I just came back from my trip and had a great time!
EveKitty, I gave your regards to everyone at Vaggi and the SA that worked with you said hello and she hopes you are enjoying your piece!

We took a tour of Vaggi's building (the corner store, though he has another store on the Ponte Vecchio which is his smaller, original shop) and it is gorgeous! The view from upstairs over the river is amazing. I ended up purchasing a Roberto Coin bracelet from the apasionata collection - it is almost like a box chain link, but round, with a pave diamond clasp. My mom bought a bracelet with brown diamonds from the new things in the fantasia collection. His own designs are gorgeous - I was eyeing a trio of rose gold, white gold, and yellow gold bangles with diamonds but decided this was more practical for every day use. It was so nice to see him and his family and to catch up!

Wow! Hope I get there one day! Can you post a picture of your bracelet? Would love to see it -- I love Roberto Coin!!

My sister bought a ring from the Fantasia collection! It is a beautiful collection! I think the brown diamonds might be called champagne.

I am trying to take a photo, but the flash is making the diamonds in the middle become too bright and you can't see any of the detail. I will attempt it again in better, natural light. It is not the 3 row apassionata bracelet, but more of a woven, almost like a round box stitch type, with a pave clasp in the middle. It also comes in a very large size.

Hi there floridagal!

Thank you sending my regards to Roberto and Elisabeth!

I'm so glad you and your mom found yourselves something nice at Vaggi! I can't wait to see photos of your new bracelet, and your mom's too, they sound lovely. Elisabeth showed me some of the Roberto Coin collection they had, and I would have almost bought something if not for my boyfriend, impatiently tugging at my sleeve and wanting to leave. I really hope to go back there one day!
