declaring the curfew void and that from that day Rome was to be ruled by a council of citizens. Since the ring was presented to a mother, it has ever since been known as a Mother’s Ring.
A Personalized Mothers Ring makes for a beautiful gift every mother would cherish. However, usually they are cheesy, over the top, and just plain ugly. This 5 Stone Mothers Ring is elegant enough to also be work as a cocktail or right hand ring, but can still represent your loved ones without screaming mothers ring to anyone who sees it. It is shown with 2.7mm stones, but it could be made with larger or smaller stones. We think 3mm is the perfect size, but it isn’t our ring!
The Modern Story:
Sometime in the 1960s, a jeweler was looking for a unique piece to give his mother. That’s when a thought struck him, he decided to make a piece so unique, that none like it would have been crafted, until then. Thus he set about creating the first modern Custom mothers rings. For starters, he produced a rather simplistic band and he embellished it with two stones, his mother’s and his own. This was meant to represent, and acknowledge the love, respect and uniqueness of the bond that they shared. The rest as we know is retail history. Custom mothers rings have turned out to be an enduring and popular gift which has captivated people ever since.
