While watching this video, my husband walked by and said, “Turn that Australian woman off! She’s a bad influence!” just because the first of your videos I watched convinced me to buy my Fendi mini Peekaboo in the Selleria leather, another video caused me to buy a linen dress at the beginning of winter, and a third video alerted me to the dropping of Fendi’s sequin Baguettes (my rose gold mini arrived yesterday 😍). I don’t see a problem 🤷🏻♀️😆
Wow, I truly love this video. I actually think the last bangle is so pretty with little fleur-de-lis. Gorgeous! Heck you could buy two and still save money. Lol.
I love the design and the story behind the love bracelet... that said, my husband gifted me one five years ago (and I haven't removed it since!). While the price was by no means "cheap" it was over $1K USD less than the current price. I really like the Chaumet Bee My Love bangle!
Great video, I like to personalize my jewelry. I have a huge 18k gold buckle bracelet with tassels and diamonds. No one else has this bracelet. I like to be unique.
I watched this but didn’t leave a comment, I’ve always worn silver jewelry i see the value in fine jewelry but ive just never cared that much i find beautiful silver pieces that are usually less than 100$🦋🖤🦋🦇 i like the bangle with the roman numerals! The love and nail bracelets seem so common despite being so expensive!
Never liked Cartier Love bangle, hate the screw tops on it - why would I pay so much for something that reminds me of hardware stores? I do love the Verlas Le Fleur one, it's gorgeous! Thanks Dayle for these recommendations.
Just watched it Dayle thank you - I love the Verlas it looks really pretty, I will pop into Canturi to see the Eternal bangle and the Be My Love looks a little more unique. Such a fun video and I really appreciate you doing this one for me. 💕
Thanks for the question Susan! I just realised, we’ll have to pay duties on Verlas, I need to investigate it further now. Those duties on my recent L’Afshar bag stung 😫
@@DaylesAddiction that’s ok. I like your point of staying within Australia 🌸 plus Canturi looks lovely as well as the Bee My Love. We pay a lot of duties here 😢
A year after your video I finally bought a Verlas bangle! I prefer 14k yellow gold so I got it in that. I waited for the Black Friday 30% off AND I got 12% cash back from Rakuten. No more jewelry for me now until next year’s Black Friday!
I am a girl that was raised in the 70’s and Love bracelet was a life long want. I didn’t get one until my 60th bday. I’m not sorry, everytime I look at it I am happy, I can’t believe it’s mine. I am very interested in the Varlas bangle
Very interesting video, thank you, Dayle. Just goes to show how the name on a box influences the price! I used to date a man who was a director of a London based firm who made beautiful jewellery for the retail sector, and back then (not sure if it's still the case) all new pieces were marked up by 300% at retail!!! Ever since; If I'm looking for something for myself, I always check out preloved first - you can find dome beautiful pieces and save a fortune! 👌🏻💜
Great comparison video. I love bangles and do own two Cartier bracelets. I’m loving Cantori(sp?). I’m loving that black sapphire touch, just lovely. ❤️
Great subject. And difficult to find information. The Weight in grams is not discussed on many websites It’s very deceiving because one love bracelet that is a small is going to weigh differently than a love bracelet that is large. Obviously this transfers to rings as well.
Yes they are purposefully vague I believe in terms of the specifications- I believe because who is buying fine jewelry online? People who probably aren’t asking those questions right?
You should definitely look into a brand called Roberto Coin too. They're an Italian brand, and their Love in Verona bangles are so beautiful and are actually a really reasonable price. Their Pois Moi collections is another good alternative..
Dayle - I went to Canturi yesterday the Eternal was amazing, the weight of it was definitely more substantial. The Bee My love was quiet light on the wrist as was the Roberto Coin, it didn’t feel as weighty. Definitely very interesting 🧚♀️
Thanks for sharing all of those alternatives I actually talked about the Bee My Love on my most recent 2022 Wishlist video as I really want to add something in that collection this year. It’s so pretty and I don’t think many people know about the brand in Aus
Got to love a spreadsheet!! I have no desire to own any Cartier. The Canturi and Verlas bangles look lovely, good to see something different. If you do buy the Verlas I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
what did you end up purchasing? While I happily shell out the cash for luxury handbags, I just can’t bring myself to purchase luxury brand jewelry. I Like the look of the Love, but prefer a bangle that I can put on and take off easily. I also prefer the round shape to the oval shape. I shopped around for a jeweler and found one that was reasonably priced. He used the gold from two thin 22kt gold bangles that I outgrew to make one flat edge thick round hinged bangle. It turned out perfect! He only charged me $750usd for labor. He actually asked me if I wanted him to etch the Cartier screw symbol in it but I declined as I love the look without any branding. Gold, itself, is a luxury so I am content with my “plain” bangle. I’m thinking I’ll have another one made in rose gold but with diamonds.
I haven’t bought one yet - maybe that’s because I’m not convinced. I discovered that the exchange, duties and shipping for Verlas wasn’t worthwhile and I’m still looking at the Canturi options (I’d like a matte finish instead of shiny). I love the outcome you got with your own jeweler - far more luxurious!
