Roberto Coin - Vision to Bewitching Reality

The first is the Classica Parisienne collection. Of personified elegance, here one discovers, the magic of gold's delicate, yet sinewy essence. Light and thin, this beautiful range is marked by circular and elegant shapes. Pendants and earrings bewitch in white gold, twinkling with diamonds and rubies. Just ideal for the woman of today, who believes in understating her presence to take a stance.

The second collection is the Cobra collection of bracelets. Wrap one on your wrist, to discover that the colour of envy is indeed green! Strictly for those who dare to express their wild streak, a Cobra bracelet captures the sinuous movement of one of nature's most feared reptiles. And the result is..... a tempting twist of yellow, white, pink, light blue and black enamel. Available in both the enameled and diamonds version, and the only diamonds range, it is set off with a glorious ruby in the clasp. Signature of its master creator, Roberto Coin.

"Roberto Coin is a pioneer of several exciting trends in the world of jewellery, like the incorporation of gold in two and three colours, which is a forerunner to the hugely popular trend of white gold. Roberto Coin delights in reinventing styles in ever new interpretations. Endeavours that Damas recognizes in it's efforts to offer the most innovative designs in the world of jewellery, to its customers," said Mr. Tawhid Abdullah, Managing Director of Damas.

The setting for this saga in gold was Vicenza, Italy. And the year 1977. Destiny seems to have conspired to bring together just the right ingredients to unleash her spell of magic. In Roberto Coin, inspiration had found her apt vessel of expression. For, his creations dare to break away from traditional modes of design. Yet incorporate inspiration drawn from other cultures. And it is this adventurous spirit that draws one irresistibly to a Roberto Coin piece.

Consider the Appassionata Collection. Dream creations in a fabric-like meshwork of gold threads.

Available at select Damas outlets, both the Classica Parisienne collection and the Cobra bracelet creations prompt one to conclude rightly, that fairy tales do come true. Catch the 2005 Roberto Coin's Traveling Collection on display at Saks Fifth Avenue Jewellery Court from 10th March - 12th March.
