In other words, it’s the perfect gift for the discerning watch lover in your life.

Graff’s Twombly collection is inspired by the swirling shapes of American artist Cy Twombly’s paintings, so it’s perfect for anyone who has a penchant for fine art. This particular pair looks almost as if it was sketched by hand-lined with baguette-cut diamonds, and with a single pear-cut diamond hanging from each.

Maison d’Etto Noisette Fragrance
If mom’s bored of her current fragrance, or is just looking to try something new and different, it might be worth picking up a perfume or two from Maison d’Etto. The French brand specializes in making lush, gender-neutral scents—among them Noisette, which has top notes of orris and French lavender. Its minimalist design looks great on a nightstand, too.
Roscioli Wine Club
Making the trip to Italy has been tough this year, but a gift of twelve artisanal wines from the area may help quench any lingering wanderlust. Mom can enjoy two shipments of a dozen wines, selected by Roscioli, a restaurant in Rome known for its sprawling collection of premium vintages. Who knows, she may just discover a new favorite bottle.
Idda Studio Venere Pillow
Art’s great for hanging on walls, but it’s worth having imprinted on fabrics and accessories as well. Idda Studio’s silk pillow does just that, with original paintings of a Roman goddess by artist Gabriella Picone. Great for any moms who may have missed museum-going this past year.
Straightaway Sampler Pack
It’s her day, so she may very well want a drink—save her (or you) the trouble of having to make one with a sampler pack from Straightaway. The kit includes six of the brand’s premixed co*cktails: negroni, margarita, lintik, paper plane, cosmos and Oregon old fashioned. Just pop one open, pour it over ice, and you’ll be good to go.
Psychic Wand Candles
Candles make for a great gift, but most aren’t that visually stimulating. Artist Chris Schanck changes that formula with these cool-colored candlesticks, which look like the next piece in his bright, industrial “Alufoil” design series. Great for moms who favor more artistic presents.
