About Us
We are 100 years old
In 1920, in St.Petersburg (Russia) the company owner’s grandfather began to learn jewelry and since then a family tradition was born. It has become his life’s work, and later on the tradition was passed on to his son and nowadays to his grandson Costa Dmitriev – the founder of family jewelry business SOPHYGEMS since 1998
In the mid-90s we had to leave Russia due to troublesome times ruling there and ever since we’ve settled our workshop and jewelry salon SOPHYGEMS in Tallinn, the capital of European Estonia. And we have numerous partners and “friends in jewelry” all over the world
Gems and jewelry is our passion as well as a family business for more than 20 years. Jewelry has become an integral part of our lives and we are sure that we will pass this heritage on to our children, and by the way, we have three of them in our happy family
If you happen to visit Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, make sure to visit our jewelry boutique SOPHYGEMS and we will be pleased to meet you in person
“Working with gems and jewelry is my lifestyle. This is a hereditary business, starting with my grandfather
It is full involvement, devotion and passion for beauty
I know that almost every woman in the world wants to have a good and clear diamond in a beautiful designed jewelry. But not everyone can afford it, because the prices are artificially inflated to the skies
But times have changed and that's great!
I believe that moissanite is just such a gem that embodies all the best qualities of a good diamond; it is indistinguishable from it and at the same time is affordable to any woman
We can offer you our crystal clear moissanites and beautiful designed jewelry with them at no additional costs and intermediaries
Our mission is - to make desires affordable!”
“I thank my husband and the founder of our family business for involving me in this beautiful and creative activity
We are paving our own jewelry path, inspired by the wonderful people and things that we meet on our way
When we really like something, we want to have it done for us and our friends
Quality and affordability are our cornerstone and basic principle; we are constantly working to ensure that every woman can afford jewelry from our collection, choosing the best
All our collections are designed in Estonia with thorough preciseness.
We are proud of the quality SOPHYGEMS can offer you!”
“I welcome all the jewelers who can do something cool and outstanding
But it is also important for us that not only the rich people of this world can afford the luxurious jewelry
Our goal is to satisfy the needs and desires of a much larger number of women, albeit not possessing huge wealth.
And we take up this challenge!”
