Vintage Aldo Cipullo Cartier 18k Gold Coral Necklace

About the Item

Aldo Cipullo, renowned for his innovative designs, crafted this exquisite necklace for Cartier in 1972. Bearing the distinguished markings "Cartier 18k" and "Aldo Cipullo 1972," the necklace seamlessly intertwines coral beads and gold links. Featuring a total of 18 beads, the necklace spans 21 inches in length, with an additional 1.5-inch bead drop adorning its center. Weighing 185.6 grams, this masterpiece reflects Cipullo's mastery in merging timeless elegance with contemporary flair. Aldo Cipullo was an Italian jewelry designer best known for his groundbreaking work with Cartier during the 1960s and 1970s. Born in Naples in 1935, Cipullo began his career in jewelry design at a young age, drawing inspiration from his family's tradition of goldsmithing. In 1969, Cipullo joined Cartier's New York branch, where he introduced a series of iconic designs that would redefine contemporary jewelry. One of his most famous creations was the Cartier Love bracelet, introduced in 1969, which featured a distinctive screw motif and was intended to be locked onto the wearer's wrist as a symbol of eternal love. Cipullo's designs were characterized by their bold simplicity and innovative use of materials. He often combined precious metals with unconventional materials like wood, leather, and enamel, creating pieces that were both luxurious and accessible. Aside from the Love bracelet, Cipullo's other notable designs for Cartier included the Juste un Clou (Just a Nail) collection, which transformed everyday objects into works of art, and the Trinity ring, which featured three interlocking bands of different colored gold.
