Famous dogs and lucky pieces to ring in the new year

January 31, 2018 0 Comments

11th in the Chinese zodiac story, people born in the year of the dog are seen as loyal and honest. They are responsible and not afraid to take ownership when they've done something wrong. 2018 is the year of the Earth dog, regarded as independent and goal oriented to succeed when they put their mind to something. Dog people have a strong sense of justice and when it comes to their work, they are meticulous and responsible and committed. They are said to believe in taking their own road in a down to earth way, while being respectful to others.

Susan Sarandon - Supports MADRE, an organisation that demands rights, resources and results for women worldwide. Uma Thurman - A strong, powerful woman depicted in films like pulp fiction and kill bill. Madonna - need we say more?

We were excited to discover that Dr. Jane Goodall was born in the year of the dog and her loyalty and commitment to the chimpanzees inspires us. We have also supported the Jane Goodall Foundation, dedicated to protecting chimpanzees and inspiring people to conserve the natural world. We share her belief that everything is connected and everyone can make a difference. Brighten up for the Chinese new year with some of our lucky red and green pieces,
