Stauer Jewelry Exceeds Mother's Day Expectations For Under $50

RICHMOND, Va., May 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Mother's Day is Sunday, May 13, 2012.  Jewelry has been the gift of choice for Mother's Day since the holiday was created in 1908 (President Woodrow Wilson made it official in 1914). According to Stauer Jewelry (www.Stauer.com), the right combination of precious metals and gems serves as the perfect reminder that motherly love lasts all year long while flowers or chocolates are quickly gone and forgotten.
