When Love Meets Design

A symbol of love, design innovation and timeless elegance, the Cartier Love Bracelet has captured the hearts of countless individuals around the world since its inception.

For all the warm, fuzzy feeling that the Cartier Love Bracelet preaches and embodies, it ironically began with a broken heart. The tale began in 1969 in New York City, where Cartier designer Aldo Cipullo conceived it after his romantic split. “I felt very sad,” he said, according to the book Cipullo: Making Jewelry Modern.