Good luck to you! My vote is for something non Cartier. I’ve seen the love bangle so much..not just on social media but everywhere I go. It’s a nice design, but I’m of the mindset that jewelry should be unique and an expression of personal style. That Australian brand you mentioned has some gorgeous and unique pieces. If I saw someone wearing that particular bangle in your video, I’d definitely take notice and would probably compliment them on it.
I had a friend who was a manufacturing jeweller, he made beautifully designed jewellery & repaired many items. His main point with gold of any colour (except welsh gold which has a slightly different composition & can be ruined up if the jeweller doesn’t know how to handle). 18ct gold is very soft, scratches easily & not hard wearing for everyday use, if you want yr bangle to last much longer 14ct or 9ct is better (not to mention cheaper), plus you can add diamonds or other precious gems. Having said all of the above I have my Mum’s 22ct YG wedding ring/ band that I refuse to wear as it’s too big for me & I’m scared of damaging. I personally prefer bracelets which are a little more forgiving on the arm. All the alternatives are beautiful just not my cup of tea. TVM Dayle for all yr hard work. My goodness an excel spreadsheet for bangles, that is dedication to your channel & followers.🌸🌺🌸
Thanks for sharing great discussion. It's good to check around and see what's out there. Cartier might be what you want in the end or something completely unexpected :)
Loved this video! ~ I’m definitely a lover and owner of the gold love ring & bangle since owning them last year. I do enjoy when you have to eat your words moments also lol 😂
Great idea video!! 👏🏼 to give us other options if we want to be a bit more unique and still feel fabulous in luxury!! ✨💃🏻 This is right up my alley 😂 My favs, Bvlgari & the Australian brand 🤍 I love how you always support your country that by the looks is SO SPECIAL! Loyalty ☝🏼😍 btw, I always trip watching you w/the same D necklace I HAVE! 🙀😍💓💓💓💓😘
Good subject… great analysis… but I think if you are planning on wearing it daily and not taking it off, mine are all 14k and the ones I really care about I wear on my left hand because you are less likely to scratch them… 18k I would not personally do except in rose gold because I would not wear rose as frequently… these are just my thoughts!
I wish you have included “ Roberto Coin “which is an Italian brand that have beautiful collections . Their “ love In Verona “ bangles are just stunning especially the one with diamonds and they are cheaper than Cartier . The quality is wonderful
Yes I did look into these but as they weren’t comparable due to the diamonds it didn’t make sense. Potentially I can do a second video which are just beautiful bangles regardless of their specifications
Wow never heard of Verla, it is true is a similitude to the Cartier Bracelet at a much lesser price....Thank you... I heard a lot of complaint about the Cartier Love Bracelet scrubs. I am seriously considering the Verlas as a gift for me, myself and I.
The verlas and chaumet one looks amazing! Great comparison Dayle and i'm looking for a Cartier Love bracelet too so this definitely came in handy. Have you also looked into the Cartier Love Cuff?
Thanks Lokie No I haven’t looked into any Cartier bangles before as i thought they were a bit too popular. This video was a request for like bangles but I’m going to do a follow up on my fine jewellery personal pics - no rules!
I am in love with the Canturi ring you are wearing in this video!!!!!! I am saving for that ring, there is nothing like it! It looks to me that you have the medium size. Not sure but the price is 12,300.00 dollars. I live in the US so less money maybe?
While all gorgeous options Dayle I do believe that you need to eat your words 😜 The LOVE is beautiful and iconic ❤️ I resisted the og Love for a while and since getting it I truly adore it ☺️ Please, I mean no disrespect by this as it’s just my opinion but the last one that you showed I honestly think I would feel like I was wearing a fake Cartier and it’s still a pretty penny however it was hard to see the details so I could be completely wrong 🤷🏼♀️ I do 100% agree on calling them bangles though 😉
Thank you so much for this video Dayle. It was wonderful to see the alternatives out there to the Love bangle. You chose some gorgeous pieces, of course, as you have such great taste in everything :) That Verlas bangle is beautiful and a great price. We do have T&C here . Whoppee So we do have one luxury brand though not handbags :( so I don't get out to look at other luxury jewellery stores either. T&C , though they have some beautiful pieces you are paying for the name unfortunately. Much love. Jenni from Adelaide. XX
The CDC is one of my faves; the ring is on my list! I've never heard of Verlas, their pieces are beautiful. Hard decision you have to make but it will be interesting to see where you finally get your bangle from.
Oooh can we see your 40th birthday ring? And what’s the story of the ring that was sawn off?! Do you have a video explains that? Loved this video and all the time and research you put into it!
Hi Monica There is a get ready with me vlog in around April 2020 where I talk about the ring and then I share my 40th ring in the November Birthday haul from 2020 ☺️
The Hermes CDC would be multi-functional, not solely decorative, but also serving a practical use when walking your dog. A Canturi jewel would always tempt me though. Maybe you could buy both?! Thank you for the video.
