Rare and Rapturous Pieces by Roberto

Posted at 3:40:48 AM in Roberto Coin (8)

 

Jewelry connoisseurs will never run out of unique pieces from Roberto Coin’s luxury jewelry collections. The 17-year-old brand is the top jewelry designer and manufacturer in Italy, and third in the international scene. For an industry player that is relatively so young, the Roberto Coin’s success in jewelry making is indeed astounding. This is not surprising though, especially when you factor in its eponymous owner’s stellar experience in jewelry production for prominent fine jewelry icons since 1977. Roberto Coin, the man, is an outstanding businessman. But more than that, he is a creative artist with unquenchable passion for what he does. He comes up with most ordinary, even creepy, bits of reality and turn them to magical works of art. One of his latest pieces is the 7-inch Horse Diamond and White Enamel Bangle, which shows a horse figure masterfully fashioned from 18k gold and strapped with an enchanting diamond-studded bridle.

Serpentine Charm

Posted at 4:13:38 AM in Roberto Coin (8)

 

The Centurion Jewelry Show is a prestigious gathering of jewelry designers and retailers. Jewel makers show off their fine pieces of gems and precious metals, while retailers in attendance vote for their favorite pieces in eleven categories. This year, the affair was held in Scottsdale, Arizona where many big and glittery names were in attendance. Two designers came up on top for the Diamond Fashion category: Sierra and – you guessed it – Roberto Coin. The number one high-end brand of Italian jewelry, Roberto Coin amazed every pair of eyes with its Egyptian-inspired cobra bracelet. The armband is in the form of a twisting snake made of white and black diamond plus green garnet.  The bejewelled scales produces such lifelike rendition of the serpent that it instantly sends tingles down your spine. Then just as quickly, it makes you think of the glamorous Cleopatra. For more pieces from the award-winning designer, visit Shreve & Co. at Palo Alto – authorized retailer for Roberto Coin.

Fashionable and Timeless

Posted at 12:00:00 AM in Roberto Coin (8)

 

The Egyptian pyramids are timeless architecture. The sheer brilliance and will to put up structures of such magnitude and perfection are human marvels. The ancient Egyptians brought to our world a civilization that would inspire millions. One brand that takes off from the Egyptian aesthetics is Roberto Coin. Most collections from Roberto Coin have ruby and rubellite. This stems from the ancient Egyptian belief that when ruby touches the skin, it grants the wearer good fortunes, good health and happiness. Roberto Coin is no stranger to good fortune, himself. As his brand became a success after just six years in the industry since it was introduced in 1996. Founded in Vicenza, Italy in 1977, the brand has quickly risen to be a high-end producer of Italian jewelry and watches. This success wasn’t brought forth by rubies alone but with the unwavering search for beauty. For fashionable yet timeless pieces, visit Corby & Troy an authorized dealer for Roberto Coin.

The Man, The Brand, The Expression

Posted at 12:00:00 AM in Roberto Coin (8)

 

It wasn’t success that was the issue when Roberto Coin started out. He began creating around 400 to 600 models around each year in the dream to dress each woman differently. It was continuous dreaming – his words. It wasn’t success that he set out to achieve. It was all about being good at making jewelry that his final clientele would enjoy. Success was just a byproduct. But it’s all a success nonetheless. Roberto Coin approaches life as multi-faceted as possible. His love for good wine, good food, contemporary art and his involvement in other businesses are evidences to just that; being a well-rounded man that has a lot to offer to the world. He even does a little interior designing in his spare time. It is with his fascination with life that he explores the beauty and art in everything. And this is apparent in his creations. His experimentations with lights, curves, and colors brought about jewels of new expressions mixed with old sensibilities and elegance. All are tribute to life and all its beauties. This success is not a feat when it comes to Roberto Coin. It’s all a byproduct of a witty, opinionated, sophisticated, and down-to-earth individual that knows the difference between fashion and style; a creator that stays true to himself; a person who is the brand; Roberto Coin in his entire splendor. For Roberto Coin pieces, locate Shreve & Co. – authorized dealers for Roberto Coin.

Youthful Passion

Posted at 12:00:00 AM in Roberto Coin (8)

 

Fine, exquisite jewelry is not the sole territory of old brands founded by someone else’s great grandfather in a quaint Alpine mountain town. Roberto Coin, a contemporary Italian jewelry line, matches much older brands with its own internationally acclaimed earrings, bracelets, brooches, earrings, necklaces, pendants and rings. Launched in 1996, Roberto Coin quickly placed itself among the best known jewelry brands in the United States and Europe. Its strength lies in its creative excitement and happy outlook in life, like a youth looking out to a bright future. The founder, whose brand carries his name, started the company in 1977 as a production outfit for world-renowned jewelry brands. But his craft would be best expressed in its own signature brand. Roberto Coin is known for the elegant expressions of its rubies and rubellite—a take on an Ancient Egyptian belief that touching the gemstone brings good fortune. But it is no pure luck that a woman wearing a Roberto Coin feels the seduction and elegant femininity rub on her. And it is not uncommon if she finds herself between the sensation of fantasy and reality when looking at a Roberto Coin piece. Roberto Coin also offers a full line of jewelry in various precious metals and stones.
