Lisa Ray Instagram – #MyBirksStory There’s something about Mother’s Day 2021 that poignantly brings to mind the challenges and sacrifices yet ultimate joy of motherhood. I’ve had some time to reflect on my mother. I miss her. Every Mother’s Day I observed a cherished ritual: she would take out her favourite gold earrings and fasten bangles on her wrists. This was jewellery passed on to her from my father’s family in India. Watching the traditional Indian gold gleam in her blond hair was a perfect visual celebration of my mixed cultural heritage and my mother’s spirit. I hope to pass on precious memories and impressions laden with heritage like this to my daughters, Sufi and Soleil. I chose these pieces from Birks for their timeless elegance, craftsmanship and ability to evoke new rituals. For me, they symbolise strength, beauty, resilience and the gleam in every mother’s heart.
