SOHAVI is a London-based contemporary jewellery brand shaped by heritage, symbolism and the meaning we find in everyday rituals — founded by Nicci Dhamu, a fellow yoga teacher. Ancient symbols, mantra-inspired designs and gemstone mala beads, finely crafted, hallmarked, and made to be layered and worn every day.
The practice doesn’t end at the mat, and most teachers carry something that says so — mala beads on the wrist before meditation, a talisman whose story they actually know. Small anchors of intention that travel through a working day.
Yoga, an ancient Indian practice, has nourished generations — its creative kundalini energy supporting wellbeing far beyond the mat. Jewellery holds feeling the same way: love, purpose, courage and faith. SOHAVI’s ancient symbols carry both, as relevant now as they have ever been.
Whoever wears it should know its story.
SOHAVI’s founder, Nicci Dhamu, is a fellow yoga teacher — and the pieces are designed the way a teacher would design them: as personal reminders of what matters. A meaningful ancient symbol, a mantra-inspired design, a gemstone mala to accompany a meditation practice — each made to be layered and worn every day, with the cultural story behind the piece told alongside it.
Sterling silver and 18K gold vermeil, UK assay hallmarked, with prices from £85 — worn in SOHAVI’s own campaigns by Fearne Cotton, Belinda Carlisle and Hugo Woddis.

Symbolic jewellery is everywhere now — and the difference between decoration and meaning is whether the wearer can tell the story. Teachers can, and students notice. A founder who teaches yoga writes those stories into every piece, which is exactly where this category is heading: provenance, craft and cultural respect.
And the occasions are already part of a teaching life — the milestone birthday, the end of a training, the retreat gift that means something. SOHAVI is shown here as a Premium partner because the craft is verifiable — UK assay hallmarked, NAJ member — and because the founder is one of YogaPros’ own.
