Different cities, different decades, same phone call twice a week. "Mothers And Daughters Are Never Truly Apart — Maybe In Distance But Never In Heart" is printed on a glossy ceramic heart that hangs where she will see it.

Hand pressed and glazed so the words stay sharp for years. A first Christmas apart, a daughter who moved for work, a mom in another state: this is the one.

Why You'll Love It

  • "Maybe In Distance But Never In Heart" — the second line is the one that gets people
  • Glossy ceramic, hand pressed, weighted like a keepsake rather than a trinket
  • Fused graphic under a smooth glaze, so the lettering never lifts
  • 2.875 inches across, big enough to read and small enough to mail
  • Hangs easily on a slim branch without bending it
  • Comes out of storage every December in both houses at once
  • Designed and hand pressed in the USA

Perfect Gift For

Moms and daughters, long-distance families, first Christmases apart, college years, moving days, Mother's Day, and the two people who can talk for an hour and say nothing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What do you send a mom you will not see at Christmas?
A: Send something that will be in the room on the day even if you cannot be, which is what an ornament does better than most gifts. She hangs it, and it stays up for the whole season.

Q: Is the ceramic heavy enough to pull a branch down?
A: A heart under three inches wide sits comfortably on a real branch or an artificial one without bending it. It is solid in the hand but light on the tree.

Q: Can a daughter and a mom each hang one?
A: Buying a pair is common with this saying, precisely because it is about two houses rather than one. The line means the same thing on either tree.

Q: Is this appropriate if the distance is recent and still raw?
A: A first Christmas apart is exactly when this reads best, because it names the distance instead of pretending it is not there. It is warm rather than sad.

Q: Does it work for a mother and son?
A: The saying names daughters specifically, so a son would be better served by a different one. For a mother and daughter it is about as direct as the sentiment gets.

Q: How early should I post it to arrive in time?
A: Getting it into the post by the first week of December is comfortable for domestic delivery. It is small and light, so shipping it is straightforward.
