A fabulous Cartier set in solid 18k yellow gold, featuring broad, softly rounded rectangular links joined by intricate multi-row brick-style connectors. The contrast between the polished gold and finely articulated links gives the design beautiful texture and movement. A wonderful example of Cartier’s exceptional goldwork from this period.
Finding the original matching necklace and bracelet together is especially appealing. Both pieces have excellent proportions, with beautifully finished links and precise construction that allows them to move fluidly and sit comfortably. The necklace and bracelet can also be clipped together to create one longer necklace, adding another way to wear this gorgeous set. The quality of the workmanship is evident throughout, particularly in the intricate connecting sections and the way they are integrated into the larger polished links.
The necklace measures 16.25 inches in length and weighs 92.6 grams. The matching bracelet measures 6 inches in length and weighs 40.54 grams. Both pieces measure approximately 12 mm wide, with a combined weight of 133.14 grams of solid 18k yellow gold. An additional matching link is included.
Both pieces are signed Cartier, individually serial numbered and stamped 750 for 18k gold, with the 1989 date marking. The signatures, serial numbers and hallmarks are stamped directly into the gold. The clasps are integrated into the link design and feature additional safety locking clips for secure wear.
Presented together in a Cartier jewelry box, this is an exceptional vintage matching set with beautiful craftsmanship, rich gold color and the added appeal of its original matching components. Gorgeous worn together, separately or connected as one longer necklace, and particularly desirable as a complete set from 1989.
