Roberto Coin: Crafting Jewelry with Heart, History & Hidden Rubies
When style, story, and fine craftsmanship converge, you arrive at Roberto Coin. Founded in Italy with passion and purpose, Roberto Coin is more than a jewelry label—it’s a legacy of art, emotion, and detail. As we host our Trunk Show, it's the perfect moment to dive into the world behind each piece and what makes this collection so special to us at Hauser’s.
A Journey in Ruby & Gold
Roberto Coin traces its roots to Vicenza, Italy, often called the “City of Gold” for its centuries-long association with jewelry and metalsmithing. Though the founder, Roberto himself, had been designing jewelry for years, he officially launched the brand under his name in 1996—giving shape to his vision of emotionally resonant, artisan-crafted jewelry.
Every Roberto Coin creation carries the brand’s signature: a hidden ruby set on the inside of the piece, pressed gently against the skin. This discreet ruby is more than decoration—it’s a symbol of love, protection, and good fortune, inspired by myth and bound to the wearer’s story.
Collections Worth Exploring
Roberto Coin’s portfolio spans many collections, each with a narrative and distinct style. A few standouts:
-
Tiny Treasures — Delicate, symbolic pendants and charms in 18K gold and diamonds, perfect for layering or gifting.
-
Designer Gold & Chains — Sculptural, modern interpretations of gold jewelry, often with textured finishes and innovative silhouettes.
-
Diamond by the Inch — Elegant necklaces and bracelets featuring diamond stations spaced along fine chains—a minimalist favorite that can be worn alone or layered.
-
Venetian Princess / Love in Verona / Floral Motifs — Romantic collections that use floral and architectural motifs, inspired by Venetian palaces and Italian heritage.
Each collection balances timeless structure with emotional storytelling—a hallmark of the brand.
Inspiration & Styling Notes
Because each Roberto Coin piece is crafted with intention, the styling possibilities are rich:
-
Pair a Tiny Treasure pendant with your favorite chain to tell a personal story or mark a special date.
-
Use a Diamond by the Inch necklace layered with a longer drop pendant for subtle sophistication.
-
Choose a textured gold cuff from the Designer Gold line to complement autumn’s rich fabrics—leather, tweed, wool—and let it contrast beautifully with polished metals.
These pieces are elegant enough for evening wear but also refined for day-to-day layering. Their tactile sense—soft curves, subtle rubies, fine finish—makes them feel as good as they look.
