The day started like any other on the beautiful island of Mauritius. The turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean lapped against the sandy shores, and the gentle breeze carried the scent of frangipani flowers.

But everything changed when a ship ran aground on a nearby coral reef, spilling thousands of tons of oil into the pristine waters. The disaster was a devastating blow to the delicate ecosystem of the island, and it left many people feeling helpless and heartbroken.

Even in the face of this tragedy, there was hope. The people of Mauritius came together to clean up the spill and protect their precious ecosystem. Volunteers worked tirelessly, removing oil from the beaches and helping to rescue as many animals as possible.

We were moved by the devastation caused by the oil spill, and we knew we had to do something to help. Our Forged by the Ocean bangle, a piece that not only celebrates the beauty of the ocean but also supports the clean-up and subsequent preservation of the island's delicate ecosystem together with the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation.

The Forged by the Ocean bangle is a symbol of hope and resilience in the face of tragedy. It represents our commitment to protecting the natural world and preserving it for future generations.

The road to recovery will be long and challenging, but together, we can ensure that the ocean and all its inhabitants will continue to thrive for years to come.

Join us as we explore the world of the pangolin, a precious but little-known creature whose survival is threatened by illegal wildlife trade. Discover how our Pangolin Collection supports the Tikki Hywood Foundation's efforts to protect and conserve these incredible animals for future generations.

It's a beautiful morning in Zimbabwe as the sun slowly rises, painting the sky with hues of orange and pink. The air is crisp and fresh, carrying the scent of eucalyptus and other wildflowers. The sound of birds singing and chirping fills the air, and the gentle rustling of leaves can be heard in the light breeze. In the distance, you hear the sounds of a nearby river or stream, providing a soothing background to the serene landscape. The warm, golden sunlight slowly spreads across the land, illuminating the trees, grasses, and wildlife, creating a magical atmosphere.

You can smell the hot tea being brewed in the kitchen, and you can hear her sweet voice fill the home as she sings the song of her people. She is a woman, the backbone of the community, her family and society. She is Vakadzi, the shona word for woman.

She works hard and is dedicated but she knows that there are struggles she will face if she goes alone. She thinks about the importance of community, about the values that are deeply ingrained into her culture. She will share these values with you, over picnics outside in the Zimbabwean spring, and teas enjoyed in the early evening on a summer's day. She will tell you stories of her culture, her family and her people as she prepares family meals you will enjoy with her as you sit in your dining room overlooking a marvellous landscape of wildlife.

One of those stories will be about the importance of Vakadzi, and how coming together is a symbol of the strength and resilience of women. Her soft voice will take you through an everlasting journey of vibrant colours, sweet smells and beautiful people.

The Vakadzi Collection was created to honour and empower the women, and a portion of the proceeds from this collection goes to the St Joseph's School to build accommodation on their grounds.

Vakadzi is not just a word, but a spirit that lives within every woman. It's a celebration of the beauty, power, and strength of women everywhere, and a reminder that we are all capable of great things.

As you travel through the Amboseli National Park on safari, the landscape around you is a tapestry of greens and golds. The sun beats down on the National Park, casting long shadows and highlighting the grasses and trees.

You journey through the park, you hear stories of the great elephant, Craig. He's a Super Tusker, with massive ivory tusks that almost reach the ground. His size and strength are legendary, and he's become a symbol of power and resilience in the face of adversity.

As you move further into the reserve, your guide points out various species of wildlife, from graceful giraffes to nimble antelopes. Suddenly, in the distance, you catch a glimpse of something massive and grey moving through the tall grasses. It's Craig, a magnificent elephant with tusks so large they nearly touch the ground. Your heart skips a beat as you realise the magnitude of this majestic creature. The Land Rover slows down as you approach, giving you a chance to really take in the sight of him. His ears flap in the breeze, and his tusks gleam in the sunlight. But it's the distinctive tear in his ear that sets him apart and captures your attention.

Craig's story is one of survival and perseverance.He is one of only a few Super Tuskers left in the world, a rare and endangered breed of elephant with tusks that weigh over 100 pounds each. He's a living legend in the Amboseli National Park, and his distinctive ear, torn from years of fighting off predators and other males, makes him easily recognizable. His presence in the park is a reminder of the importance of protecting and conserving these magnificent creatures.

It's this spirit of resilience that inspired us to create the TUSK Collection, a jewellery line that celebrates the beauty of the Super Tuskers and supports their conservation. A portion of the proceeds from this collection goes to the Tusk Trust and the Big Life Foundation, organisations dedicated to protecting elephants and their habitats.

Our collection features the distinctive tear in the ear, just like Craig's, and is a symbol of our commitment to preserving these magnificent creatures and their habitat. We honour the legacy of Craig and his fellow Super Tuskers. We celebrate their strength and beauty, and we work to ensure that they continue to roam the African savannahs for generations to come.

Embark on an adventure with us as we explore the world of the pangolin, and our ground-breaking collection in creating awareness for these precious but little known creatures.

As the sun slowly rises over the African savannah, a pangolin stirs in its burrow, its sensitive nose catching the scent of the new day. The air is crisp and fresh, carrying the scent of acacias and grasses.

The pangolin emerges from its burrow, blinking in the morning light. The grasses around it shimmer with dew, and the distant roar of a lion reminds the pangolin to stay alert.

This precious creature sets out on its daily quest for food, using its powerful sense of smell to guide it through the grasses. The air is filled with the sounds of birdsong and the buzzing of insects. It moves carefully, it's tough, armoured scales protecting it from thorns and sharp rocks.

The day wears on, the sun beats down, warming the savannah and casting long shadows. This remarkable animal continues to search for ants and termites, digging with its powerful front claws and slurping up the tiny insects with its sticky tongue.

As the sun sets and the pangolin retreats to its burrow, curling up tightly and using its scales as a shield against the cool night air, the distant call of a hyena serves as a reminder that danger lurks even in the darkness. It underscores the critical need to protect these remarkable creatures and their habitats.

We share this commitment to protecting and conserving the pangolin. Through our partnership with the Tikki Hywood Foundation, we support on-the-ground efforts to rescue and rehabilitate pangolins that have been injured or confiscated from the illegal wildlife trade. Our Pangolin Collection is not only ground-breaking in creating awareness for these precious but little-known creatures, but it also raises much-needed funds for their protection and conservation. By joining forces with the Tikki Hywood Foundation, we can make a real difference in the lives of pangolins and their future survival. The plight of the pangolin is a cause dear to our hearts, and we are honoured to play a part in preserving these incredible creatures for future generations.
