Question 7

Is the Cartier Love ring timeless?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Cartier Love ring is timeless. Following the immense success of the Love bracelet, a radical and provocative accessory designed for Cartier by Italian-born jeweler Aldo Cipullo in 1969, the French luxury house went on to produce earrings, necklaces and rings. (The Cartier Love ring was originally dotted with miniature faux screwheads that mirrored those of the groundbreaking modernist cuff before it.) It’s long been reported that the Love collection is the brand’s most popular and largest series, as Cartier has since augmented the line with cufflinks and watches, too. Shop a selection of vintage Cartier Love rings on 1stDibs.

Question 8

Is Cartier love a good investment?

Accepted Answer

Whether or not Cartier’s Love jewelry is a good investment will depend upon a range of factors such as rarity, condition and more. While a study of luxury investments in 2019 found that jewelry was among the worst-performing collectibles (luxury handbags had the highest returns), experts have reported that jewelry’s status as an investment is improving.

For its extraordinary range of bracelets, watches, rings and other adornments, French luxury house Cartier is revered all over the world among clients both existing and aspirational, and the Cartier Love bracelet is one of the most iconic pieces of jewelry of the past century, if not all time. When Italian-born American jewelry designer Aldo Cipullo (1935–84) created the company’s signature bangle, he believed that the bond and commitment embodied in love deserved their own distinctive symbol. Eventually, a full-fledged Love collection, including bracelets of different sizes and materials as well as earrings, necklaces and rings, was introduced by Cartier.

Determining the value of any collectible depends upon a variety of aspects. Because Cartier is so well-known for its legacy of craftsmanship and use of quality materials in its wide range of offerings, this can have a positive effect on the long-term value of its jewelry.

Jewelry industry professionals advise that investment-worthy high-quality vintage jewelry should include its maker’s hallmarks. (If the 700 fake Cartier Love bracelets seized in Cincinnati in 2022 were authentic, they would’ve had a retail value of nearly $8.9 million as well as properly executed Cartier hallmarks. On a fake Cartier Love bracelet, the Cartier logo may mistakenly appear on both sides of the bracelet and be sloppily executed.)

At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Buyers should keep in mind that the value of any investment is subject to fluctuation, and any investment decisions should be made according to the guidance of a financial advisor. Find a range of jewelry from Cartier’s Love collection on 1stDibs.

Question 9

How do you open Cartier Love earrings?

Accepted Answer

To open Cartier Love earrings, grip the round loop that the wire flips through and gently pull it back. If you’re struggling to open the box the earrings come in, simply push the gold knob on the front to lift the lid. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Cartier Love earrings.

Question 10

What does the Cartier Love ring symbolize?

Accepted Answer

What the Cartier Love ring symbolizes is a matter of personal interpretation. The ring is part of Cartier’s Love collection, which started with the Love bracelet in 1969, a piece inspired by the lore of medieval chastity belts. As a result, many people associate the Love ring and other pieces in Cartier's Love collection with protecting or “locking in” love. Others see the ring as a symbol of everlasting love in a relationship. Find a selection of vintage Cartier Love rings on 1sDibs.

Question 11

What is the meaning of the Cartier Love ring?

Accepted Answer

The meaning of the Cartier Love ring is widely understood to be rooted in love and romance.

Question 17

Where is the Robert Indiana Love sculpture?

Question 18

What does the Cartier Love necklace mean?

Accepted Answer

While what the Cartier Love necklace means is truly up to the wearer, the accessory’s specific construction had deep meaning for its designer. When Italian-born American jewelry designer Aldo Cipullo (1935–84) created the Love bracelet, which was the first piece in the Love collection, he was inspired by chastity belts and the promise of romantic love. Although it’s since been updated to lock and unlock on its own, the original Love bracelet came with a gold-vermeil screwdriver. One lover wore Cipullo’s striking cuff, while the other carried the tool to open and close it. The piece would thus be an immutable symbol of a couple’s love — immutable, that is, until the guardian of the screwdriver agreed to remove it. The mock flathead screws motif that characterizes the original bracelet can also be seen on the Love necklace’s pendant. On 1stDibs, shop a range of Cartier Love necklaces.

Question 19

What is the point of the Cartier Love bracelet?

Accepted Answer

The point of the Cartier Love bracelet is to add flair to ensembles with the accessory’s sleek metal form and, sometimes, the sparkle of diamonds, depending on the piece. In terms of symbolism, the French luxury jewelry maker's iconic bracelet represents the idea of locking down love for the long term. The lore of medieval chastity belts was one of the inspirations for the design, including the screw detailing that runs along the Love bracelet. Shop a collection of Cartier Love bracelets on 1stDibs.

Question 20

What do you call a person who loves jewelry?

Accepted Answer

Gemmaphile is a popular term for someone who loves to collect and wear jewelry featuring gemstones, while chrysophilist is the word for a lover of gold. More casually, you might refer to them as a jewelry lover, a jewelry fan or a jewelry fiend. On 1stDibs, explore a wide variety of jewelry.
