I noticed that Cartier is spotlighting its classics archive, an unsurprising move as customers are feeling the pinch and prefer to invest in long-time keepables. Good timing then for this beautiful new Assouline book* on Aldo Cipullo, who was responsible for such cornerstone pieces as Cartier’s Love* and Juste Un Clou bracelets.

Fun fact: prior to Cartier, Aldo Cipullo worked at Tiffany, where he came up with the idea for the Love bracelet. Tiffany rejected it, so he took it to the chief executive of Cartier New York, who snapped it up and subsequently offered him a job there. Gotta love a happy ending.
