Where to Sell a Cartier LOVE Bracelet
Because they are so iconic, there are a wide variety of places to sell a Cartier LOVE bracelet. But as with everything, there are pros and cons to each.
Consignment – Both brick and mortar consignment stores as well as online options with high end items will likely have at least one Cartier LOVE bracelet for sale at any given time. The pro for consignment stores is that there are many options and you can pick what’s more convenient for you. The con, however, is that you will only be paid once your bracelet sells, which could be days but could also take weeks or months.
Online Jewelry Buyers – These are different from consignment stores in that they offer you money straight away for your bracelet. The pro, therefore, is quick payment. The con is that these site and stores are not intended for high end items and therefore will not be offering high end prices either.
Buy Back Options – More and more brands are offering Buy Back programs for their items. While Cartier currently offers this option for watches, it’s not available for other items, including LOVE bracelets.
Worthy – Worthy provides the best of both options by making our selling service extremely convenient, getting the highest prices for our sellers, and making sure sellers are paid as soon as possible.

History of the Cartier LOVE Bracelet
The design, according to the Maison, is “a love child of 1970s New York”. It was created by jewelry designer Aldo Cipullo, who had previously designed jewelry for Tiffany & Co. and went on to design more iconic pieces for Cartier, including the Juste un Clou bracelet. Cipullo’s goal with the LOVE bracelet was to design a piece of fine jewelry that could be worn every day, a rather revolutionary idea for the late 60s/early 70s when fine jewelry was reserved for fancy occasions only.
With the goal of creating a piece of everyday fine jewelry, Cipullo created a bracelet that could only be put on or taken off with the help of a precious metal screwdriver that came with the bracelet. One theory for the design was that the wearer would need someone, like a lover, to help them put it on and take it off. Another theory is that the bracelet can be worn forever, echoing the idea of never-ending love.
Today, the Cartier LOVE Collection includes the classic bracelet as well as rings, earrings, diamonds, and necklaces. The bracelet collection includes all-metal pieces as well as bracelets with one, four, six, or 10 diamonds and a full pave version. According to the Cartier website, the price range is between $4,450 to $62,000!
Beware of Fakes
In the US, LOVE bracelets can only be purchased from Cartier directly, and while this may seem inconvenient, it’s actually a blessing. With the bracelet popular for so many years, Cartier says it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish true LOVE bracelets from copies. So if you are looking to buy the real deal, you need to go right to the source.
