Cartier: A 'Trinity' ring The three interconnecting 18 carat tri-coloured gold bands, signed Cartier, maker's mark, numbered, European convention mark, Swiss assay mark, Cartier size 50Accompanied by a Cartier case. Louis Cartier was a gentleman who curated an electric and fascinating group of friends and counted amongst his close circle in Paris the famed aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, Jeanne Toussaint and the poet Jean Cocteau.As the story goes, one evening in the early 1920s, Cocteau described dreaming of the rings of Saturn to Louis Cartier. He asked Louis to transform the magic of those celestial rings into a small ring for his little finger. The engineering behind perfecting the smooth rolling motion of three bands gliding over each other, without catching the wearer’s skin or becoming rigid required an engineering masterstroke, one which Cartier’s workshop on the Rue de la Paix was by now well used to fulfilling.In 1924 Louis presented Cocteau with a small ring of three interconnecting bands, devoid of any further decoration. Cocteau declared Louis was “a subtle magician who captures fragments of the moon on a thread of the sun”. Cocteau would go on to wear that ring for decades to come, making him the perfect ambassador of what would become one of the most sought-after rings for both men and women.Initially platinum was used for one of the bands but it was later replaced by white gold. The design was known at the time as bague trois ors (triple gold ring) or a bague trois anneaux (triple-ringed ring). Just the following year, the design was enlarged into a bangle. The first bangle was purchased in 1925 by Elsie de Wolfe, a famed American interior designer.In 1925 American Vogue ran editorial on Cartier's new jewellery including an image of the model Luella Kendall Lee wearing two stacked Trinity bracelets and a ring. Lee would go on to marry one of Cartier New York's top sales executives, Jules Glaenzer. Vogue described them as “amazingly chic” and also “very moderate in price”. Highlighting the conscious choice to begin to curate a wider client base. Fans of the Trinity collection include amongst others King Charles III, Gary Cooper, Princess Diana, Grace Kelly and King Edward VIII, the Duke of Windsor, who wore two stacked upon his little finger.
Cartier: An aquamarine and diamond brooch circa 1935 Designed as two demi-lunes, composed of oval-cut aquamarines and brilliant-cut diamonds, connected by a rectangular step-cut aquamarine, diamonds approx. 0.60 carat total, signed Cartier London, numbered, width 3.5cm By repute, purchased in the 1930s from Cartier. The original owner was an English socialite who had a home in Kent and was good friends with Lady Vita Sackville-West, the well regarded author, who lived nearby at Knole House. Hence by descent. Following the US Stock Market Crash in 1929, the global economy felt the shockwaves. Although disproportionally affecting those in lower economic classes, the jewellery industry was not untouched. As prices, supply and demand for top coloured stones, such a rubies, sapphires and emeralds felt the repercussions, so to did the spending power of clients. Jacques Cartier chose to make a unique strategic move. For several years the three Cartier brothers subtly bought up the best quality aquamarines (as well as topaz) on the wholesale market. Jacques Cartier was particularly drawn to aquamarines, as well as topaz, as those stones lent themselves to the rectangular cuts which complimented the architectural style of Art Deco jewels. In order not to alert their competitors that they were planning new ranges of jewels featuring these “semi-precious” gemstones, they would acquire the best gems available, but never so much as to draw attention to themselves.Cartier’s aquamarine jewellery appears to have been predominantly produced from the London workshop starting in 1932. Several American clients ordered aquamarine jewellery specifically through the New Bond Street London premises. One of the most notable advocates for Cartier’s aquamarine collections was the famed American interior designer Elsie de Wolfe. She commissioned a striking aquamarine spiral halo tiara in 1935, and to complete the look, had her hair tinted blue to match. Due to their strategic gemstone buying in both London and Paris, when the Cartier store windows were filled with aquamarine and platinum jewels as well as topaz and yellow gold creations, their competitors found it almost impossible to find premium gemstones. If they were offered any, the gemstones would cost substantially more than the Cartier brothers had paid.See Rudoe, Judy Cartier 1900-1939, British Museum Press, London, 1997, page 263 and Cartier Brickell, Francesca, The Cartiers, Ballantine Books, New York, 2019, pages 323-325.
