Ref No: US070/20032

Design: California-based lawyer turned jewelry designer, Azra Mehdi, proves it's never too late to pursue your passion. Her love for jewelry is rooted in her Indian heritage - growing up, gold jewelry symbolized both love and female empowerment. Azra designs timeless, elegant and versatile fine jewelry using ethically sourced, superior materials. She aims for investment quality pieces that will make you feel beautiful, confident and ready to take on the world.

Style Notes: The Japanese Mom necklace depicts the humble word for mother in Japanese, 母 (haha), although there are other variations. The use of 母 (haha) in this pendant was by design since this is the word one uses when speaking about your own mother, rather than to refer to other people's mothers. The square shape of the pendant is also by design because it's one of three symbolic shapes in Japanese culture – it symbolizes a prolonged state of presence, when the God within has awakened. The symbolism of the reference to one's own mother in a heightened sense of awakening deeply influenced the Japanese Mom necklace design.
