You Are My Sunshine

You've been the center of your mother's universe since the day you were born. Why not let her know she's the center of your solar system, at the very least?

For Mother's Day, we suggest the Helio pendant from Heather Perry Fine Jewelry — with or without a diamond in the center. We've long been fans of the Robbinston jeweler's work (and, quite frankly, Heather is so nice that we've long been fans of her personality, as well).

She earned a BFA in sculpture from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, and her training is evident in her designs. Each piece is at once substantial and graceful. And though she draws inspiration from the bold landscape Down East, you won't see any waves or seashells in her collections — only elegant echoes of nature.

The textural pendants and rings in her Emerge collection embrace the beauty of imperfection, while the Io collection is all feminine curves, soft textures and pretty pearls. But for Mother's Day, we're partial to Helio, inspired by the sun.

This year, give her a gift that really shines.

We just saw Heather's work at the Center for Maine Craft in Gardiner, but her jewelry is available online and in galleries throughout Maine and nationwide. Click here
