Description Description

One of the world’s leading luxury jewellers since the 19th century, Cartier evokes a world of art and beauty, a legacy of unrivalled prestige. By 1909, Cartier was the leading international jeweller of its time, with boutiques in Paris, London and New York, and guaranteed official supplier to many royal courts. Cartier established a unique network based on an exceptional knowledge of the gemstone market and developed a revolutionary style that has proven timeless, a refined language that captures the ephemeral nature of each era, from sober restraint to enthusiastic opulence.

With its synthesis of technical skill and artistic sensibility, global perspective and exacting perfection, Cartier has ensured the continued loyalty of its clients and an enduring renown. Cartier's cosmopolitan clientele, made up of strong-willed women, refined aesthetes and intellectual minds, from Jean Cocteau to Alberto Santos-Dumont, from the Maharaja of Nawanagar to the Duchess of Windsor, from Gloria Swanson to Elizabeth Taylor, have served as catalysts for renewal and stylistic influences.

Complimentary white gloves and a signature canvas bag are included with every purchase of Assouline's Ultimate Collection.

About the brand

Assouline, where culture meets luxury It all began in 1993, when Martine and Prosper Assouline found themselves at the La Colombe d'Or hotel in France, one of their most beloved places in the world. As they experienced its beauty together, their curiosity about life and love of books inspired them to make their own tome about the hotel. Prosper took the photos, Martine wrote the text, and La Colombe D'Or became their first book, published in 1994. Today, every Assouline book continues to be created with the same union of talent and passion: Martine's editorial direction and Prosper's creative vision.
