Its a lighthearted sojourn into the weekend and as we approach Valentines Day we discuss wonderful love celebrations and traditions from around the world.

Valentines Day is celebrated with fond regard  with the exchange of cards, flowers and chocolates but Vashi Diamonds have dug a little deeper to see how this special day is celebrated in other nations.

Vashi.com specialise in engagement and wedding rings, and wanted to run a campaign which would help to spread a little love.

After the success of the  “More than just a word: Untranslatable words of love from around the world” project they have joined up with another incredible artist to capture Valentines Day.

The Brand worked with artist Marie Muravski who creates illustrations for children’s books, apps, websites, short stories, nursery rhymes, games, etc.

She studied a graphic design in Russia and continued a study in the Czech Republic, and since then has freelanced with publishers from all around the world.

Vashi commissioned her to illustrate love celebrations from around the world – everything from the Chinese festival of Qixi to Argentina’s ‘Sweetness Week’.
