Why the Juste un Clou is iconic
Cartier's Aldo Cipullo designed the Juste un Clou in 1971, reimagining an ordinary nail as a luxury bangle and ring, part of a wider 1970s movement toward industrial-inspired jewellery. Its bent-nail silhouette, with a textured head and pointed tip, has remained largely unchanged since its reissue in 2012.
Checking the price
The asking-price table above shows what partner retailers want for this model right now, by size where titles state one. Within a size, price is driven mostly by materials, condition and completeness (box, receipt, authenticity card).
Sizes & variants
Available as a hinged or full bangle, ring and earrings, in small, medium and large sizes, in yellow, white or rose gold, plain or diamond-set.
How to authenticate
- 1.Check for the Cartier signature, gold hallmark and individual serial number discreetly engraved on the inside of the bangle or ring shank.
- 2.Inspect the nail head and tip detailing for crisp, consistent texturing; genuine pieces show sharp, evenly spaced grooves.
- 3.Confirm the piece is solid gold rather than gold-plated by checking hallmark stamps, and request the original Cartier box and papers where possible.
Guidance only — always buy from sellers offering an authentication guarantee.
Buying a pre-owned Cartier Juste un Clou — FAQs
Does the bangle open or slide on?
Most Juste un Clou bangles are hinged and open via a screwdriver-adjusted clasp, though some full-cuff versions do not open.
Which size is most commonly resold?
The small and medium bangle sizes are the most frequently seen pre-owned, reflecting original sales volumes.
Is the diamond version worth significantly more?
Yes, diamond-set versions command a notable premium over plain gold due to stone value and lower production numbers.
