Golden Touch

By The Watches of Switzerland Group 3 Minute Read

Gold jewellery, be it yellow, rose, or white in colour, has been worn for centuries as a mark of wealth, status, or rank. It’s well known that jewellery of the highest quality is usually made from this metal, and for those who are embracing sustainability and taking a ‘buy less, wear well’ approach, gold pieces are an excellent jewellery-box investment.

For this edit, we have selected some of our favourite staple pieces from Roberto Coin and our own exclusive Libretto collection. Any of these designs would be perfect either as an addition to your existing collection, or as the starting point for a ‘capsule wardrobe’ of classic and wearable jewellery (while still leaving room for a statement piece or two).

Stack ’em high

More is more when it comes to an earring collection. The trend for stacking is here to stay, and whether you like to adorn with hoops or a statement stud, we have the perfect designs to accessorise your ears.

Of course, the stud earring will always be in style, and it’s versatile enough to take you from desk to dinner. Allowing the brilliant-cut diamond to take centre stage, our Libretto 18-carat gold diamond earrings are available in white gold and yellow gold.

The contemporary and cool ‘climber’ design gives an alternative shape that will effortlessly elevate a look. With five diamonds graduating in size as they ascend the ear lobe, these pieces give the illusion of multiple studs; the ‘earscape’ of a stack of earrings is all the rage among the fashion ‘It’ crowd, but a climber earring is the perfect way to try this trend without committing to the extra piercings.

The ultimate style perennial, the hoop earring is an essential piece for any collection. Our Libretto diamond hoops are a contemporary classic while Roberto Coin’s Love in Verona collection displays the brand’s iconic flower motif in diamonds, set into the 18-carat yellow gold of the earring.

Perfect symmetry

Another jewellery item that has endured the decades and various fashion trends is the tennis bracelet. This simple circlet of diamonds, whether worn alone or as part of a tinkling stack, is certain to look as good in twenty years as it does today. We have a choice of sophisticated diamond-line bracelets in our Libretto collection, including an 18-carat white-gold option, an 18-carat yellow-gold piece, and an exquisite showstopper featuring 4.48 carats of sparkling brilliant-cut stones.

Having a matching set in your jewellery box, such as the Roberto Coin Love in Verona collection, will always result in a put-together look, and can be the perfect way to dress up an outfit.

For the ages

Diamonds are the ultimate jewellery-box staple and, as investment pieces, they will remain in fashion for years to come. Our Libretto diamond pendant is sure to become an heirloom that will be passed down and cherished for generations.
