There has been a personal connection and also an economical advantage between Cartier and Cocteau on the base of artistic appreciation of both to one another. As a surrealist artist Cocteau inspired Cartier and spread the company‘s attention with the his fame and art. For his movie „Beauty and the beast“ he used Cartier‘s Diamonds for the scene, Bella‘s tears are transformed into precious stones. So Cocteau also was connected to a lavish brand that seemed to have no borders. When Cocteau became a member of the Legion of Honor, he designed a sword with a handle in the shape of Orpheus. It was made by Cartier from precious materials with a breathtaking craftsmanship. Last but not least: Cocteau and Jean Marais (the actor who played the beast in his movie) were a couple for two and a half decades and stayed afterwards friends. There are different versions of the legend of the Trinity Ring. Some people say Cocteau designed the ring for his lover and Cartier made it for him, others say Cocteau gave just the order and liked the idea that was designed by Cartier. Francesca Cartier Brickel has a different legend to offer in her book about her famous ancestors,“The Cartiers“: Cocteau’s lover, the young novelist Raymond Radiguet has died of tuberculosis. After a legend Cocteau had a dream, maybe under the influence of opium, he was addicted to, of the rings of Saturn. He was triggered to the idea of something huge and universal on his pinky finger. Some people also believe, that Cocteau designed the ring for Radiguet shortly before his death in 1923 and had been intended as a love gift that was produced too late. So Cocteau wore two of them as a memory for himself and Radiguet. Nevertheless the design developed from an individual commission to a signature piece after members of the elite in Paris, international aristocracy and socialites coveted this piece of luxury, romantic expression and sophistication very soon. The idea of three intertwined rings had it’s origins in the celtic culture, but Cocteau made it a world wide success. It also became a tiny identifying code of homosexual men in times when revealing this part of an identity could be much more dangerous than today. For me it’s a brilliant combination of a signature product that it is connected to a Company and a piece of jewelry that can have a spiritual and emotional meaning, everybody can define individually a combination of three important qualities to it. Whether it is original Love, friendship and fidelity, or the three Cartier brothers, preconscious, conscious and subconscious, (the levels through which surrealist artists travel more intentionally than others) the third wedding anniversary, the birth of a third child or countless other feelings that are associated with it. With it’s simplicity, ignoring borders of combining different gold alloys, the elegantly playful haptic of rolling the interlocking rings on the finger and it’s subtle recognition factor makes it to one of the most ingenious designs in jewelry of the 20th century.

Did anyone see that monster in that guys pant 🥸😱

I was just thinking the same thing. Why does he say Cartier like that? You’re forcing it so hard it sounds stupid