Thank you so much - yes it's pretty extraordinary like for like. Of course I don't have the weights of each piece as it's not disclosed but on price alone it's crazy.
I like the Tiffany Melody bangle design. I know Tiffany charge a premium price just for the brand….wish I came across similar designs at a lower price :)
I guess it's like paying extra for an architect designed home.... it is different, it is special and the concept and vision comes with a price - not just materials and execution.
The piece I've been looking at is the Hermes Mini Clous bracelet. I've never seen anyone on social media talk about it. It's not a full bangle though. It's a cuff bracelet. I'm not fond of the little ring that's flopping around the CDC bangle.
I personally would not buy 18 karats gold bangle it will not wear well , 14 karats has better longevity does not scratch as much . I have 2 no name bangles that I pretty much have worn for the past 20 years they do not look as beaten up as some of my friends love bracelet…I have to check Verlas love the flowers 🌸
I’m going to stop at “eat my words”. The most important thing is what is the total weight in grams. 18 karat yellow gold, rose gold or white gold all have a value that moves according to the world market. That weight matters more than anything, so when you’re comparing those bracelets you must have the weight. The interesting thing in my opinion is comparing a Cartier weight in gold to a Tiffany weight in gold to a David Yurman weight in gold. That is when you’re really paying for that Redbox. However when you’re on the border going into Poland and your pockets and hemlines are stuffed with Cartier gold you might have more leverage than if you have some unknown jewelry brand.
Yes Leslie - you’re right I think that they are purposely vague about this online as it’s not a marketplace where most serious jewellery buyers are shopping- they’re in boutique.
Hi Dayle, I want the Cartier LOVE and I have tried to talk myself out of it but I want it and hoping I get it this year. Finger's crossed. Excel spreadsheet...ok @AutumnBeckamn LOL

Wow, I truly love this video. I actually think the last bangle is so pretty with little fleur-de-lis. Gorgeous! Heck you could buy two and still save money. Lol.
Ha ha yes! I’m just checking on the duties payable with them …. Stay tuned!
Yes! Go for the Verlas bangle. It’s gorgeous, you can spend the saving on a new bag 🥳
The saving? 🤣🤣🤣
I’m really intrigued- one thing I just thought about is duties…. It would add about $1000 to the price putting me back to Canturi
I love Canturi too, I have one of their beautiful necklaces! I love the Verlas bangle with simple fleur pattern.
Canturi are just something special I think and especially so that they are Australian .
I love the design and the story behind the love bracelet... that said, my husband gifted me one five years ago (and I haven't removed it since!). While the price was by no means "cheap" it was over $1K USD less than the current price. I really like the Chaumet Bee My Love bangle!

Canturi does things just a little bit differently. I’m actually making some enquiries with them.
I have a Roberto Coin rose gold plain bangle that I adore.

The piece I've been looking at is the Hermes Mini Clous bracelet. I've never seen anyone on social media talk about it. It's not a full bangle though. It's a cuff bracelet. I'm not fond of the little ring that's flopping around the CDC bangle.
Yes I imagine that would get annoying after a while. I think cuffs are a different kettle of fish, there are many options do those too!
I personally would not buy 18 karats gold bangle it will not wear well , 14 karats has better longevity does not scratch as much .

Have you heard of Almasika? Small company in the US Berceau open cuff
No I haven't - I'll have to look it up!
Yay can’t wait to go into Cartier with you 💎💎💍💍
🤣🤣🤣
Oops! I forgot about international shipping and duties 🙈🙈🙈 anyway, loved all the suggestions. As always a great video Dayle!
Yeah I’m waiting to hear back from them Laura and see what it’s likely to cost ontop of the price, but still a great discovery!
Colier de Chien means dog collar
Yes I know, thank you! My pronunciation would have copped more clack than not saying it at all though 🤣🤣
I’m going to stop at “eat my words”. The most important thing is what is the total weight in grams. 18 karat yellow gold, rose gold or white gold all have a value that moves according to the world market. That weight matters more than anything, so when you’re comparing those bracelets you must have the weight. The interesting thing in my opinion is comparing a Cartier weight in gold to a Tiffany weight in gold to a David Yurman weight in gold. That is when you’re really paying for that Redbox. However when you’re on the border going into Poland and your pockets and hemlines are stuffed with Cartier gold you might have more leverage than if you have some unknown jewelry brand.
Yes Leslie - you’re right I think that they are purposely vague about this online as it’s not a marketplace where most serious jewellery buyers are shopping- they’re in boutique.
Actually, I expected the Tiffany bangle to be less than Cartier.
I know right! It was an interesting exercise!
they were bought out by LVMH hence the increased prices
@@notreallyhome oh yeah. The Arnault playbook
But you are not talking about how heavy the bangles are...cartier has more gram than chaume for example...
Correct, I didn’t have access to that information- the website is very minimal
In detail.
I think the last one just looks like a copy 🤷♀️
I agree, some ask you if it is Cartier. Then you have to say no, that would be embarrassing!
I can see how that might be the case. But the Roberto Coin bangles also look similar too.
No it's better? ha ha
