10-year anniversary! Cartier Love vs. Van Cleef Alhambra

I have both. The VCA bracelet is more sensitive and i always take it off end of the day. The love bracelet is always on my wrist and have never taken it off. So as a first I would suggest going with the love bracelet. I will scratch for sure but that's part of the charm. You can get it polished after a while.
 
I have both. I’ve worn my Love daily since I got it almost 15 years ago for Xmas. The only time I didn’t wear it was when kiddos were babies and I was afraid of scratching their skin.
I love VCA but I don’t wear any of my Alhambra daily. It’s more delicate, esp. certain stones.

I like the matching idea! Cute! The Love is more appropriate for that. Happy 10th!
 
Thank you everyone for all your insights! :tup: Happy to update that hubby and I just picked up our engraved pieces yesterday! :happydance: I had excitedly booked an appointment way in advance of our summer anniversary anticipating there may be some delay…and lo and behold, I was super pleased to find out we also dodged a price increase!

After trying on several different variations in-store and deliberating for more than two hours, we opted for matching Love cuffs and rings! Very excited to debut them closer to our anniversary! :heart:

Being a Cartier newbie, I appreciated everyone’s input as I felt so knowledgeable going in the boutique for the very first time. Trying them on definitely revealed the clear winners. Thank you!

Congratulations and happy anniversary!

My partner and I have a few matching Cartier pieces and I love seeing them on him. He already has a JUC but I think he wouldn’t mind the LOVE cuff :graucho:
