As we move closer to the festive season, wishlist-building becomes a serious affair. Whether you're curating a wishboard, planning a meaningful investment piece, or simply indulging in a little jewellery daydreaming, Cartier has once again delivered with updates to its iconic Juste Un Clou collection. Originally launched in the 1970s, Juste Un Clou remains one of Cartier's most recognisable designs.
Cartier Juste Un Clou Bracelet & Necklace: A New Kind of Sparkle
The Juste Un Clou bracelet and necklace in the small model are now reimagined with a higher diamond carat weight and a refined reverse (inverted) diamond setting. Unlike traditional pavé, the diamonds are set upside down, allowing more light to enter the stone. The result? A noticeably stronger sparkle and diamonds that appear visually larger — a clever technical update that enhances brilliance without altering the iconic silhouette. This inverted diamond setting has been applied to both the bracelet and the torque necklace. That said, on a personal note — and perhaps I'm in the minority here — when it comes to such iconic designs, I still gravitate towards plain gold versions, especially for full pavé styles. There's something timeless about letting the design speak for itself, without additional embellishment. But for those who love maximum sparkle, these new diamond-forward Juste Un Clou pieces will feel irresistible.

Cartier Juste Un Clou Ear Cuff: Long Overdue, Perfectly Executed
Another exciting addition to the collection is the Cartier Juste Un Clou ear cuff — and honestly, it's surprising it didn't arrive sooner. With ear cuffs firmly established across major jewellery houses, Cartier's interpretation feels both current and unmistakably Cartier. Available in three gold colours, the ear cuff is beautifully engineered, feeling extremely secure once worn. It's one of those rare pieces that works for both camps: for those who love layering and stacking, it integrates seamlessly; for minimalists, it stands confidently on its own, drawing attention without trying too hard.
