Design collaboration between Cartier and Dinh Van "Circle and Chain" 18K gold brooch. Hallmarked with "Cartier 18K" and "DINH VAN".

Jean Dinh Van was a French-Vietnamese designer who first made a name for himself in the mid-1950s as a designer at Cartier. After a decade with the house, working alongside then-creative director Jeanne Toussaint, Dinh Van opened his own studio in Paris in 1965.

In 1965, Dinh Van was the first brand to use minimalism in jewelry design, thereby making its mark as a design-inspired jeweler as opposed to its peers from la Place Vendôme, who draw their collections from the fauna and flora.

Always remaining true to its origins, Dinh van jewelry combines design and form purity. Over 50 years after its launch, Dinh van jewelry remains timeless and modern.
