There is nothing like the thrill of newfound love. Love is beautiful and mysterious, it can be stable and comforting, or it can be terrifying and vulnerable. All the different forms of love are just as significant as the other.
Lladró has been making sculptures for 70 years (2023 is their 70th anniversary!), and their pieces have been proven to stand the test of time. This is why some choose to gift Lladró’s handmade porcelain sculptures as an expression of love, to borrow on the connotation of eternal love. The Spanish brand is also known for creating pieces that depict the little moments of tenderness and important milestones, so you can pick a piece that perfectly matches your sentiment of love.
EMBRACED by Jamie Hayon
“How you love yourself is how you teach others to love you“ - Rupi Kaur
We have recently settled down into the “new normal“ after the pandemic. Many of our social constructs have been redesigned and more people are suffering from social isolation and mental health issues.
Embraced, a new sculpture designed by Jaime Hayon is a modern totem that serves as a reminder to oneself of the importance of self-care. The famed designer identified mental health as being the biggest struggle of current society, and Embraced is a reminder of what the solution is in order to contain and eliminate internal suffering.
The greatest love is the one you have with yourself. Embraced will remind you of the importance of taking care of yourself every time you look at it.
Embraced has received recognition and praise, even nominated as a finalist for “Best Design Collaboration” in Créateurs Design Award.

PAPER BOATS
A true friend is very hard to find. It is the family you chose, the cheerleader that celebrates your biggest triumphs, and the person that holds you intact as you endure your darkest despairs. They understand you more than you understand yourself. So what better gift than one that denotes what reminds you of them?
Childhood is innocent and precious. Children will enjoy the simplest activities, such as making paper boats, as long as it is in good company. Paper Boats is a heart warming piece that will remind you of appreciating the smaller things in life.
A MOTHER’S LOVE AND PATERNAL PROTECTION
A mother’s love is unconditional. Think about your own mom, how she is able to intuitively sense something is wrong and is your biggest supporter when you achieve anything. Mothers have a stronger empathy for their children, they put themselves in their children’s situations to acquire a better understanding of their needs and emotions, which explains the reason why your mother knows you better than you know yourself.
A dad is your first superhero, your first prince charming. He gives you support and guidance, and he is always there to catch you if you fall. When it might feel like the ship is sinking, a father will be there to make sure you are not drowning.
