An influencer has been left stunned after discovering a treasure trove of gold jewelry that was left sitting in her mom’s house in Mexico.

US-based content creator Yolanda Diaz posted a TikTok as she uncovered each item – ranging from earrings to bracelets to necklaces.

Yolanda humorously shared that ‘Mexican babies are dripped out’ thanks to their parents gifting them so much ‘baby jewelry’ as newborns.  

In the video, she unlocked her ‘deepest memories’ from her childhood and learned the sentimental stories behind the gleaming gold pieces.

In the clip, which has so far been viewed more than 2.8 million times, Yolanda explained how her reconnection to her roots was provoked when her mother suddenly asked her: ‘Do you wanna take home your baby jewelry?’

She continued: ‘Then she whips out the coolest jewelry that I’ve ever seen.’ 

Launching straight into the unexpected haul, she said: ‘First off, we have our baby bracelets.

‘Mexican babies are dripped out,’ Yolanda declared pointing to the gold chain, which she referred to as a pulsera.

‘I don’t know if this was mine, I don’t know if it was my brother’s, but it still fits my wrist….’

The next item that the content creator held up to the camera was an elephant ring, which awakened a nostalgic response.

‘This unlocked the deepest memory for me. The moment I saw it, it clicked that that used to be mine when I was little,’ Yolanda said.

She explained that now ‘it hardly fits any finger’ but declared: ‘How pretty is that? It’s a little elephant with a little ruby in it.’

Next, Yolanda showcased a second ring that featured ‘two little diamonds and a ruby on it,’ and she commented that its ‘so pretty’ and confirmed that she ‘would wear that today.’

While still in shock, she went on to explain that her mother ‘just casually has the most stunning little vintage watch she’s never worn.’

Yolanda vowed to wear the timepiece ‘every day,’ but the treasure trove did not stop there.

Holding up a pair of gold earrings, she said: ‘These are decades old. They’re so beautiful. They’re from Oaxaca in Mexico.’

Yolanda proceeded to ask her mom about the story behind the earrings and when she heard, her jaw dropped.

With a radiant smile, she told her 1.4 million followers: ‘They were my great grandmother’s whose name was Celestina.

‘She gave them to my grandmother on her wedding day – my grandmother’s name was Delfina. How beautiful are their names?’

She continued: ‘Before my grandma passed, she gave these to my mom, who is now giving them to me.

‘However, I’m gonna keep them here because they feel so delicate and fragile. Feel like they would be safer here.’

Yolanda then held up ‘the coolest piece’ that her mother wanted her to take home was a gold-plated necklace of her name. 

She shared: ‘I haven’t seen this in years.’

The content creator concluded the video by enthusiastically saying: ‘This woman had me dripped out as a toddler. How cool is all that?’

Yolanda’s video was quickly flooded with lots of supportive comments from viewers.

One person wrote, ‘This is so wonderful. I love that your mother kept these for you,’ and Yolanda replied: ‘Me too, it means the world.’

Another follower added: ‘I adore you and your love for your family.’

‘Awww now you get to give your future babies your baby jewelry,’ someone else wrote. 

A fourth commenter added: ‘Ugh my whole heart.’

Many commenters shared in the cultural tradition of getting jewelry as babies. 

One person wrote: ‘Omgg this made me emotional, some of my favorite/most special pieces of jewelry are those passed down to me from my parents. Also, the name plate. OBSESSED!’

Another follower added: ‘I’m half Albanian and also have a baby bracelet like that lol.’  

‘I’m Honduran and my mom gave me a pulsera too when I was little,’ a third person commented. 

‘Italian families too have the golden bracelet tradition,’ someone else added. 

One person wrote: ‘I don’t know what part of Oaxaca your mom is from, but my family is also from Oaxaca and when we got married, our parents gave us our wedding earrings.’
