Cartier Milestone Celebrations

[LHLarsen]

Hi! Last summer I received my first piece of Cartier jewelry, a classic Trinity ring to celebrate some special milestones. I thought it would be nice to share our special stories. Here is mine:

My best friend from college gave it to me my ring as a birthday gift. Neither of us have a sister and both of our mothers recently died, so we are like sisters. I chose the three ring piece to celebrate my three children, my three decades of marriage and my three decades of sobriety. When I look at it, I think of all of these wonderful things and of course, my dear friend.

What milestone did your Cartier piece mark?

That's such a meaningful and special gift!
I'm sorry for the loss of your mom

That's so lovely and that's as it should be.

My lucky numbers are 3, 6, 9 (and 33) so I always wear 3 Trinity at once.

One of my Trinity rings is the same as my mother always wore (LM) sadly she passed 2018. Whatever else I wear it seems that that's the ring people notice most. She had other jewellery, but that's the one she wore.

What a wonderful idea for a thread. I have 2 Cartier pieces commemorating milestones. The first is a small Tank Francaise. My parents saved up and surprised me with it for my graduation from university back in 2001. They are immigrants and I was first in my family to go to university. My mom passed a year later from cancer. I will treasure it always.

Second was a gift from me to me last month, a large D’Amour necklace, for successfully completing a huge project at work that I stressed about for 2 years.

Looking forward to seeing everyone else’s pieces!

So you need to shoot for 33

My Trinity ring was bought for my first Mother’s Day, as a symbol of always being entwined as a family. My Love bracelet symbolises my first year as a mother and everything we went through to get here (IVF and uncertainty around my sons health as well as just the general life changing experience of parenthood).

When I went to buy the bracelet l, the SA told me his two Loves represented his mum and dad, which I just love too.

My love bracelet to myself for a birthday milestone + a big promotion and raise.

My Panthere watch from my husband for our wedding anniversary.

@LHLarsen Sorry for your loss and a meaningful thread to start.

I’ve been gifted jewelry and generally I’m not a very attached person to jewelry (or most things in general ). I celebrate life as it is and do not really wait for special events to mark them. But I’d say the milestone would be my Cartier Love bracelet that I bought for myself not too long ago, which kinda started my fine jewelry buys.

My mother bought me a white gold love wedding band to celebrate my college graduation in 2021.

I bought myself the white gold clash ring and yellow gold love wedding band to mark my moving to nyc by myself for the first time and leaving a toxic situation.

I bought my Cartier panthere for my half birthday. I needed a reason to celebrate

When I bought my trinity ring, it was after my husband passed away (a year and a half ago), so I purchased it to represent our family - my husband, myself and our daughter. My husband used to always say that we were "a little family." That really resonated with me, especially after he passed, so I thought the trinity ring would accurately represent that. I'm giving my daughter my trinity cord bracelet for the same meaning for her.

My parents bought me my first two pieces. I received the love ring as a gift for graduating high school, and the love bracelet for graduating university. My 3rd piece is the small JUC bracelet and I actually purchased it myself after receiving a bonus from work for my birthday.
