Mythic story of the Cartier Trinity ring (1924 - 2024)

Sharing a chapter from the history of Cartier: The Trinity Story.
It started as "a dream about the rings around the planet Saturn" and with time this iconic ring evolved to become a treasured gift of friendship and love. The Trinity ring spawned an entire collection of jewelry and watches enjoyed by generations, and this year Cartier boutiques celebrate the 100th anniversary and story of this forever ring.
The Trinity Story provided to Cartier boutique managers and staff in the 1990's. (Reproduced here in original size for reading.)
Cartier Classic
Three gleaming bands of gold roll into place as the ring glides down your finger. There have been many versions of Trinity styled over the past century, and every version has been designed with the same iconic quality. Hallmarks have changed from "Cartier Paris" engraved on the inside of antique bands to "les must de Cartier' engraved on the exterior of the rings from the 1970's and 80's, and finally, the "Cartier" signature that we now see carved onto the profile of current Trinity ring models.
