Robinson Pelham marks 30th anniversary with Summer of ’96 collection

Robinson Pelham has launched its 30th-anniversary celebration, titled ‘Bold Since ’96’, marking the milestone with the debut of the Summer of ’96 collection. 

The brand, which was founded in 1996 by Vanessa Chilton, Kate Pelham-Burn, and Zoe Benyon, introduces several new collections and additions to existing bestsellers, focusing on the brand’s signature mix of “bold” colour, 14ct yellow gold, and everyday wearability. 

Key highlights from the new ranges include:

• Kinetic: A reimagining of an iconic 1990s shape, featuring curved earrings set with pie-cut diamonds, pink sapphires, and emeralds.
• Nirvana: Vivid enamel necklaces and articulated bracelets in pink, turquoise, and green, accented with diamonds.
• Meteor: A series of fringe drop earrings, bangles, and bombé rings utilising baguette diamonds and fluid gold beads.
• Solstice: Pavé diamond globe bracelets that can be joined together to convert into a choker, building on the house’s signature two-in-one concept.

The brand has also introduced Boudicca, a series of sculptural hinged ear cuffs designed to be worn without piercings, and Treble, an earring design that creates the illusion of a triple-pierced ear through a single piece.

Additions to existing lines include Utopia Blanc, featuring mother-of-pearl and 18ct gold beads on the brand’s signature pink thread, and new Daystar sun hoops and pendants designed for stacking. 

The Arena collection also sees new sculptural earring additions set with citrine, tanzanite, and blue topaz.

Robinson Pelham also released a new campaign shot in Mallorca by photographer Buzz White to capture the “effortless, storytelling spirit of the 90s”.

Based in Chelsea, London, Robinson Pelham has grown from a bespoke Pimlico atelier into a global brand stocked by international retailers including Marissa Collections and Reinhold. 

The Summer of ’96 collection is available now at the brand’s flagship boutique and online.

Vanessa Chilton, co-founder of Robinson Pelham, said: “Thirty years on, the founding philosophy that shaped Robinson Pelham remains unchanged: bold, joyful and unmistakably original. We continue to design pieces that celebrate individuality, jewellery that brings confidence, colour and a sense of pleasure to everyday life.”
