VENICE, Italy–Roberto Coin marked the 30th anniversary of his luxury jewelry brand in fitting Venetian fashion—with an extravagant Renaissance-inspired celebration and the unveiling of Meraviglia (“Wonder”), a new high jewelry collection comprising more than 500 one-of-a-kind creations.
In June, Coin invited approximately 300 clients from around the world to experience the inspiration behind the collection: Venice.

The black-tie gala at the Hotel Excelsior on the Lido featured singers and dancers dressed in Renaissance costume, evoking the era when Venice stood among the world’s greatest centers of commerce and artistic achievement. The evening concluded with a fireworks display over the lagoon.
“Venice is special to me because I was born here,” Coin told guests. “I lived away for a very long time. I came back when I was older, and I understood that if you understand Venice, you understand life.
The high jewelry collection was presented inside a 12th-century church on San Clemente Island, a secluded island in the Venetian lagoon that once served as a monastery and later an asylum before becoming home to a luxury hotel.
Inside the church, more than 500 high jewelry creations were displayed, many presented as complete suites of necklaces, earrings, bracelets and rings.

That remarkable output reflects both Coin’s prolific imagination and the company’s vertically integrated manufacturing operation, which is designed to translate his constantly evolving ideas into finished jewels. Coin estimates he creates about 600 new designs each year.
The Meraviglia collection spans an extraordinary range of styles and gemstones. Floral creations feature colorful enamel, mother-of-pearl and vibrant colored gems, while animal motifs sparkle with diamond pavé. Other highlights include necklaces centered on exceptional cushion-cut emeralds, jewels featuring rubellites and orange topaz, openworked lattice-inspired diamond creations, and a dramatic statement necklace set with large multicolored gemstones in a variety of cuts.
Among the standout creations was a $1 million necklace featuring alternating white and yellow diamonds culminating in a 15-carat cushion-cut yellow diamond pendant. The necklace, along with its matching earrings and rings, was purchased immediately by a client.
Another significant introduction was the revival of Cobra, one of Roberto Coin’s signature collections originally introduced in the late 1990s. Reimagined for the brand’s 30th anniversary, Cobra has been elevated into the realm of high jewelry for the first time.
