The story of the Love Bracelet began in the free-spirited, revolutionary 1960s in New York City. The design is inspired by the ancient Roman tradition of securing a lover's door using a key and a padlock, Cartier Love was created by Aldo Cipullo. A symbol of eternal devotion, the love bracelet seemed to catch the spirit of the age, and became a widely used symbol for love, union and commitment. The design code for love are always evident with Cartier love bracelet.
The Love Bracelet is worn but also placed on with the love of your life. To fix in its position and make the lock tighter, you have to use a special screwdriver, and the whole process was full of symbolism about the union and commitment.
It's something really very romantic and emotional if one can wear it by putting it on themselves along with the love of one's life.
There are two types of Cartier Love Bracelet, the Love Bracelet (classic) and the Love Bracelet Small. Both versions of the Love Bracelet share the same choice of wrist size, available in seven different wrist sizes ranging from 15 cm to 21 cm to fit most people’s wrists.
To fit it perfectly, we advise to measure your wrist and add one centimeter to your size for a tight fit, or two centimeters for a looser fit. It should never be too loose that it can slip your hand. Here’s a size chart guide for your reference.
Both are available in 18karat white, yellow or rose gold. You may opt to add studded diamonds and gemstones.
In pave settings, diamonds are encrusted closely together to give a continuous surface of sparkle. The number of diamonds may vary, and some bracelets are even fully paved with diamonds. Also, the Love Bracelet could be set with gemstones in different methods such as pave, bezel, or prong settings. Color and type of gemstone vary with personal preference of the wearer.
One of the most important things to look for in determining whether or not your Cartier Love Bracelet is authentic is the code that appears on the bracelet. Once you understand how to read the code and once you're paying close attention to the fonts and the metals that are used, you're going to be much more confident in buying a true original in a second-hand market.
The code on Cartier Love Bracelet looks something like a mixture of letters and numbers, information concerning the authenticity and material of production.
Each Cartier Love bracelet is going to have a unique serial number. It is not a style number, rather it identifies a piece. The format of the serial can vary, but most are a combination of letters and numbers.
So for example it may have five numbers and one letter, three letters followed by three digits, or two letters followed by 4 digit numbers. The serial number will let you know the year of manufacture and the amount of units made for that specified year of manufacture. These numbers and letters should be deeply imprinted into the metal, and have thick, well-defined letters.
The famous Cartier logotype, in elegant cursive script, should be engraved inside the bracelet as well. Included is also the copyright symbol (c). Again, these markings should be clearly imprinted.
The hallmark indicates that it was made from a specific kind of metal. 18K gold bracelets are engraved with either the word "18k," "750," or both. Platinum bracelets have studs with "950".
Remember to look for other authentic indicators such as the quality of the screws, diamond shine, reflectiveness, shape, and packaging. For absolute assurance and peace of mind, bring it to a reliable jeweler or a Cartier authorized dealer for authentication.
