Birthstone Ring as a Gift for a Newborn – For the Mother
A birthstone ring to celebrate a birth is one of the most meaningful gift ideas there is. The stone represents the month in which the child was born—and the mother wears this moment on her finger forever. Expectant fathers, partners, grandparents, or close friends: If you want to give a new mother a meaningful gift, a birthstone ring featuring the child’s birth month is the perfect choice. No other piece of jewellery connects mother and child so directly. Velur delivers every ring in premium gift packaging—ready to give, with free engraving included.
Materials & Quality
Gold vermeil consists of 925 sterling silver with a thick 18k gold plating—it looks like solid gold and is the choice for anyone who wants real gold without paying the price of 14k gold. 14k gold is solid gold: scratch-resistant, hypoallergenic, and built to last a lifetime. No tarnishing, no coating that wears off. For baby gifts, we recommend gold vermeil. For rings meant to be worn daily and last for decades, 14k gold is the better investment. All Velur rings come with free engraving and premium gift packaging.
