Questions About Love Is Blind
- What jewelry symbolizes love?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Many jewelry pieces can symbolize love.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The tradition of the loving cup involves two people drinking out of the double-handled cup at the same time.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A loving cup was originally a drinking cup that was designed to be shared at banquets, weddings and other celebrations. It featured two handles to make it easier to pass along. Cups would also be used as trophies, and led to the classic double-handled cup trophy shape.

- What necklace symbolizes love?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Many necklaces can symbolize love. One of the most popular options is the heart-shaped pendant necklace, as the heart has for centuries been associated with romance.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Originally debuting in 1979, the Love bracelet by Cartier was then re-released in 2011. The screw system was redesigned, and now remains attached to the bracelet. Shop a collection of Cartier jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023The meaning of the Cartier Love ring is widely understood to be rooted in love and romance. The ring was originally dotted with miniature faux screwheads that mirrored those of the groundbreaking modernist Love bracelet before it, which not only referenced the Love series’ playful signature characteristic but also prominently underscoring the theme of permanence that designer Aldo Cipullo had in mind when he conceived of the design. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Cartier love rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Versions of Robert Indiana's Love sculpture are in more than 50 cities worldwide. One of the most well-known examples is in John F.

- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023While 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.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023The 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.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024You can call someone who loves jewelry a few things. 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.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022For the Love of God by Damien Hirst is at the White Cube Gallery in London, United Kingdom. Hirst made the sculpture in 2007. It consists of a human skull covered in genuine diamonds. Shop a range of Damien Hirst art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023Yes, 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.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 2, 2023
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.)
