Cartier LOVE Bracelet (Small Model)

This is a yellow gold rigid bangle, specifically the 'Small Model' variant of the iconic Cartier LOVE Bracelet. The interior of the band features a series of high-quality engravings: the fineness mark '750' (indicating 18k gold), the size '17', the cursive 'Cartier' logotype, a copyright symbol, a serial number 'IP 6688', and additional distinctive hallmarks including a geometric maker's mark and a small box stamp. The piece is constructed from polished yellow gold with a flat interior profile and a slightly rounded exterior. The design utilizes a functional hinge and a single screw-locking mechanism, distinguishing it from the classic full-size model. Physically, the item shows moderate surface wear consistent with regular use, including fine hairline scratches and a light patina overall. There is a noticeable indentation or wear point near the hinge assembly on the left side. The craftsmanship is evident in the precise alignment of the interior stamps and the smooth articulation of the hinge. This style, originally designed in 1969 by Aldo Cipullo, remains a staple of modern luxury jewelry, representing high-end manufacture and permanent fashion status.
