Precious bracelets for lovers from Cartier

The iconic unisex Love bracelet, created by Italian designer Aldo Cipullo for the American branch of Cartier, has long been famous. This model, invented in the 60s, in the hippie era, has an original look, which, like a wedding ring, symbolizes the shackles of love.

The originality is not only in the design of the bracelet, but also in the fact that you can put on or take it off only with the help of a small screwdriver that comes with the kit. Often a gold screwdriver is made in the form of a pendant. But to unscrew the bolt on your own, however, is difficult, you need outside help.
