Albert Coll

Albert Coll is a 90-year-old self-taught Spanish designer handcrafting jewellery since 1947. Winner of 12 national jewellery awards, Albert was a visionary ahead of his time, a jeweller breaking boundaries. He launched his eponymous label in 1956 with a groundbreaking collection featuring unique pieces meticulously handcrafted in Barcelona using noble materials. Albert’s love of experimentation with textures, materials, colours and shapes, resulted in jewellery with a sophisticated and strong identity. His eclectic inspirations and beautiful designs didn’t go unnoticed, so it was no surprise when he got offered to open a shop on the 5th Avenue in New York City. Albert declined because it wouldn’t feel like home. Despite closing down his company due to his age, he never stopped making jewellery and with his granddaughter’s help, Albert Coll has relaunched with a collection that features conceptual jewellery made 50 years ago. Pieces that were kept in his wardrobe and were only recently discovered by his granddaughter. Albert Coll is now relaunching with jewels made from titanium and gold that were considered too revolutionary for his time. Timeless pieces that will last forever.
