Cartier Tri-Color Gold and Diamond Ring

A vintage circa 1970s Cartier ring finished in tri-color (yellow, rose, and white) 18 karat gold in the style of the Vendome and Trinity Collections. This particular ring is accented by six diamonds, bead set across the top of the ring in the white gold portion. The ring features a high polish finish and is a dainty size 3.25.

 Cartier Trinity was created in 1924, allegedly at the behest of Jean Cocteau who was obsessed with the rings of Saturn and commissioned a tri-color rolling gold ring from his friend Louis Cartier. What resulted from that collaboration was a transcendentally elegant distillation of cosmic science, and this fixed band ring, as an alternative to the traditional Trinity rolling ring, is an even more pared down expression of Cocteau's original fascination. The trinity ring has since come to mean many things to many people; religiously minded individuals think first of the Holy Trinity, some think of three important people in their lives, and yet others use the design to mark anniversaries.
