For over a century, Cartier has stood as a symbol of luxury, elegance, and exceptional craftsmanship. Founded in 1847
Cartier's journey began in a small workshop on Rue Montorgueil in Paris. With a passion for creativity and innovation, Louis-François Cartier established a reputation for creating finely crafted pieces that combined artistry with precision. By 1856, the brand had already attracted the attention of Princess Mathilde, cousin of Napoleon III, solidifying its position as a purveyor of luxury goods.
Cartier soon became known as the "Jeweler of Kings and the King of Jewelers", a title earned through its long-standing relationship with royal families. One of its most iconic designs, the Santos de Cartier1904Cartier Tank, inspired by military tanks during World War I, remains a classic design to this day.