Cartier: A 5.08 carat diamond single-stone ring circa 1925 Set with a cut cornered, step-cut diamond, weighing 5.08 carats, in a four-claw setting, signed Cartier, numbered, ring size PAccompanied a later Cartier case as well as a Letter of Expertise from IAJA Expertise stating that the ring is a genuine Cartier New York item from circa 1925. Letter numbered XP2197-290125, dated 29th January 2025.The diamond has been assessed unmounted by GCS and a verbal result given that the diamond is L colour, VS1 clarity. It is rarely discussed in jewellery history who actually cut the diamonds and gemstones which find themselves adoring fabulous jewels. The role of the lapidary is even further removed from the limelight than that of the goldsmith.However one name in diamond cutting has managed to carve out a well deserved reputation. The Amsterdam based firm of I J Asscher Diamond Company has cut some of the most famous diamonds in history, including the 3,106 carat Cullinan Diamond.Founded in 1854 by Joseph Asscher, its global headquarters are still located on the original site Tolstraat 127, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. In 1904 they patented a cut of diamond unlike anything else at the time. The Asscher-cut is almost square and was composed of 50 or 58 facets. The geometric style meant that it perfectly suited the Art Deco jewels made in the coming decades.Asscher was well known to be a preferred diamond supplier to Cartier. A diamond of similar appearance to this one, appears central in the Patiala necklace made by Cartier in 1928.Sadly a large amount of the Asscher firm’s archives was lost in the Nazi occupation during WWII. Like the vast majority of other diamonds, it is not possible to know for sure who cut this particular diamond but the style and angular facet arrangement are indicative of the firm’s output.
Cartier: A diamond 'Love' bangle The polished bangle accented at intervals with alternating screwhead motif and brilliant-cut diamonds, signed Cartier, maker's mark, numbered, Cartier size 19Accompanied by a Cartier case, box and screwdriver as well as a certificate of authenticity dated 2016. Born out of the cultural revolution happening in late 1960s America but also the transformation happening internally at Cartier, a drastically different jewel was created. In 1962 Claude Cartier took the monumental step to sell Cartier New York. For the first time in history a branch of Cartier was not under the control of the family. By 1968 Cartier New York was owned by Kenton Corporation, and the chairman Robert Kenmore was keen for a fresh take on the historic French house.When the charismatic young Italian American Aldo Cipullo (1935-1974) left Tiffany & Co. and joined Cartier in 1969, he brought with him the design for a simple gold bangle that screwed onto the wrist, designed never to be removed. Cipullo had offered the design to Tiffany & Co. while working there, but they had passed on it.Kenmore saw the potential in the simple gold bracelet and Cipullo’s first creation for Cartier was put into production. The romantic notion behind the “Love” bangle was coupled with the advent of a far greater output of machine-made fine jewellery entering the market. It was an instant sensation, retailing for $250 dollars initially. To market the Love Bangle's release in 1970, Cartier gifted twenty five pairs to famous couples including the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, and Steve McQueen and Ali Macgraw. Many of whom would go on to wear those bangles for years to come.The range was expanded quickly, platinum Love bangles were released in 1970, white gold in 1973, diamond-set versions in 1979 and finally rose gold in the 1990s. Ordinally only available in the US, it's popularity meant that it was soon released in Europe via the Cartier Paris branch in the early 1970s where it was called the Bracelet à Vis. Finally by 1982 it was available to purchase worldwide. It has been suggested that the Love bangle was a homage to the Menotte bangle designed in 1939 (see lots 49 and 50). However, as the original Menotte bracelets were heavily gem-set and devoid of the working screw mechanism, both features so intrinsic to the later Love bangle, this attribution seems doubtful. It would have also been unlikely that Cipullo, who was working for Cartier in New York which at that time not an affiliate company of Cartier Paris, would have had access to the French archives. The more realistic archival inspiration integrated into both the contemporary Menotte and the Love bangles' design was the screwheads that decorated the original Santos watch’s bezel, designed by Louis Cartier in 1904.For further reading see Cipullo, Renato and Becker, Vivienne, Cipullo; Making Jewellery Modern, Assouline, 2001.
