When the celebrated Lebanese poet and philosopher Kahlil Gibran wrote in The Prophet, “work is love made visible”, he was referring, of course, to the actual work that we do. But these very words, of all words, found their way to the surface our foamy thoughts while we pondered the shape-shifting nature of love […]

  It’s December. Yes, already. That means we’ve officially entered into Christmas season. Although it hasn’t been an easy year, there is still ample to celebrate and be grateful for. Most of us are home for Christmas, enjoying the proximity to those we love. Shopping for gifts, too, feels much more intimate this year. You […]

  “The key to style is learning who you are, which takes years. There’s no how-to road map to style. It’s about self-expression and, above all, attitude.” — Iris Apfel   We read somewhere that everything begins again when September comes.

You know that famed Patek Philippe ad. “You never actually own a Patek Philippe. You merely look after it for the next generation.” We share the same sentiment when it comes to our jewellery. A diamond, to us, is not just a shiny accoutrement. It is a love letter to the person who receives it, and every piece is designed to last generations.

If you think about it, we spend a decent amount of time and money celebrating the successes and milestones of others — whether it’s their birthdays, new homes and jobs, weddings and newborns, or anniversaries.
