ABOUT THIS DESIGNER


LEGEND OF THE RUBY

Roberto Coin places a ruby on the inside of the jewelry he designs. Inspired by the myths the ruby has engendered in cultures around the world, Roberto imbues each gem with the power of his own story and those that came before.

Roberto Coin has traveled the world in search of beautiful inspirations for the jewelry that bears his name. 

Still, few places inspire Coin like his native Italy. When you’re walking through Verona—or any Italian city—with Roberto Coin, you can’t expect to get anywhere fast. Every couple steps he stops to point out another beautiful thing—the design of the rosoni medallions on a building’s facade, or the red brick merlons of Castelvecchio.

Now he’s paused to admire the Ponte Pietra, a Roman bridge completed around 100 BC and still in use today. “Even when I’m by myself, I am never alone,” says Roberto. “Walking through this city is like watching a film for me, I can go back in my mind and see what it used to be in those days.”

Today, he’s in Italy’s città dell’amore, Verona, where he spoke about his process, his philosophy of life, and the origins of his new “Love in Verona” collection.

INSPIRED BY BEAUTY

As a self-styled ‘beauty explorer,’ Roberto asserts that the most important experiences of beauty cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart. That sentiment imbues every piece of jewelry he creates.
