JEWELLERY GUIDES

At SoBi & co, we believe jewellery is more than decoration, it’s history, symbolism, and personal meaning woven into every piece. To help you find treasures that truly resonate, we’ve created our Jewellery Guides, exploring both gemstones and eras.

Whether you want to uncover the story behind a diamond, learn why emeralds symbolise love and renewal, or delve into the craftsmanship of Art Deco or Victorian design, this is your place to discover more.
