The Most Iconic Women Who Made Pearls Eternal : Sohvii Tribute to Iconic Elegance

Audrey Hepburn was far more than an actress; she became the global emblem of understated elegance during a time when glamour was often defined by extravagance. Her image, immortalised in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, with layered pearls framing her delicate posture, transformed the world’s perception of refined beauty.

Her effortless blend of minimalism and pearls set a global standard for understated sophistication - a style philosophy Sohvii celebrates with every design.

In the complex corridors of 1960s America, amidst political upheaval and global change, Jackie Kennedy stood as a pillar of poise. Her triple-strand pearl necklace became more than an accessory — it became a symbol of dignity, intellect, and resilience.

Jackie, often described as "Camelot’s Queen," showed the world that femininity and strength coexist. At Sohvii, her quiet authority inspires us — reminding us that pearls are not merely historical; they are woven into the fabric of modern leadership.

Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel altered the course of fashion history — rejecting corsets, rewriting silhouettes, and most importantly, reclaiming pearls for every woman, not just the aristocracy. Her layered pearls, worn with ease and confidence, were a quiet rebellion — a reminder that beauty also belongs to those who dare.
At Sohvii, we admire Chanel’s legacy — that pearls are not restricted by occasion or lineage. They belong to the woman who writes her own history, every day.

In the storied halls of British royalty, few figures captured the world’s heart like Princess Diana. She redefined royal elegance, her pearl chokers and sculptural earrings were as much a part of her public persona as her humanitarian work.

Diana's pearls told a story of quiet rebellion and compassion, they softened the crown, humanised the monarchy, and inspired generations. At Sohvii, we honour her belief that beauty, at its best, reflects empathy.

Across a reign that spanned over seven decades.. longer than any British monarch in history - Queen Elizabeth II remained determined, her pearls constant companions through wars, jubilees, and transformations.

More than a royal adornment, her pearls became symbols of tradition, stability, and the extraordinary endurance of a woman committed to duty. At Sohvii, we pay homage to her legacy, crafting pearls that reflect grace not just in appearance, but in life's quiet moments of resilience.

For millennia, India has revered pearls.. not merely as jewels, but as symbols of wisdom, purity, and divine femininity. Across kingdoms and eras, India's most remarkable women adorned themselves with pearls, each carrying their own legacy of leadership, beauty, and quiet strength.

Named among Vogue’s most beautiful women of the century, Maharani Gayatri Devi of Jaipur stood as the epitome of regal poise and progressive thought. Her love for layered pearls, worn with chiffons and effortless grace, defined Indian royalty’s meeting point with modern elegance.

Sohvii’s Classic Mala designs are deeply inspired by her legacy — pearls that feel both timeless and strikingly relevant, crafted for the woman who leads with quiet strength.

Known as “The Indian Wallis Simpson,” Princess Sita Devi commanded attention with her unprecedented collection of jewels & pearls among them. Her life, woven between Baroda’s palaces and European high society, reflects a legacy of bold elegance, unafraid of grandeur.

We admire her unapologetic confidence - a reminder that pearls, like women, can be both soft and powerful, refined yet formidable.

Pearls have journeyed through history, from ancient civilisations to royal courts, from artistic revolutions to quiet modern expressions of identity. They have adorned women who led, changed, and inspired the world.

At Sohvii, we carry this history with deep respect while crafting cultured freshwater pearls that are not just jewellery, but a continuation of the stories women have told for centuries

Every pearl chosen, every design crafted at Sohvii is a quiet homage to the women who shaped history and to the woman who wears them today.

Because elegance, like legacy, lives not in grandeur alone, but in grace, in character, in the quiet confidence of those who know their worth.
