If any of you have been watching QVC for the last million years you may recall that QVC did at one time offer Buccellati Diamonique versions of some of their pieces. Got a bracelet and a ring ..Dang, shouda,woulda coulda...ancient history.

Cartier does not do 14K. Only 18K  No silver.  Only platinum.  They have something called Pink Gold.  They have a certain mix of metals for this.  I'm not sure you can get the pink gold outside pf Cartier.  It's very pretty

Lisa Robertson used to refer to it as "that store with the name like a former president who was a peanut farmer...add a vowel."

Blame some immigrants with the name Cartier. It quickly became Carter.  But it existed thousands of years before as Cartier.  It actually became Anglicized as Carter in Scotland.  The name is derived from the Latin Carrum which means carrier.

I've noticed a lot of upscale retailers are just giving new names to rose, white and yellow gold and platinum to make them sound more exclusive.  I've heard strawberry, honey, vanilla and the list goes on.đź’ť

The proglem is rose gold.  Some people want a different kind of rose gold.  I like 18K rose gold.  I hate it in 14K.  This veron of it in 18K is very feminine

It is interesting that purse forum members say rose Cartier color get lighter in time, more yellow.

I looked up the Cartier love bracelet and it is $7,350 on their official website Smiley Surprised! I bet they don't even do Easy Pay Smiley Surprised.

Wow, that's a lot of money Smiley Very Happy
