DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT
ROBERTO COIN ’ S
signature hidden ruby
T he ruby has always been enveloped in a legendary aura, and due to its exceptional quality of maintaining beauty throughout time it is considered eternal, like true love. According to an ancient belief, wearing a ruby close to the skin promoted long life, health, and happiness, and even today it is believed to possess these magic powers, including the extraordinary ability of giving peace. In 1996, Roberto Coin started signing his jewels by setting a small ruby hidden on the inside of each piece, allowing the distinguished gem to kiss the skin. Since then, this tradition has become the exclusive signature of every jewel by Roberto Coin, dedicated as a secret gift of good wishes to every woman lucky enough to wear one of his exclusive creations. WITH EACH BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF ROBERTO COIN JEWELRY, FINDING THE RUBY IS USUALLY THE FIRST TASK AT HAND.
“FASHION IS CHANGEABLE. IT IS WHIMSICAL. STYLE IS NOT. STYLE IS PART OF US, OF OUR LIFE, IN EVERY MOMENT AND EVERY EXPRESSION.” ~ Roberto Coin
