Joined the 'Cartier Trinity Club' on my first Mother's Day!

[Dandi]

Hi all! I just wanted to share my gift for my first ever Mother's Day with you all! I've been wanting a heavyish rolling ring in 14k or 18k for a while now, and due to the abhorrent prices here in Australia ($900... for 9ct gold ) I started casually scouring eBay.

I won this one for a great price, about half the price of the one I was quoted locally, but of course this is 18ct! And the cute red Cartier box wasn't a bad bonus I wasn't specifically after a Cartier, but it was priced similiarly to a non branded band of the same carat anyway, so why not?! I also like the symbolism of the three bands for myself, my husband and our beautiful 5 month old baby boy. It's the 'le must de Cartier' one, I actually really like the engraving.

I wear it as a RHR, though sometimes if I'm out running errands and/or don't feel like wearing my wedding set, I love to wear it on my left ring finger stacked with my eternity band. I have to be very careful though as it's a tad big on that hand, especially now that the weather is getting cold!
Happy Belated Mother's Day, mummies!!

Dandi that looks amazing with your eternity band! I have been scouring ebay for one in my size as well. Great find, looks to be in wonderful condition and I like the "le must" branding logo. Happy 1st Mothers Day! Your son is adorable

That looks absolutely fantastic on you!

Your collection is one of my absolute favorites on PS. It may not have the biggest rocks of all time (but not shabby either!) but you just have exquisite taste in my opinion.

Congrats on such a great Mother's Day gift! It will always be a sweet reminder of your extra special first one.
I have bought a few Cartier rolling rings on Ebay and I agree that there are great deals to be had if you wait for the right one to come along. Love when the original box is included.. just icing on the cake!
I think the ring looks great stacked with your diamond band.. in fact I have very similar rings and that's what I am going to wear tomorrow.. thanks for the idea!
Enjoy!! Happy belated Mother's Day!

Rosebloom, thank you so much, that was such a lovely thing to say! I'm totally flattered, especially coming from someone with such an amazing collection as yourself!! Are you still loving that delicious 5 stone AVC?!

Thanks Rubies! I do love me a good stack, and you're welcome!! Hehe Dandiruby, you're a crackup!! Your stack looks sensational!!!!

Ooh JaneSmith, are you on the lookout for one too?? How exciting!! I hope you find exactly what you're after!

Re: Joined the 'Cartier Trinity Club' on my first Mother's D

Gorgeous!!! Such a classic piece
Do you often wear it with your eternity? They're both substantial pieces! Lucky you, to have that sort of finger real-estate


Congrats on your first Mother's Day!!

Re: Joined the 'Cartier Trinity Club' on my first Mother's D

Thanks luv2sparkle! I hope so too!

Hiya Zestfully!! Thanks lovie!!

Thank you Yssie!! I've just been busy admiring your incredible new WF acquisition! I do usually wear them stacked together, I love the look!! Although just on my left hand, the stack is a tad snug on my right hand. I know, woe is moi

Re: Joined the 'Cartier Trinity Club' on my first Mother's D

Gorgeous Dandi,

Absolutely love them together, and you can certainly pull it off. Just curious, did you purchase from OS on ebay, as you mentioned how
expensive it is to purchase here. Don't we know it!!!!! I have been looking too, always been a favourite. If you did purchase from
OS, how long did it take to get here. Typical when I start looking the dollar is going down

 

[Dandi]

Re: Joined the 'Cartier Trinity Club' on my first Mother's D

Hiya Monny!! I did buy it from eBay, the seller is actually in Japan. I thought it would take ages but it ended up being less than two weeks. Admittedly I was pretty lucky and snagged it when the AUD was just about at its strongest. Better nab one ASAP before the dollar gets any worse!! Actually I just really want to see pictures of one stacked with your beautiful band
