Mother's Day Gift Guide

Created by Moms: A Guide to the Perfect Mother's Day Gift

In honour of Mother’s Day, we've put together a unique selection of fine jewelry, each piece lovingly crafted in our in-house atelier in Montreal. Using ethically sourced materials, each piece serves as a testament to our commitment to creating a greener future.

From Erica, the Mom Who Designs

Our creative director, Erica, infuses her passion for design and sustainability into every piece she creates. She finds beauty in the natural world and translates it into elegantly simple pieces that captivate and inspire.

One such piece is the Iconic Duel gold wrap bangle. This distinctive jewel encapsulates the art of fencing with high-end gold spiralling around the wrist, united by a glistening diamond pavé in white gold. The Duel collection's sharp edges and clean lines embody Erica's penchant for bold, innovative design, made to impress and inspire.

Another one of her favourite pieces is the Heart-Shaped Diamond Pendant Necklace. Drawing inspiration from the splendour of old-world elegance, this necklace is a sight to behold. Like all of our Starlight pieces, the ethical heart-shaped diamond is adorned with utmost care and attention by Ecksand's team of highly skilled craftspeople, resulting in a mesmerizing piece that promises to last forever.

Each piece Erica designs is a testament to her belief in the harmony of luxury and sustainability, a belief that resonates with the ethos of Ecksand.

From Sanaa, the Mom Who Handcrafts

Sanaa, one of the maison's master jewellers, transforms 3d designs into exquisite pieces of art within our in-house atelier. Each jewel she sets, every curve she shapes, carries a piece of her heart. Her favourite pieces represent the perfect blend of craftsmanship and artistry.

Take, for instance, the Twisted Gold Knot Ring with Diamond Pavé. In a world of overcomplicated jewelry pieces, this ring offers an air of effortless sophistication. In the Tresses collection, high-end recycled gold is twisted artfully by our masterful craftspeople, including Sanaa, and accented by a brilliant diamond pavé to create an irresistible, eye-catching piece. It's the epitome of Sanaa's dedication to elevating simplicity into elegance.

Equally enchanting is the Rose-Cut Sapphire Cocktail Ring with Diamond Pavé from the Ecksand Mosaic collection. This piece sees traditional precious gemstones taking on an understated yet wearable faceting. It pays tribute to Mother Nature with its bold, show-stopping look. This ring encapsulates Sanaa's respect for natural beauty and her knack for bringing out the best in every gemstone.

Sanaa's selections are more than just jewelry; they are a celebration of the artistry and craftsmanship that goes into every piece we create at Ecksand. Her work is a testament to our commitment to producing ethical, sustainable, and truly beautiful jewelry.

From Alizée, the Mom Who Curates

Alizée, our stylist and Ecksand Expert has the knack for matching clients with their perfect piece of jewelry. Her selections are not only stunning but also resonate with our clients’ personal style and ethos.

One of the highlights in her selection is the Interlocking X's Five-Diamond Ring. This piece stands out as a bold yet timeless message of love. It features shimmering diamond accents and detailed gold silhouettes that combine to create the iconic Xs and Os, emblematic of the Ecksand maison, and a signature of the iconic XO collection. This ring exemplifies Alizee's taste for elegant simplicity intertwined with a lasting impression.

Another of Alizee's favourites invites you to escape the noise of everyday life: the Emerald Cluster Pendant Necklace from the Blossom collection. Enveloping the wearer in soothing tranquillity, the serene green gemstones strike a balance between sheer simplicity and luxurious opulence. It's a testament to Alizee's eye for pieces that marry the calming allure of nature with the radiance of fine jewelry.

Alizée's selections reflect the heart of Ecksand - a harmonious blend of beauty, elegance, and commitment to sustainability. Her keen eye for style and her understanding of our clients' needs ensure that each piece she selects not only looks stunning but also carries a deeper significance.

At Ecksand, we're more than a jewelry brand. We're a family of creators and curators, bound together by our shared commitment to ethical sourcing and sustainable practices. We believe in the importance of creating a greener future for our children and yours, and every piece of jewelry we handcraft reflects that commitment.
