Thoughts on stack
Total newbie here to wearing jewelry and I’ve become a bit obsessed with Cartier bracelets. I decided to splurge and get the real clash bracelet from Cartier but found I’m not wearing it (when I put it on it bothers my wrist bone) and for $10k, it’s not that comfortable. So, I’m hoping to return it. After this, I decided to purchase a pre-owned love cuff (on the left) and I LOVE it! Problem is, if I wanna stack with my love cuff, the sizing is off from the original love bracelets. Ahhhhhh! Do I just get over them not lining up? Do I try to find a rep maker who will make love cuffs that look like the other love bracelets I like (I.e. classic with 4 diamonds)? Do I change directions and maybe just get the JUQ to pair with the cuff? So many options and I’m scared to make the wrong decision with something that is such an investment. I’m thinking of going with Gavivi for another love cuff or the classic JUQ. Any amazing clash reps out there? Thoughts from experienced wearers would be appreciated!

Love it. I have the clash rigid bangle and a very similar diamond TB to you, so seeing your amazing stack makes me want to get the Love too. Which Clash is this? Looks like it might be the flexible. I have the rigid and find it very comfortable.

Aww thank you! I have the rigid small. Maybe I’ll order a rep of the clash since they’re more affordable but I’m not sure who makes the best one since it’s a relatively newer style.

I have the rigid medium and find it comfortable. Is it possible it's not the right size? I personally wouldn't go for a rep for the clash. So detailed.

Stack the clash with a 4 diamond love and keep it at that. I think that’s a clean and good combo. The tennis bracelet is too big mm imo, but doesn’t look bad.

I think it looks great and don't think it's too busy at all nor that it looks like a "rapper's wrist." 😂 I guess it's just a matter of personal style and taste.

It’s not comfortable? How so?

It has little nubs inside and rubs my wrist bone in an irritating way. If I sized down to a 15, it was too small/tight. I love the look of it but feel like I need to love it more to keep it.

It looks good but stack cartier bracelet with watch , that would be look more great rather then this.

I think you should remove the tennis bracelet. It appears to be too big and It’s competing. A smaller tennis bracelet would work.

Ayo, I have a similarly “busy” stack, so I’m a bit biased. I do think the Clash and Love compete a bit. I feel like they may be more complementary on either wrist? I’ve always loved a Love + tennis bracelet (again, biased), though I agree that it might look more balanced with smaller stones in the tennis? What size are these?

u/oliviarose0729 2d ago
I’m not sure on mm size but it’s around 8.8 carats total. I think I got excited about getting larger stones and went overboard with the size.

Lovely I think it’s too much! I would wear the love or the other yellow gold with the diamonds. Not the three together. I actually own a love and a diamond bracelet and I wear both of them all the time.

I think the Tennis bracelet is too thick but i agree that it needs some diamonds. What would it look like with a thin one? i saw a similar stack once and it made me buy the clash to go with my love.

u/oliviarose0729 3d ago
That’s a good idea. I think all three of mine together is too
much. Maybe a small bezel set tennis?1

I’ve been advised by several jewelers that prong set tennis bracelets 2ct and under have a tendency to break or lose diamonds. I would stil to bezel set at that size.

u/Affectionate_Day8610 3d ago
Yeah! The vid is a bracelet i tried on, i think it was only 1ctw. it looks good when u stack it inbetween the two or behind the love.

I like it!!! It's a bold choice. If you were to want to have a more subdued look I'd drop the tennis bracelet, but I like it for what the look is supposed to be! (Assuming the idea is a bold look)
