Pandora hosts high tea to celebrate Mother's Day

Pandora, the global jewelry brand noted for designs of meaningful personal expression, ushered in the spirit of Mother’s Day with an intimate high tea, done in partnership with Lusso, the elegant dining destination founded by the late Chef Margarita Forés.

Held ahead of Mother’s Day, the gathering celebrated the strength, love, and enduring presence of mothers, honoring both those who raised us and those who are now mothers themselves.

Guests were welcomed by a sweet floral-theme setup, a curated display of Pandora’s Mother’s Day collection. The high tea offered special experiences such as jewelry box personalization and mirror photo moments to capture the afternoon’s memories.

Tricie Legarda, Brand Head of Pandora Philippines, welcomed the gathering and spoke of the collaboration between Pandora and Lusso. She spoke of how the brand’s ongoing BE LOVE campaign shines a light on the quiet yet powerful ways mothers express their love. She also introduced one of the season’s most meaningful motifs: the infinity symbol — a reflection of bonds that are unbreakable and everlasting.

Chef Valery Anthony of Lusso said that the inspiration for the curated high tea experience came from a memorable trip to Hong Kong earlier this year, which she took with the late Chef Margarita Forés — a mentor and mother figure to many in the culinary community. The menu pays subtle tribute to her enduring influence and spirit.
