Cartier panthere, bulgari serpenti, or Kelly bracelet?

[SDC2003]

I like the Bulgari and Kelly for stacking. I have tried on the Bulgari bracelet with full diamonds and one with just diamonds on the head/tail. The all diamond one was too much and I felt like the design just got lost with all of the bling. I have a diamond CDC Hermès and love how it pairs with the Love, JUC and the Kelly. The Kelly diamond and Bulgari are on my wishlist.
I tried on the panthere and it’s lovelyjust not something you’d want to stack. it really makes a statement on its own. I have the panthere ring and the onyx has held up but does have a chip in the nose. It’s also super scratched up on the bottom.

I agree you really have to try them on.
here are pics of my ring after wearing a lot. Even the top is scratched but perhaps a bracelet would scratch less on top.

Your rings is beautiful! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I love the serpenti full diamond too but yes wonder if it is a bit much. I would jump on the kelly diamond only if it had more carats for that price point. I like the design but for the price I could get so much more diamond getting something else elsewhere.

So unfortunately I don't own either so I can't be much help there but just aesthetically speaking my personal opinion is the kelly doesn't bring much to the table. It is nice for stacking, yes, but not for that price point.

I would say either the Bulgari or panthere. But realistically if you want to wear it all the time like your other ones the Bulgari would blend in and compliment everything seamlessly. The panthere needs to be displayed by itself. Maybe I'm biased toward cartier but it's such a stunning piece that needs to be showcased and not stacked.
The Bulgari piece is also beautiful but it works well for stacking! And i don't think mixing white gold with your current yellow gold should be a problem. It could work very nicely together and it won't be that problematic anyway since the diamonds on both bracelets have a white element to them

Thank you for your thoughts! I had thought about stacking after seeing this photo on ig but maybe it is a bit much. The thing I like about this bracelet is it is thinner than the other panthere bangles. But given it is lacquer I agree it is better to wear the panthere alone.

Yes yes so seeing your stack confirms how I feel. Definitely the bulgari and I love the idea of white gold to break it up a little bit. I am a yellow gold girl but I think it’s nice to break up thicker yellow stacks with some white metal. That’s if your doing full pave. Which is my vote. If you were going to do only partial then I would maybe stick to the gold color of your stack.

Thank you for your thoughts!

The Panthère is GORGEOUS!!

Agree absolutely! I saw this on this instagrammer and just fell in love.

Have you thought about buying it pre-loved? I saw a new one for sale on maisondeluxe brand new for less than retail. I saw one on fashionphile too

I think the bulgari would make a nice addition. What do you think about white gold with these?

Agree with you re the Bulgari in full pave with your current stack as per the rationale of @goodcrush above.
Also prefer the larger head panther, but worn alone. Am not as fond of the panther stacked in the two Instagram pics above.

Ahh I think I have seen this somewhere before. I am not sure I like the design. It seems like one looks more like a juc but it looks unfinished and with both I’m not so sure I like the design of the panthers head. Hopefully what is actually released will be a bit more finished or different! I really like the classic big panther head. I really wish the panther was more like some of the rings with a rounder head and with diamonds on the head and ont he body but spaced out so it’s not as pricey as the other designs. Thank you for sharing!

Exactly.

Yes, these are the thicker ones which should be worn alone. The new one(?) should fit better in / to a stack.

p.s. just checked the China website. Nothing new there, too

My only concern of stacking is the onyx nose

 

[scheurin]

No, it wouldn't be affected as it doesn't touch anything. All fine here

 

[scheurin]

Just see here. No real danger.

No but mainly because I am still wary of authenticity even when it’s a reputable site because even those sites can get it wrong. But if there was a receipt or other evidence I would consider it!

Thanks all for the feedback. I will need to visit the boutiques. I think I will also try the Cartier enticelle and vca clover. The enticelle has a simple design but think it is still beautiful. The clover has always been at the back of my mind along with the single row diamond Perlee but I don’t think either would stack well with the t bangle. Perhaps I just wear the t on my other wrist. And I’ve gone back and forth with the Tiffany metro bangle. So many options! I’ll just have to see which makes my heart beat the fastest.

The metro is beautiful

Seeing this photo slightly sways my previous opinion It is also gorgeous for stacking. Amateur question but why does the lacquer aspect of the bracelet pose an issue for stacking?
