A New Necklace for Mum
Carolyn Waweru began her jewellery journey creating scarf necklaces with beads that are easy to wear – just tie them in a knot or a bow at the back of your neck.

Mum-Approved Culinary Journey
On 10 and 11 May, The Hari Hong Kong is presenting a series of tasty adventures for Mother’s Day. Lucciola is serving an Italian set that moves from roast Hokkaido scallop to seven-year-aged risotto before a strawberry-white-chocolate finale. Upstairs, Zoku is featuring everything from A5 Miyazaki wagyu to a mochi cake with miso caramel and coconut tuille. And day visitors can linger over The Hari Afternoon Tea, available at The Terrace and The Lounge.

Jewels & Gems!
Since its 2021 debut, Hong Kong independent brand Splitting Colours Jewellery has shown that fine gems can be playful and within reach. Founder-designer Vincee Yip scouts rare single- and dual-tone tourmalines and other stones, then sets each find in precious metals so their natural colour gradients take centre stage. Pieces usually come in below HK$20,000, while a one-to-one service tackles special requests. Fans can discover the brand at its Causeway Bay store, invitation-only trunk shows, online shop and selected overseas stockists. Both ELLE Hong Kong and British Vogue have praised Splitting Colours for its fresh approach in the jewellery scene.
