Cartier loosens the screws on its most famous bracelet with Love Unlimited

THE CARTIER LOVE BRACELET has never been shy – part jewel, part hardware, part love letter. When Aldo Cipullo designed it in 1969, it became a provocation in gold: an oval, fastened with miniature screws, declaring love as something permanent.

Now, more than 50 years on, Cartier has rethought the icon without dismantling it. Love Unlimited is the newest chapter in the story – not a reboot, but a remix. Where the original was about permanence, this one is about possibility. Love that stretches, flexes, adapts. Commitment, but with movement.

The design itself is clever. More than 200 components interlock to form a ribbon of gold so fluid it falls like silk. The screws remain – hand-polished, deliberate – but now they set a rhythm across gadrooned links.

The clasp, invisible and patent-pending, vanishes into the structure, leaving an unbroken flow that feels more like a pulse than a fastening.

And then the twist: this isn’t a bracelet that insists on being worn alone. Thanks to its discreet clasp – available in yellow, rose, or white gold – it can connect into pairs, chains, even endless loops. Solo or multiplied, it can adapt easily.

A companion ring mirrors the same cadence in miniature – whether stacked with the bracelet or worn solo.

Cartier hasn’t dismantled an icon; it has expanded it. Where Cipullo once declared love as fixed, Love Unlimited declares it as fluid – a bond that’s no less powerful for being open. No diamonds, no excess, just precision, tactility, and gold, reworked for the way we love now.

The Love bracelet was always a declaration. Love Unlimited is one, too. Only now, the statement isn’t “forever locked,” but “forever open.”
