Characterised by intricate twisted detailing, diamond decoration and the famous Roberto Coin flower motif, the Roberto Coin Venetian Princess jewellery collection is a one a kind in the Italian artisan’s family of fine diamond jewellery. Within each pieces hides a complex structure made of twisted wire, visible only to those that wear then. This romantic treasure is a reminder of Venice, the famous “Floating City” which is renowned for its own legends and secrets.
Born in 1996, the Roberto Coin jewellery brand takes its name from the founder, a gentlemen who swapped his successful career as a hotelier to create one of the world’s most prosperous Italian jewellers. His aim with each collection is to tell a story through precious jewels, taking ethically sourced diamonds and coloured gemstones like jade, malachite, mother of pearl and lapis lazuli and transform them into works of art. Roberto Coin brings to life all its fine jewellery collection in the city of Vicenza, otherwise known as the City of Gold for its admiration in the jewellery making world. The city is also home to much inspiration for the Roberto Coin jewellery designs which bring to life Italian folklore, legends and romantic tales of love.
The Roberto Coin Venetian Princess jewellery collection continues this legacy, this time taking inspiration from the city of Venice. The combination of 18ct gold and brilliant cut diamonds evokes the narrow alleyways of Venice at night, illuminated only by the reflection of lanterns on the water. The unusual, twisted metal detailing is also a nod to the city’s architecture and is purposely subtle for only the wearer’s enjoyment to evoke Venice’s abundance of hidden secrets. Unique and eclectic, these stunning jewels offer something for everybody with both classic and contemporary styles available. Their common feature is that of the flower motif, which like blossoms and buds, will transform every woman who wears them into a true princess.
The Roberto Coin Venetian Princess jewellery collection recently introduced a selection of new coloured gemstone pieces inspired by the same colours and patterned found around the city of Venice. The royal shades of lapis lazuli are charged with bright blue tones for an unmissable look while the malachite pieces reveal the deep, enchanting shades of the forest. The contrasting shades of these coloured gemstones alongside the rose gold and yellow gold metals are found everywhere in Venice, in the stiped patterns of the mooring poles in the lagoon, the fabrics of the cafés and in the Murano chandeliers that can be glimpsed on the ceilings of the noble palaces.
Another new addition to the Roberto Coin Venetian Princess collection, launched just last Christmas, is their range of Venetian Princess Zodiac jewellery. The necklaces are designed to describe each Zodiac sign in a unique way, purposely evoking the nature of the person assigned to it. Crafted from 18ct gold, they feature the Zodiac sign engraved on the round medallion, a symbol belonging to the wearer’s soul which is then decorated in an array of white diamonds. On the reverse of the pendant, the iconic flower motif appears allowing you to wear the Roberto Coin Venetian Princess Zodiac necklaces in a multitude of ways.
