During a lunchtime walk in Istanbul, I came across this beautifully delicate, and the tiniest rose, I have ever seen. It served as a backdrop to highlight the beauty of our products.

Flowers have a language of their own, and roses always mean love. While red roses are for passion, pink for liking, yellow for friendship, blue roses have always been very unique and since the colour blue is associated with royalty, the blue rose symbolises regal majesty and splendour.

I have had my love affair with roses, which started before I could even remember. When I was a little child, I was lucky to grow up in the midst of the untamed beauty of nature. I still remember vividly the rose tree in our garden, and how almost mystical its shape was, the elegant shape of an opening bud and the intoxicating perfume of a blossom.
