A jewellery gift for a new baby is really a gift for the mother — the child will not need jewellery for years.
What works with a baby in your arms A short 40–45 cm chain, a strong lobster clasp, a smooth bezel-set pendant with no sharp prongs, studs instead of drops, and no high settings. Rings often do not fit after birth anyway.
Formats with meaning A pendant with the birth date, the child initial, the birth month stone — May means emerald, September sapphire — or a piece designed to grow, with a stone added for each child.
Timing 7–10 days for an engraved pendant, 2–3 weeks for a custom piece. A practical route: order the piece in advance and engrave the date after the birth — that is one day of work.
