Mother’s Day is also a day of love

10 May 2019

A solid base, a sweet and tender caress, eyes full of love that calm and make you feel at home. A mother has always been a trusted friend and our first role model. She is the one who soothed and loved us tenderly, knowing how to be resolute, faithful and protective and remaining constantly by our side at every instant of our life.

Origins of Mother’s Day
The tradition of Mother’s day goes back to the era of the ancient Greeks and Romans, who held festivals in honour of all mothers.
The day dedicated to mothers, as we know it today, was officially born in England in the 17th century. It was called “Mothering Sunday” and was organised on the fourth Sunday of Lent to allow children who lived far from their families to return home. They brought red roses as a gift to their mothers who prepared the “Mothering cake”, a fruit cake to be shared with the whole family.
In Italy, the celebration first appeared in 1957 and, the following year the 8th of May became a national holiday. This date, however, did not allow working mothers to spend the day with their children, so in 2001 the holiday was moved to the second Sunday of May.

Give your mother a jewel made with the heart
Have you already thought of a precious gift to give the one who held you close to her heart for 9 months?
The Batticuore jewellery line captures the uniqueness, beauty and power of the bond between a mother and child with a simple, but poignant symbol: the heart.
The entire collection features pieces with an original design that emanate elegance and sophistication with a classic yet modern style.
All the rings, the Cupido pendent and earrings are made with diamonds of different sizes which can be selected according to the needs of each customer.
The stones are personally selected by the designer Marzia Pendini and all the Salvadori diamonds weighing over 0.30 – 0.40 carats are accompanied by the international GIA and HRD certificates, and have different characteristics.
