THE clock is ticking until Mother's Day in the UK: it falls on Sunday 14 March this year, so there's no better time to get searching for the perfect gift that will show her just how much she's appreciated.

If you're looking for a special and meaningful way to treat the woman who brought you into this world, a beautiful ring is something she'll treasure forever. And in fact, the best Mother's Day rings can be suited to anyone you hold dear on this day: from grandmother's and aunt's to stepmum's and substitute mamas. Basically, any maternal figure in your life who deserves to know how much you love and appreciate them. Go, mums!

Chocolates and flowers are traditional Mother's Day gifts that work just as well on this day of course, but if you're looking for something a little more long-lasting—a shimmering piece of jewellery is always guaranteed to impress. After all: who wouldn't want to show off a gorgeous keepsake ring from their loved ones?

From monogram rings and engraved options to birthstones and stylish on-trend designs, there are no rules when it comes to choosing your Mother's Day ring. You know your mum best, so have fun with it and select something that feels personal and suited to her taste: whether she adores a bit of sparkle, prefers minimal designs or loves anything personalised.

Buying a Mother's Day ring doesn't mean you have to spend a fortune either. If you have kids, picking up an inexpensive ring on their behalf means so much more than the price of diamonds—but of course, if you want to splash out, go for it!
