Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Is this Cartier d'Amour Bracelet authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: Is this the same as the Diamants Légers de Cartier? A: Yes. Cartier renamed the Diamants Légers collection to Cartier d'Amour. The design remains the same, celebrating the brilliance of a diamond in a delicate, closed setting. This is the Mini model (formerly known as the XS size).
Q: What materials is it made from? A: This bracelet is crafted from 18K yellow gold and features a single brilliant‑cut diamond. The diamond weight for the Mini model is typically 0.04 carats. Please refer to the close‑up photos to see the hallmarks and condition of the gold.
Q: What are the measurements and sizing? A: The central diamond setting measures approximately 0.4 cm in diameter. The chain length is adjustable and is designed to fit a wrist circumference of up to 18.5 cm. It features two jump rings, allowing you to wear it at a shorter or longer length for a perfect fit.
Q: Is the chain very delicate? A: Yes, the Mini model is known for its whisper‑thin, thread‑like chain that gives the diamond a "floating" appearance on the wrist. While 18K gold is durable, we recommend handling this dainty chain with care to prevent snagging.
Q: How does the clasp work? A: It fastens with a secure lobster clasp. The clasp attaches to one of the adjustment rings on the opposite end of the chain. It also features the signature Cartier logo charm at the end of the extender.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower or everyday? A: 18K gold and diamonds are durable materials suitable for daily wear. However, to maintain the shine and prevent build‑up under the setting, we recommend removing it before showering, swimming in chlorinated pools, or applying lotions and perfumes.
Q: What hallmarks should I look for? A: You should expect to find the Cartier signature, the metal purity mark "750" (indicating 18K gold), and a unique serial number engraved on the small tag near the clasp. Our listing photos show the specific stamps present on this piece.
Q: What condition should I expect and what is included? A: This bracelet is in Very Good Condition, showing minimal signs of wear consistent with careful vintage use. It comes with its original Cartier box. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
