Cartier has officially brought colour back to LOVE. The latest launch introduces six vibrant bracelets, signalling a bold new chapter for one of the maison’s most iconic jewellery collections. Three styles feature rows of pavé-set stones, while another three replace the traditional screws with coloured gemstones. Altogether, they firmly establish colour as part of the range’s evolving future.
Of course, this isn’t the maison’s first foray into colourful LOVE bracelets. Back in 2009, a limited-edition series featured coloured stones, soon proving there was genuine appetite for jewel-like interpretations. Unofficially dubbed the ‘Cartier Rainbow LOVE’, it developed a cult following. Fans loved how its spectrum of gemstones softened the bracelet’s architectural character with a playful energy.
Now, Cartier revisits that idea through six new models split into two distinct camps. The first three transform the bracelet into a dazzling ribbon of pavé-set stones, in either pink sapphires, blue sapphires or tsavorite garnets. In place of the signature screws sit 10 brilliant-cut diamonds, creating bracelets that make no attempt at subtlety. Worn alone, they shine as statement pieces. Stacked alongside a classic LOVE bracelet, they become the spark that elevates the entire wrist.

The remaining three styles take a more nuanced approach. Here, 10 coloured gemstones replace the screws, forming carefully considered gradients across the bracelet. The yellow and rose gold versions combine amethysts, pink and yellow sapphires, spessartite garnets and green tsavorites. Meanwhile, the white gold edition follows a cooler palette of aquamarines, amethysts, pink and blue sapphires, and tanzanites. Despite the difference in execution, both approaches remain unmistakably Cartier.
Part of what makes this relaunch so compelling is how it changes the way LOVE can be worn. Traditionally, stacking centred on mixing metals or pairing classic gold with diamond pavé. Colour inspires an entirely new conversation.
And for those discovering LOVE for the first time, it offers a vibrant new way into one of Cartier’s most enduring jewellery icons. In Singapore, prices start at SGD26,900 for the yellow and rose gold versions, reaching SGD99,500 for the white gold bracelet set with blue sapphires and diamonds.
