Highlights from Baselworld 2018 - Roberto Coin's Magical Signature Jewellery Pieces.

I love an art, I love a story and I love an art which tells a story. It is the story that connects souls, connects hearts and connects minds. The art cannot be created without its story. Today's story is about Robert Coin and his hauteur jollier and his magical signature BaselWorld collections. Roberto Coin name suggests to moments of joy and excitement, a brand that means stylistic originality and design in any language, which remains with you to discover in all of its many expressions. The quality of applying, 18ct gold, rubies, and the use of garnet and coloured sapphire plays a huge impact on Roberto Coin jewellery. The thought of discovering a treasure and being intrigued by the next stages of that treasure is just mesmerising. Visiting BaselWorld this year has unveiled the treasures of Roberto Coin's magical signature jewellery pieces. The pieces of jewellery which were otherworldly which were wild, stylistic, which were full of joy and excitement, original and futuristic.

“From the first steps that I took in this amazing field, I’ve always wanted Roberto Coin to be an eccentric entity, born in an unusual way and definitely unlike anyone else in both personality and objective. As a matter of fact, it was already clear to me in 1996 that this brand would represent diversity, and I knew that it was exactly this diversity that would become the fundamental characteristic of its identity. It has never been my goal to be recognized through the use of my designs with similar, thematic characteristics that make them recognizable at first glance; that would have been too easy. Through the tireless production of new designs, our mission is to create something that inspires, that surprises and that most of all… is never boring. The Roberto Coin brand wants to make the diverse essential. Many others prefer to propose the same jewel to different women; I rather propose a different one to each. I do want to give every woman the opportunity and freedom to choose to be herself, to be unique. Even the idea of the ruby has dual significance – the signature and romantic symbol is also a means to identify the jewel as belonging to the brand.The ruby is the anchor that visibly ties all of my jewels to the same origin and that also guarantees maximum aesthetic freedom. Brands tend to be iconic only when they are defined by a few recognizable designs. In my opinion, this means limiting creativity, which is the expression of freedom par excellence. Not being recognizable at first glance has given me the liberty to create, and to be,something innovative and unique. Even today, after 20 years, I can confirm that my vision is the same as when I began, a vision that guarantees a more dynamic and curious future and,above all, a future capable of surprising again and again.” - Roberto Coin.

In 1996 Roberto Coin has launched his own brand back in Italy after over 20 years abroad. His visit to Vicenza, the renowned city of gold, for the first time Roberto Coin encountered the jewellery world and recognized the unique allure and elegance a jewel can signify. This moment meant the very beginning of his new adventure in creativity and his entrance into the world of jewellery. His bright and striking imagination took form through the hands of the historical Italian artisans, who brought it to life through their discerning skills, by always creating unique pieces of art. Today the brand distributes to 60 countries with the success on their side. People consider his jewels as authentic and symbolic new enigmas of elegance. His aim to add inimitability to every woman and avoid a standardised style by creating over 600 new models every year, like dedicating a different jewel to each woman’s individuality is unrepeatable. Roberto Coin launches about 5 different collections each year, collections that work to satisfy market's countless number of demands. The number of collections that were unveiled at Basel World Midnight In Paris, Animalier Collection, Roman Barocco, Sauvage Prive, Princes's Flower Collection and Haute Couture & Limited Edition Collections and other;

Roberto Coin aims to find new sources of inspiration in the world’s diversities. Every one of his conceptions is the result of an exciting voyage between multi-ethnic cultures and influences, through nature, well-balanced between the past and the future. Each of his jewels tells a different story, a story that shrouds it in the unique appeal of distinctiveness and style identity. The company strongly pursues a mission which to offer every woman an original piece of jewellery, far from the ordinary, that promotes the aesthetic and spiritual qualities that make her who she is, unique and distinct. Roberto Coin has brought a new collection called The Anemailer at the Basel World which has opened a new chapter in the creative universe of Roberto Coin.

The Animallier collection has been the centrepiece of the show at Basel World for me. Each aspect of animal life has been researched and studied carefully so that the jewels in the Animalier collection become magnificent symbols of nature’s perfection. Little artistic sculptures, masterfully created by the hands of Italian craftsman were showcased. Over the years, imaginary creatures have joined the animals of the real world in the collection. Animals inspired by oriental legends or by children’s fables have made the collection a veritable animal kingdom wrapped in a magical charm with lots of stories to tell.
