ALDO CIPULLO 18K GOLD DIAMOND JUSTE UN CLOU CIRCA 1970'S BRACELET

One of the most celebrated jewelry designers of the last century, Aldo Cipullo rose to fame at none other than the House of Cartier. Not only was A. Cipullo behind the iconic Cartier Love Bracelet, but he was also responsible for another famous Cartier jewelry creation: Juste Un Clou.

In addition to the Love bracelet, Aldo Cipullo also designed what would later be known as the Cartier Juste Un Clou collection. "Juste un clou" is French for "just a nail" in reference to the shape of the bracelet.

In fact, when A. Cipullo presented his industrial style jewelry, it was considered very avant-garde to use turn something as common as a nail into a precious high-jewelry piece. Due to Aldo Cipullo, everyday objects like screws, screwdrivers, and nails are now central motifs in Cartier jewelry.

Although Cartier only unveiled the Juste un Clou line in 2012, that collection is a reinterpretation of the A. Cipullo nail jewelry from the 1970s. During the launch party held at the flagship boutique on Fifth Ave, Cartier also hosted an exhibition called "Cartier & Aldo Cipullo; New York in the 1970 in his honor. Here we have a stunning example of an A. Cipullo Nail bracelet from 1971.
