Good to Have You Back
Since civilizations have evolved, incredible women from every culture and corner of the globe have served as strong role models. From the powerful Queen Cleopatra of ancient Egypt to the brave Joan of Arc who fought for France; from Marie Curie who won not one – but two – Nobel Prizes to Ada Lovelace, the world’s first computer programmer; from the kind and empathetic Florence Nightingale to the free-spirited Frida Kahlo, there is no dearth of notable women to quote. International Women’s Day is a perfect occasion to applaud and celebrate the special women in our lives. They may not be publicly renowned icons who evoke awe, but their mere presence is enough to inspire and motivate those around them. As a brand, we believe in every woman’s potential to make the world a better and more equitable place, and what is better than a graceful jewelry gift to acknowledge her stature and pay tribute to her values?

International Women’s Day was first observed on March 8, 1908, when a whopping 15,000 women marched across New York City demanding equal rights with men for labor and the right to vote. In 1911, a group of European nations – Austria, Germany, Switzerland, and Denmark – followed suit and celebrated International Women’s Day on March 19. It wasn’t until 1975 that the United Nations recognized it as a worldwide celebration to be undertaken by member states.

President Barack Obama proclaimed the entire month of March 2011 as Women’s History Month. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, launched the ‘100 Women Initiative: Empowering Women and Girls Through International Exchanges.' In countries worldwide, women’s rights organizations, the media, workplaces, and even the retail industry started taking International Women’s Day seriously, elevating the day to global prominence.

Each year, the UN announces a theme for International Women’s Day, and in 2023, it is - Innovation for a Gender-Equal Future. This is to bridge the gap in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) careers that are male dominated, even now. It also throws a spotlight on the digital divide and the disparity in the availability and use of technology between men and women across the globe, especially in developing nations. For your jewelry gift for the day, if you can stretch your budget to $750-$1,000, you can pick some really exquisite pieces, including a criss-cross ring and a pair of twisted earrings – symbolic of the multi-faceted women in your life.
