Roberto Coin 2010 Winter Olympics Jewelry

Filed under: Jewelry

In 2008 jeweler Roberto Coin created a $31,000 golden sneaker, gold boxing glove pendant and more for the Beijing Olympics. His line for the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games is an extension of his Tiny Treasure Collection. The pieces include a pair of delicate skates, crossed skis or hockey sticks and snowboards. All of the pendants are white gold decorated with either black or white diamonds and sell for $640 - $800, a more modest tie-in for a more understated Olympic season.

Roberto Coin's 'Animalier' Collection

Apparently looking to capture the spirit and energy of the wild kingdom, Roberto Coin has taken inspiration from creatures like elephants, giraffes, and cobras to created the Animalier Collection. Using mostly diamonds, gold, silver, and enamel, with occasional appearances by other precious materials like onyx and tiger's eye, the collection is full of vibrancy, sparkle, and organic earthy inspiration. And as an additional bonus, each piece has a ruby placed on it, usually hidden somewhere on the inside, as an artist's signature and also a symbol of protection.

I wouldn't have thought that one of the snake ones would be my favorite, but I just love the chunky pink cobra ring!
