Aldo found himself in the middle of a heated breakup with his former love interest, and at 3 am, he came up with the idea of creating a piece of jewellery that symbolises the idea of everlasting love. He wanted a bracelet that could not easily be taken on or off. Aldo believed that love is special and should be seen as a permanent thing, and that is exactly what the Love bracelet has come to represent.  

The design of the Love bracelet

“The design of the accessory is what makes the bracelet popular. It’s said that it’s inspired by a chastity belt and that you can’t get it off without using a screwdriver. Some may say that the design is too simple, but it is just a plain oval band. The screwhead motifs in the band give a clever nod to the Santos watch.”
