The Roberto Coin brand was born in 1996. Its founder, with whom it shares its name, driven by the innate love for the world of art and fashion, decided to leave his successful career as a hotelier to follow his dream and face a new and passionate adventure.
His creativity took shape through the hands of the historical and most renowned Italian jewellery artisans, who brought Mr Coin’s romantic and borderless imagination to life through their skills, telling his story through jewels that truly become works of art.
“I am delighted to be back in Bahrain, a country that my family and I hold close to our hearts for the kindness and warmth of its people,” said Roberto Coin head of special projects Kevin Coin.
He was speaking exclusively to the GDN yesterday at the Bahrain Jewellery Centre (BJC) Pavilion at Jewellery Arabia 2025 currently underway at Exhibition World Bahrain (EWB), Sakhir until Saturday.
“We have been present here for many years, supported by our wonderful partners and friends at BJC, and I sincerely hope that the future will bring even more opportunities to grow together and strengthen our presence in the country.
“Roberto Coin is a special brand – above all, because it is far more than just a brand – it is a family.
“We are committed to sharing our history, culture and creativity. We are guided since the very beginning by a profound respect for ethics and sustainability.
“The traceability of our diamonds, gold and gemstones, is not just a commitment; it is a reflection of who we are.”
The floral patterns in the Roberto Coin Venetian Princess collection were inspired by the architecture of the historic palaces that line the Grand Canal in Venice, Italy.
The rhythmic shapes have been transformed into gold and gemstone jewels, which are made in his workshops in nearby Vicenza.
The latest iterations feature flower motif pendants and rings that rotate to reveal another gemstone on the reverse side.
It’s a two-in-one piece that gives the wearer options, be it colourful hard stones, like chrysoprase, mother-of-pearl, rhodonite, satiny matte gold, or sparkling diamonds.
The geometric patterns in the gold, diamond and gemstones pieces mimic the repeated shapes adorning the city’s legendary Doge’s Palace at St Mark’s Square.
The floral shapes are layered in designs with diamonds, gold, and colourful hard stones, such as carnelian and amazonite.
“In a world increasingly dominated by large groups, Roberto Coin remains one of the few international brands that remains proudly independent and family-owned,” continued Mr Kevin Coin.
“I believe this sets us apart, and our clients can feel the authenticity behind everything we do. We are a real family – genuine, passionate and with much more still to share.”
The Roberto Coin collections are available at the BJC Pavilion in Hall 6 of the EWB.
