The Cartier Love bangle remains a hot seller in our Boca Raton showroom, and even withstood last year’s record high gold prices. The rare Love cuff can also be found on occasion. Cartier also offers variations of the original Love bracelet, like its 18kt white gold versions, rose gold versions, diamond studded editions, and special edition pave, ceramic and gemstone Love Bangles. The utilitarian appearance of the screws is elegantly juxtaposed with the gorgeous 18kt yellow gold and makes for a striking and instantly recognizable design. The original Love bracelet is a simple, modernist approach with clean graphic lines. In a take on Cipullo’s original intention for the bracelet, Cartier also offers screwdriver necklaces, so that one wearer has the Love bangle “locked” on their wrist, and the other wears the screwdriver “key” as a symbol of their partnership.Ī little known fact: any screwdriver can open the Love bracelet, but the screwdriver that accompanies the bracelet is very valuable. Where a traditional bangle would be wide enough to allow the wearer to slip it over their hand, the Love bangle is sized to the wearer’s wrist.Ĭlick here for a Cartier Love Bracelet Sizing Guide The screwing enclosure on the Love bracelet is perhaps its most distinctive feature. Cartier publicized the bracelet at first by gifting pairs of Love bangles to famous Cartier fans like Elizabeth Taylor & Richard Burton. His idea was that couples could exchange the bracelets, much like rings, as a symbol of everlasting devotion once the bracelets were closed around the wearer’s wrists, they could only be removed with the accompanying (and almost equally famous) Cartier screwdriver. Cipullo began his career in his home country of Italy before moving stateside and working for David Webb as well as Tiffany & Co.Ĭipullo has said that his initial inspiration for the famous Love bracelet was the medieval chastity belt, thanks to its secure screw enclosure. The Cartier Love collection now includes rings, necklaces, cufflinks, and even watches, but it all started in 1969 with the original design of the Cartier Love bracelet.Īldo Cipullo, the renowned jewelry designer who created the trademark bangle, designed the Love bracelet for Cartier. We consider it a jewelry collection staple, and a true classic.
