About Roberto Coin brand
Before establishing the eponymous brand, Roberto Coin learned the craft of jewelry making from the Italian manufacturers.
He started a company that supplied other jewelers with 18k gold items. Twenty year later, in 1996 Roberto Coin introduced his first collection Appassionata under his name in the US.
Coin's sources of inspiration are his travels, nature, and Italian heritage. Roberto Coin jewelry is considered the modern Italian standards of quality and elegance. His hand-hammered pieces always have been at the highest level of making.
Roberto design is based on maximum wearability of his pieces. Coin's jewelry gives a wearer freedom to create bracelet stacks and necklace layering. Roberto Coin pieces from different collections can be easily mixed with each other — just like the designer mixes different colors of gold in the great looking combinations.
About estate jewelry
Buying jewelry online can be challenging. The quality of the making has not got better over the time while the design is getting more and more generic. Add ever rising prices and you could end up with not finding anything suitable. To purchase a high-quality jewelry piece for an obtainable price consider buying estate items.
• Quality vs Quantity
Estate pieces mostly belong to the era when jewels were handmade
and not mass produced. There were simply less jewelry makers at that time
and they cared about their reputation. Opposed to the current fast fashion approach, life pace was in general slower. That allowed makers to take more time to craft a truly quality piece.
• Fair Price vs Overpriced
Buying designer pieces aka signed pieces we pay not only for an item
itself. The brand advertising campaigns and all the buzz the name is creating is in the cost. Prices for estate jewelry form differently and mostly depend on the cost paid by a seller. A pre-owned Bulgari ring and a brand- new Bulgari piece have a distinct price difference. Ask your local jewelry store about a retail price of the desired piece and you’d be pleasantly surprised.
• True Value vs Seasonal Rush
Pre-owned jewelry retains its value. Over the time it gets rare
and more expensive. Think purchasing a new car that loses its value right after you left your dealer versus buying a vintage vehicle.
