Since 1980 we have been creating unique and inimitable collections for men and women while respecting the unique emotions that only a jewel can give.
WHO WE ARE
The history of our company has its roots in the 1980s, when an idea destined for success was born from a small company.
Solo noi was born when Giuseppe Calderaro participated with his small stand in the pop markets of sumptuous Catania in the midst of an economic boom.
Having gained a certain knowledge in the sector, he decided to marry Agata Licciardello with a strong creativity combined with a volcanic spirit which managed to lead Giuseppe towards the "New Paths of Commerce"
We are at the gates of the 90s and the two spouses will be the true protagonists of the most influential regional fairs and popular festivals of the most renowned towns in Sicily. This determined a certain notoriety and the need for stability, therefore, in 1997 the first shop opened in the city of Enna, the focal point of Sicilian culture, called "Argento Vivo", a motif coined symbolically with the intention of the authenticity and preciousness of their jewels.
Agata will create lines with an exclusive design, such as: the reliquary bust of the Patron Saint of Catania, “S. Agata”, the emblem of Sicily “La Trinacria”, the elephant in the Piazza Duomo in Catania, which holds a leitmotif of many stories set in our city.
After a couple of years, Argento Vivo, thanks to the success achieved, expands to other places in Eastern Sicily: it opens the current store in Via Etnea, is present in some shopping centers and finally also enjoys enormous success in the city of Modica, called " Homeland of chocolate”. Subsequently, the workforce expanded in the first years of the new millennium and she took over the helm of the company from her niece Agata, that is, Greta Agata Licciardello, specialized in the sector, after having obtained a certificate from a Orafi Aretini laboratory, with her determined character will grant succession to the brand and a youthful spirit to the company; therefore the individual company will become an LLC and will change its original name from Argento Vivo to SoloNoi, as it reflects the family's desire to create jewelery models conceived and designed by them.
Even today, the crown jewel of SoloNoi is the depiction of St. Agatha depicted in an exclusive collection, dedicated to the most popular Saint in the world, whose feast is considered the third most important on the globe.
