About Dinh Van: Jean Dinh Van is considered the first jewelry designer in 1960s who started to make minimalist and affordable pieces. During the era of exclusivity, lavish lifestyle and celebrities, it was a bold and revolutionary move. After spending a decade working as a Cartier designer, Dinh Van set himself free to create jewelry on his terms. With the motto “Luxury is simplicity” the House created several iconic pieces and won the place in the pantheon of the timeless jewelry design. Dinh Van jewelry concept was new and refreshing. He mixed cotton cords and diamonds, silver and gold. The unconventional shapes, such as hand cuffs and razors, live in pure harmony in his pieces. The square ring Two Pearl with two contrast colored pearl was the first piece by Dinh Van bound to be iconic. Then highly admired Menottes and Serrure collections solidified the success. Dinh Van design combines femininity and delicacy with boldness and graphic lines. This powerful combo, along with the brand loyalty to their aesthetic values, keeps Dinh Van popularity running through decades. About Minimalist Jewelry: Minimalist jewelry is defined by its clean lines and understated elegance. It often uses geometric shapes, focusing on form rather than excessive detail. Designers like Jean Dinh Van, Elsa Peretti, Paloma Picasso have embraced this style. Minimalist jewelry appeals to those who value versatility, allowing to mix, match, and layer their jewels. Its popularity comes from its timeless appeal: minimalist jewelry makes a staple for those who seek sophistication in their everyday wardrobe.

Cartier by Cipullo Love Bracelet
By Aldo Cipullo for Cartier
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
Being a symbol of commitment, a Love bracelet was designed as a minimalistic piece in 1969 and was bound to become iconic. The Cartier Love bracelet is supposed to be put on by someone who mutually loves you. Two screws on both sides hold the bracelet together to represent locked in feelings.  The gold Love bracelet looks very neat. It has a perfect width, it's shiny yet classic and elegant. It's a perfect Cartier bracelet that suits anyone's taste.  This particular Love bracelet is signed by Love bracelet designer Aldo Cipullo. It's from 1970s and that's why it has both signatures, the Cartier and Cipullo. This Love bracelet is size 19 (will fit up to 7" wrist). Comes with a screwdriver. About Aldo Cipullo Aldo Cipullo is mostly known as a creator of the famous Cartier Love bracelet. However, he designed several iconic pieces, and his talent was appreciated by David Webb and Tiffany & Co. His father was a costume jewelry maker, and Aldo worked as an apprentice at one of his workshops. But Cipullo’s ambition went further than Italy where he was born. After he turned 23, he moved to New York to study at The School of Visual Arts. In 1969 Aldo Cipullo started to work for Cartier, and his glorious journey began. Very soon after Cipullo came up with the idea of Cartier Love bracelet. The new design made a big splash in the jewelry world. It was a completely new perspective of the classic look. There is a story behind creating Love bracelet. It says Cipullo was heartbroken at that time after a failed love affair. He wanted to lock in his memories as it was all he had left. Being fascinated by industrial features of New York City and all things hardware, he drew his first draft of the bracelet. Another emblematic piece by Cipullo called Juste en Clou (Just a Nail) came up in 1971. The minimalist, wrapped around nail-looking gold bracelet was a great success. Today the yellow gold, rose gold and white gold Cartier Nail...
