Spoil your Mother on her special day this year and treat her to a wonderfully sentimental piece from Azza Fahmy’s stunning Mother’s Day Collection.

The pieces in this gorgeous collection bear calligraphy and inscriptions designed to convey our special feelings of love and gratitude to one of the most special women in our lives. Featuring excerpts of poetry from the Lebanese-American artist, poet and writer Khalil Gibran the collection includes some exquisitely eye-catching ethnic-chic jewellery which has been beautifully crafted in 18 carat gold and sterling silver.

Contrary to popular belief, Mother’s Day was not conceived and fine-tuned in the boardroom of Hallmark Cards, rather, throughout history, motherhood has always been celebrated. In prehistoric tribes the mother Goddess was worshiped as the creator of life and female goddess figures have been found in many archaeological digs. In Azza Fahmy’s native Egypt, Isis was the Queen of Heaven who ruled over all matters concerning mothering. While in ancient Greece Rhea was revered as the mother goddess and in ancient Rome it was Hera, the wife of Zeus. Most mothering festivals historically took place in the springtime to celebrate the rebirth of the land and the beginning of the most fertile time of the year.
