The word “Siempre,” which means “always” in Spanish, held a special place in Anna’s heart. To her, it symbolized the profound aroha (love) she felt for life, her numerous friends, and her cherished family. Anna would often remind us, “Remember how much you are loved… siempre.”
As the Dalai Lama once wisely stated, “Practice every possible tenderness,” a quote that deeply resonated with Anna during her visit to Mcleod Ganj, Dharmashala, India, to attend his teachings. Anna dedicated her life to living by this philosophy, and Zoe, Morgan, and Ruth are determined to ensure that this spirit of “always” lives on.

The love and tenderness that Anna consistently displayed throughout her lifetime were reciprocated in countless ways, especially during her passing. Her children, Zoe, Morgan, and Ruth, feel profoundly privileged to have witnessed and experienced the essence of this sentiment.
Siempre Aroha is adorned with hearts, intricate detailing, and glistening stones. Each piece in this collection has been meticulously designed to bring forth beauty and embrace the entirety of life, whether it’s the simplicity of daily routines, the exuberance of celebrations, moments of tranquillity, or heartfelt connections.

Each gemstone in the collection has been carefully chosen for both its aesthetic appeal and its deep significance. White Zircon is included for its reputed powers of protection, healing, and purification. Green Amethyst, known for its soothing vibrations and stress-relief properties, is another integral part of the collection, with its ability to clear negative emotions. Our personal favourite, Aquamarine, not only adds visual appeal but also represents tranquillity, clarity, and improved communication. Finally, the vibrant deep green Chrome Diopside serves as a reminder of our connection to nature, symbolizing the cycles of life, fertility, growth, and the qualities of freshness and harmony.
