Our Story
Born out of vision, perseverance, and the strength of family, Sona Gold & Diamonds traces its origins back to 1984, when Mr. K.V. Mohanan and Mrs. Sona Mohanan opened the first store in Batha, Riyadh.
It wasn’t just about selling jewellery for them, it was about giving the Indian community abroad a piece of home, jewellery that carried emotions, memories, and meaning. Named after Mrs. Sona Mohanan — whose name means “gold” — the brand carries her warmth, grace, and belief that jewellery should do more than be adorned - every piece should tell a story of trust and belonging.
The Early Spark
The first Sona store opened its doors in Batha, Riyadh, marking the beginning of a journey rooted in craftsmanship and trust. The early years were defined by personalised creations — customised jewellery, bangles, and chains. Pieces that spoke directly to the hearts of Indian families living abroad. Each design carried a touch of home and a reminder of tradition, creating bonds that lasted far beyond the purchase.
A legacy of Evolution
Over the decades, Sona Gold & Diamonds has evolved with time, yet its heart remains unchanged. The brand expanded into the wholesale market with a wide variety of chain collections, growing its footprint and deepening its legacy.
As the world moved online, Sona embraced the digital era, bringing its values of trust and accessibility to new generations, while preserving the sincerity that defined its early years.
Craftsmanship That Endures
For over four decades, Sona has blended traditional artistry with modern craftsmanship. While techniques and designs have evolved, the family-led approach to craftsmanship remains forever. Each creation is a reflection of the brand’s founding philosophy — purity without compromise, artistry without excess, and service without conditions.
Behind every design is not just a craftsman — but a custodian of trust, ensuring that the same standards set in 1984 continue to shine today.
A Promise That Lasts Forever
At its heart, Sona Gold & Diamonds is still a family — built by one, run with one, and trusted by thousands who’ve made it part of theirs. The brand’s journey has never been just about jewellery; it’s about the people it connects, the memories it carries, and the legacy it continues to honour.
Guided by the values of trust, purity, and service, Sona stands today as a reminder that true luxury isn’t about grandeur — it’s about belonging. Because when jewellery feels like family, it lasts forever.
