| April 15, 2012 | All about Angelina’s engagement ring designer Robert Procop | |
Washington: Since the confirmation of the news that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will tie the knot, the Internet has been
buzzing about Robert Procop, the man behind the actress’ engagement ring. Procop
even worked with Jolie on her “Style of Jolie” jewellery line last year. Now everyone
knows that Procop, who has shops in Beverly Hills , Geneva and Hong Kong , collaborated
with Pitt for a year on creating the beautiful bauble, but there a many things
that people still need to know. People magazine has listed 5 things that need
to be known about Procop. Firstly, his Beverly Hills store is open by appointment
only. Procop’s Los Angeles shop is located on Dayton Way and Rodeo Drive , right
in the heart of 90210. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy to find. Tucked away in
a private location, an address to the place is not given freely over the phone.
The designer sees clients on an appointment-only basis. Secondly, his jewellery
is also worn by Robert Downey Jr.’s wife. The actor’s better half, Susan, stepped
out this week at the L.A. premiere of The Avengers, sporting amethyst jewelry
made by Procop in honor of their new son Exton’s birthstone. At the 2011 Oscars,
she also wore earrings Procop designed with Jolie. Thirdly, his jewellery success
paid his way through college. Procop’s teenage years were spent buying and selling
diamonds. He became so well established as a gemstone trader that he was able
to afford his university studies all on his own. He went on to open his Beverly
Hills shop during his final year of school. Fourthly, he calls it an honour to
work with Jolie. “Angelina embodies sensual elegance, serene confidence and incomparable
spirit,” People magazine quoted him as saying. Lastly, he’s charitable. For years,
Procop has been involved in the L.A.-based non-profit the House of Ruth, which
helps families affected by domestic violence. According to his website, Procop
bought and developed two shelters for the charity. The jeweller also “unequivocally
supports Angelina Jolie’s charitable efforts helping children living in regions
of conflict around the globe,” says the site. |
