The distinctive style of these Agrafe earrings
Cartier’s Agrafe collection draws its inspiration from the world of Parisian haute couture and transforms a hidden, utilitarian object into a sensual piece of jewellery. The central design echoes the shape of the fastenings that secured the corsets of elegant ladies. These second-hand stud earrings feature brilliant-cut diamonds totalling an estimated weight of 0.15 carats. The colourless stones reflect a vivid sparkle. The 18-carat white gold setting embodies a timeless aesthetic.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The structure comprises two intertwined elements forming a fluid, asymmetrical pattern. The solid upper loop interlocks with a partially pavé-set lower ring. The grain setting holds the diamonds in place with remarkable precision. The integration of the stones along the lower curve of the white gold creates a striking visual contrast. The Alpa mechanical clasp system with side push-buttons offers absolute security for everyday wear. The entire piece is fully polished, ensuring a perfectly reflective surface.
Why choose these pre-owned stud earrings

This piece offers direct access to the expertise of a historic House and an iconic design, whose substantial construction guarantees excellent durability over time. The positioning of this piece allows you to enjoy a prestigious signature and high-quality pavé setting whilst avoiding the costs associated with modern craftsmanship.
