We love a good shopping challenge, and uncovering the best Mother’s Day gifts on Amazon—ones that feel thoughtful and unique despite their Prime eligibility—is certainly that. But with the help of our whole team, we’re confident in our roster of 30-plus ideas spanning six crowd-pleasing categories, from kitchen essentials to beauty buys. Below, check out our stacked list of surprisingly stylish finds. Psst: A handful are on sale!
Best Kitchen Gifts
We went hunting specifically for kitchen gifts that make some cooking-related task more enjoyable, whether through elevated aesthetics, superior function, or ideally both. This year, we managed to narrow it down to a generously-sized French pepper grinder made of beech wood, genuinely fast-drying dish towels, a toaster dressed up in polka dots, and a stainless-steel electric kettle with a spout that never drips.
Best Book Gifts
The mother figures in your life will return to these coffee table reads again and again: Mother/Founder for insightful stories of women who’ve grown their businesses alongside their families; Martha Stewart’s Gardening Handbook for nitty-gritty gardening advice; Breakfast, Lunch, Tea with Children for a new kid-friendly cooking adventure; and Live With the Things You Love for decorating inspiration from stylish collectors.
Best Tableware Gifts
Amazon is already a Domino-editor favorite for affordable dinnerware staples, so tapping the retailer for Mother’s Day gifts in that realm wasn’t much of a stretch. For starters, we uncovered a modern take on the classic martini glass, swirly enamelware from a heritage brand, Italian dessert plates that transport you to the Mediterranean, and scalloped napkins in a springtime color combo. Other charmers we had to share: a speckled ice bucket that reminds us of Murano glass and a pair of quirky dishes dreamed up by iconic London chef Yotam Ottolenghi.
Best Home Decor Gifts
They may not be travel souvenirs or vintage scores, but these metal marvels, painterly ceramics, and other little luxuries are conversation-starters nonetheless.
Best Beauty & Wellness Gifts
Amazon’s luxury beauty selection is strong, offering a wide range of crowd-favorite labels, from cool-girl staples Saie, Baggu, and TheraFace to German heritage brand Shash.
Best Food & Drink Gifts
While these options are perishable, they’ll last your loved one way past Mother’s Day weekend. For the savory lovers, we’ve got a giant tin of Spanish potato chips and a pantry-ready canister of single-origin California olive oil. For the sweet tooths, French butter cookies perfected over generations and a five-pack of Swedish fish candy straight from Malmö.
Best Unique Gifts
We define a unique gift as something splurge-y and a little over the top that your giftee would never think to buy herself. We’re talking the famous steam-powered toaster that promises bread that tastes fresh-baked every time, a rainbow of real Murano glassware, a backyard fire pit that never gets smoky, and a classic turntable with modern-day Bluetooth connectivity.
