MOTHER'S DAY 2025: CELEBRATING MOTHERHOOD IN ALL ITS BEAUTIFUL FORMS
This Mother's Day, we wanted to celebrate the beauty, tenderness, and complexity of motherhood in a way that felt real, heartfelt, and true to the spirit of RUUSK. We recently gathered a group of our beautiful RUUSK mamas and their families for a special photoshoot and interview—a morning filled with laughter, playful chaos, tender tears, and quiet moments of connection. The day unfolded exactly as we had hoped: naturally, imperfectly, and full of heart. Children running underfoot, arms wrapped tightly around mothers, and small voices filling the air with giggles. It was a vivid reflection of the many layers of motherhood — the joy, the exhaustion, the pride, the fierce love. As one mama so beautifully put it, "Motherhood is discovering that you didn’t think you could love like you do… like your heart just wants to explode. Just love, just loving unbelievably." Through every candid moment, we were reminded that motherhood is vast and multi-faceted. It's the quiet sacrifices made daily, the deep and unspoken bonds, and the endless acts of love that often go unseen. It's a journey that transforms and shapes not just families, but the very fabric of who we are. "Motherhood is feeling insurmountable challenge but also feeling the depths of love all at the same time." We also took time to reflect on the incredible women who raised us — the ones who showed us how to love, how to be brave, and how to meet the world with open hearts. When asked what first comes to mind when thinking of their mums, our RUUSK mamas shared: "Her smile, she is just pure joy in this world.""She’s curious.""She’s brave.""She’s playful.""She’s unconditionally loving.""She’s my best friend.""She’s a superhero." What surprised many about motherhood is just how deeply the connection can be felt, not only emotionally, but physically. As one of our mamas reflected, "The bond between a mother and child is not just from the heart, it is also a physical bond. You can feel that; you can feel their pain, and you can feel their joy." It was an absolute honour to witness and capture the incredible women who entrust us with their most precious heirlooms. Watching their stories unfold in real time was a profound reminder of why we do what we do — creating pieces that carry love, legacy, and meaning across generations. This Mother's Day, we invite you to celebrate motherhood in all its forms — whether you're honouring your own mother, a mother figure, your journey into motherhood, or the women who have nurtured you in ways both big and small. From all of us at RUUSK, thank you for allowing us to be part of your stories. We celebrate you, we honour you, and we are endlessly inspired by you.

AN EVENING OF LOVE & CELEBRATION: WITH GREAT LOVE SHOWCASE
Surrounded by dear friends and cherished clients, we gathered in our Sydney CBD studio for a truly special evening—one dedicated to celebrating love in all its forms and unveiling our With Great Love Collection in person. From the moment our guests arrived, the studio was filled with warmth, conversation, and the shared joy of reconnecting. Seeing our long-time clients—many of whom have been part of RUUSK’s journey for years—experience the new collection up close was incredibly meaningful. These are the very women who inspire what we create, and to share this moment with them felt like the perfect way to honour this collection’s heart and intention. As golden hour cast its glow, guests admired the delicate details of our With Great Love necklaces, tried on pieces that resonated with their own stories, and toasted to love, connection, and the beauty of meaningful heirlooms. To everyone who joined us—thank you. Your presence, stories, and shared love for what we do mean the world. We hope this collection becomes a part of your story, carried close as a reminder of all the love that shapes your life. With Great Love, always.

RUUSK IN RESIDENCE: SHOWCASE APPOINTMENTS
We are thrilled to share the highlights from our recent RUUSK In Residence Showcase Appointments. It was a pleasure meeting members of our beautiful RUUSK community in person, and even more of a joy to hear your visions and be able to help discuss options to craft your dream pieces. Held at the charming Maido Cafe with our designer and founder Tania, our inaugural showcase was set in an inspiring environment that perfectly complemented our mission of personalised craftsmanship. Read on to explore the special moments from this weekend, featuring some beautiful insights from Tania herself. "It's always just a joy to be able to meet in person and have a one-on-one ring play! I love finding out more about your stories and visions for your special pieces - working with you to bring your personalised modern heirlooms to life. There's something magical about working together to create a piece that's truly yours." - Tania During the RUUSK In Residence Showcase Appointments, customers enjoy a truly immersive and personalised experience. Each appointment begins with the opportunity to try on various styles that they have adored online, allowing them to see and feel them in person. They can compare these pieces next to their cherished everyday jewellery, to be able to explore pieces that complement their existing collection. The process involves exploring every detail, from different widths and thicknesses to metal and stone colours and setting options. It was an opportunity to discuss every nuance and answer any questions that may have been on their minds, and we were overjoyed that we could assist in this exciting process of dreaming up their perfect RUUSK piece. "Being able to showcase both our classic shapes along with some of our newest pieces was such a pleasure. It brings me great joy to see the myriad of ways my designs can be adopted into your own meaningful jewellery collection and personalised to reflect your own unique style." - Tania LAUNCHING STUDIO APPOINTMENTS Due to high demand and the success of our RUUSK In Residence Showcase over the weekend, we are beyond excited to announce the launch of our limited Studio Appointments.
