Our annual guide to Mother’s Day gifts, editors’ choice.
N.B. Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 14, which gives you exactly one week to get your gift in order.
Above: For her own mom, Justine’s thinking of a 100 percent cotton voile Pink Robe from Domi, a perennial favorite at our Remodelista markets; $168. On her own wish list (attention, Chad): Crystal Clear Berry Earrings from designer Ted Muehling; $150 from August in Los Angeles. (Most of our staff have a few pair in different colors.) Above: Says Margot: “My mother lives in a plant-filled apartment, I’m thinking of getting her one of these Edge Pots by Copenhagen studio Stilleben. They have a graceful tapered base that gives them an elevated look.” $53.75 for the large pot from Trouva. Above: An avid cook, Michelle knows well that one can never have too many high-quality towels in the kitchen. She spotted these Tea-Stained Weft Hand Towels after reading Justine’s story on Hand-Dyed Linens from Virginia Sin. Handmade in the United States, each towel is $56. Above: Stacey likes a gift with purpose; she’s giving her mom a set of Pink ACLU Glasses, hand-blown in North Carolina. They’re $105 for two at The Commons, which is donating 15 percent of sales to the ACLU. Above: For my vegetarian mother: On Vegetables from Jeremy Fox, famed former chef of Michelin-starred Ubuntu in Napa Valley, California; $31.89 on Amazon. Above: Says Alexa: “Every year I get my (chef) mom something fun and culinary-related. This year I’m thinking of sending her herbs and extracts from ILĀ. The little bottles are as beautiful as beauty products.” The Extra Virgin Olive Oil shown here is harvested in Cordoba, Spain; $24. Above: My little sister’s genius idea, which we’ll pair with the cookbook: An Emile Henry Bread Cloche in black ceramic for our kitchen-tool-obsessed mom; $130 from Food52.