Cartier: A platinum "Love" ring Small model; the thin platinum band decorated at intervals with screwhead motifs, signed Cartier, numbered, European convention mark, Swiss assay mark, Cartier size 59 Born out of the cultural revolution happening in late 1960s America but also the transformation happening internally at Cartier, a drastically different jewel was created.

Cartier: A seven-band 'Trinity' ring The seven interlocking tri-coloured bands, signed Cartier, ring size M Louis Cartier was a gentleman who curated an electric and fascinating group of friends and counted amongst his close circle in Paris the famed aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, Jeanne Toussaint and the poet Jean Cocteau.As the story goes, one evening in the early 1920s, Cocteau described dreaming of the rings of Saturn to Louis Cartier.

Cartier: A gold necklace by Georges Lenfant with a detachable Imperial topaz and diamond cluster 1960 The 18 carat gold necklace of polished and matte woven design in a herringbone pattern, featuring a detachable spacer that converts into a brooch, centrally set with a step-cut topaz, each of the four claws buttressed by a baguette-cut diamond, within an oval angled surround pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds, diamonds approx. 4.50 carats total, topaz approx. 24.50 carats, necklace signed Cartier, partial maker's mark GL for Georges Lenfant, numbered, maker's mark JC and London import mark, French export marks, brooch unsigned, lengths: necklace 37.3cm, brooch 3.3cmAccompanied by a fitted Cartier case.Please note this lot will be subject to VAT of 5% on the hammer price. The design of this brooch is identical to two which featured in a Cartier necklace previously sold at Christie's sentinel auction “Jewellery and Objects by Cartier” held in Geneva on the 25 May 1993, lot 799. As with this example, that necklace was unsigned but was presented with a catalogue footnote “Although not signed, this necklace was purchased by the present owner at Cartier, London in July 1962”.Georges Lenfant (sometimes seen as "L’Enfant") and his son Jacques Lenfant are regarded as some of the most skilled goldsmiths of the 20th century. Their distinctive work is now highly sought after by collectors. However, throughout their careers they operated behind the scenes, making exquisite jewellery for the famous Parisian jewellers of the Place Vendôme and Rue de la Paix. He was a workmaster for Cartier, as well as making creations for Mellerio, Hermès, and Van Cleef & Arpels amongst others. Born into the jewellery trade, Georges Lenfant set up his own workshop around the turn of the last century. In 1903 he was listed in the ‘Revue de la Bijouterie, Joaillerie, Orfèvrerie’. By 1909 he had registered his distinctive maker's mark. In 1915 Jacques Lenfant began helping in his father's workshop at just 11 years old. He continued his education studying in France, Germany, Austria and England before formerly joining the company in 1927. Following the Second World War, Jacques took over control of the company. It was Jacques who in the late 1950s pioneered the now iconic woven and textured goldsmithing techniques for which the house became world famous. Jacques Lenfant died in 1996 and the company was subsequently purchased by Benjamin Leneman in 1998, thereafter becoming the Bouder workshop. Jacques teaching roles at the Chambre Syndicale de la Joaillerie, Bijouterie et Orfèvrerie were testament to his dedication to goldsmithing education. In 1980 he created an award to celebrate top students, which is still awarded today. He also wrote the book Le Livre de la Chaîne, which was commissioned by the Chambre Syndicale, but was sadly only published posthumously in 1996.The pattern of this necklace is identified in Le Livre du Chaine as "Tissu Polonais Presse Empire Relief" or Polish Press Empire Relief Fabric, see page 90. This was a term Lenfant used to describe a distinct type of woven gold chain designed as an homage to patterns in traditional Polish and Milanese fabric.

Cartier: A gold tie pin 1978 Designed as a 9 carat gold safety pin, signed Cartier, maker's mark C&F; for Cropp & Farr, London hallmark, length 4.5cmAccompanied by a Cartier case. Croop & Farr were known suppliers to Cartier’s London store beginning in the 1920-30s. Jacques Cartier set up English Art Works in 1922 to train goldsmiths and craftsmen in London who could work to the exacting standards set by the Pairs workshops. However, they still relied on a variety of local suppliers thereafter for certain items. Each supplier had a speciality, such as Wright & Davis on Rosebery Avenue who supplied Cartier with cigarette cases and lighters. Cropp & Farr were known to supply studs and links.
