What does the Cartier Trinity look like?
Designed by Louis Cartier in 1924, the Trinity ring intertwines three bands of yellow, white, and rose gold representing love, fidelity, and friendship. Authentic examples carry the Cartier signature, serial number, and three karat marks corresponding to the three metals on the inside of the central band.
About Cartier
Founded in Paris in 1847, Cartier maintains a precise system of maker's marks, serial numbers, and country-of-origin punches. Marks vary by workshop (Paris, London, New York) and by era, and are often paired with French assay marks (eagle head for gold, owl for imported pieces) and a unique serial number.
