Our gold plated silver jewellery is handmade by family-run workshops and artisans in Italy and Turkey. Each piece is unique.
We only make our jewellery in small batches and encourage our customers to only purchase what sparks joy, as to avoid unnecessary returns. Nothing we make is mass produced.
Our jewellery and products are designed in-house at Soru HQ, based on a quiet leafy street in Solihull, UK.
We use natural gemstones and baroque pearls within our gold plated silver collection which may contain internal inclusions, irregular edges, uneven surfaces and variations in the colours. No two gems are the same, adding to the beauty and uniqueness of each individual gem.
If you wish to exchange your item for a different shape or colour, please get in touch at customercare@sorujewellery.com. Any return postage costs would be subject to charge. Item availability for exchange will depend on the stock we have remaining.
Silver / 18ct Gold / Gold Vermeil
Use a soft lint free cloth to keep your jewellery looking shiny and tarnish-free.
Store your Soru purchases in a dark, cool and dry place within the box provided. This will reduce tarnishing, scratching and tangling.
When transporting your jewellery, ensure it is kept within a box so no external pressures is accidentally applied that could bend the metal.
Remove jewellery while in water and avoid spraying perfume or applying creams where your jewellery will have contact.
Avoid extreme temperatures, humidity and sunlight. Any contact with perfumes, cosmetics and chemicals will cause discolouration.
Gemstones
Gemstones should never be worn around hot water, harsh chemicals or cleaners.
You can clean most gemstones with a soft, damp cloth after wearing. Very porous stones such as turquoise and emeralds should be cleaned using an untreated, dry, soft cloth only. Do not use tissue paper or paper towels to clean as they can cause scratching.

So beautiful
My jewellery us platinum or white gold, but I couldn't resist these! These earrings are simply stunning, reminding me of Byzantine jewellery, frescoes in Hagia Sofia, Christian orthodox churches. They are so intricate and I love the rotating parts. People notice them, my daughter showed her friends at school, my colleagues at work loved them, and my Anglo-Sicilian co-worker Alfredo noticed them straight away. They felt a bit heavy at first, but this is just because most of my earrings are studs. Despite being 'mini' they are quite big (not complaining!). Love them. I guess, id stil love to see the white gold or silver with turquoise and pearls.
Gorgeous earrings
These earrings are very detailed and a lovely size. They’re not heavy and I received lots of compliments about them . I really do love them

So glad I bought these stunning earrings
I had watched the pearl version of the mini Santina earrings for some time when I was sent a 20% discount offer and decided to take the plunge. I know I am going to enjoy wearing these earrins as they are beautifully made and will go with anything. This is my third pair of Soru earrings and each piece is a work of art. I hope they will become family heirlooms and will be passed down through the generations.
