Cartier
For its extraordinary range of bracelets, watches, rings and other adornments, French luxury house Cartier is undeniably one of the most well known and internationally revered jewelers in the world among clients both existing and aspirational.
Perhaps 1847 was not the ideal time to open a new watchmaking and jewelry business, as the French Revolution was not kind to the aristocracy who could afford such luxuries. Nevertheless, it was the year Louis-François Cartier (1819–1904) — who was born into poverty — founded his eponymous empire, assuming control of the workshop of watchmaker Adolphe Picard, under whom he had previously been employed as an assistant. Of course, in the beginning, it was a relatively modest affair, but by the late 1850s, Cartier had its first royal client, Princess Mathilde Bonaparte, niece of Napoleon Bonaparte, who commissioned the jeweler to design brooches, earrings and other accessories.
Under the leadership of Louis-François’s son, Alfred, who took over in 1874, business boomed. Royalty around the world wore Cartier pieces, including Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, the Maharaja of Patiala and King Edward VII, who had 27 tiaras made by the jewelry house for his coronation in 1902 and issued Cartier a royal warrant in 1904. (Today, the British royal family still dons Cartier pieces; Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, regularly sports a Ballon Bleu de Cartier watch.)
Cartier’s golden years, however, began when Alfred introduced his three sons, Louis, Pierre and Jacques, to the business. The brothers expanded Cartier globally: Louis reigned in Paris, Pierre in New York and Jacques in London, ensuring their brand’s consistency at their branches across the world. The trio also brought in such talents as Charles Jacqueau and Jeanne Toussaint.
One of Cartier’s earliest major successes was the Santos de Cartier watch — one of the world's first modern wristwatches for men. (Previously, a large number of people were using only pocket watches.) Louis designed the timepiece in 1904 for his friend, popular Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, who wanted to be able to check the time more easily while flying.
Cartier’s other famous timepieces include the Tank watch, which was inspired by the linear form of military tanks during World War I, and the so-called mystery clocks. Invented by watchmaker and magician Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin and later crafted exclusively for Cartier in the house’s workshop by watchmaker Maurice Couët, the mystery clocks were so named because the integration of glass dials on which the clocks’ hands would seemingly float as well as structures that are hidden away within the base give the illusion that they operate without machinery.
On the jewelry side of the business, Cartier’s internationally renowned offerings include the Tutti Frutti collection, which featured colorful carved gemstones inspired by Jacques’s trip to India and grew in popularity during the Art Deco years; the panthère motif, which has been incorporated into everything from brooches to rings; and the Love bracelet, a minimal, modernist locking bangle inspired by medieval chastity belts that transformed fine jewelry.
While the Cartier family sold the business following the death of Pierre in 1964, the brand continues to innovate today, renewing old hits and creating new masterpieces.

Cartier The move to the rue de la Paix coincided with a period of extraordinary economic growth and affluence in France and the world. Cartier was also growing and expanding and had started to shift their emphasis from retailing to design and manufacture. Although they produced a small number of pieces in the Art Nouveau style, Cartier paid scant attention to the movement. They made their distinguishing mark in pioneering the use of platinum in creating the delicate and graceful Garland style that came to be associated with the Belle Époque. The discovery of the great diamond deposits in South Africa in the late 1860’s engendered the popularity of extravagant diamond jewelry. The technical advances in the manufacturing of platinum enabled designs of great intricacy, strength and flexibility such as found in the spectacular résille designs of Cartier. (See Edwardian Jewelry: 1901-1915). Cartier marked the beginning of the twentieth century by opening branches in London and New York, where their wealthiest and most dedicated clientele resided. The 1902 coronation of Edward VII occasioned a large number of commissions from England’s leading families. Records indicate that Cartier produced twenty-seven tiaras alone for the coronation and the event was instrumental in convincing the firm to seek a permanent presence in London. Indeed, by 1904 they had achieved their first of fifteen royal warrants being appointed official purveyor to the court of King Edward VII. The London branch came to thrive under the tutelage of Alfred’s youngest son, Jacques Cartier, establishing London based design and manufacturing workshops. Opening a Cartier store in New York was a natural progression as many of America’s wealthiest families and business magnates had been traveling to Paris for some time to purchase their jewels from Cartier. By 1906 Alfred had largely retired and Louis and his brother Pierre operated the Cartier business jointly. One of their first major decisions was to establish a New York presence and workshop in 1909 under the skilled direction of Pierre. Indicative of his business skills, Pierre famously secured Cartier’s present location, an elegant Beaux-Arts mansion at 653 Fifth Avenue, from industrialist Morton F. Plant in 1917. The building changed hands in exchange for $100 and a double strand of natural pearls, admired by Plant’s wife and valued at one million dollars, the asking price for the mansion. While the Fifth Avenue location remains priceless to the firm, when the pearls came up for auction in 1957, they fetched a mere $170,000. (From Lang's with thanks). Edwardian Jewelry This Period was during the King Edward VII, after whom this period of jewelry history is named, reigned over England for only nine years, yet the style of jewelry known as “Edwardian” was created roughly between 1890 and 1920. Edwardian-era rings tend to be larger, opulent pieces, and stacked ring designs were popular. The metal surfaces of the rings were often diamond-encrusted for additional shimmer. Each of these rings is a work of art, showcasing a bygone era of grace, elegance and the royalty the Edwardian era is named for. Guilloché This term is used in fine jewelry or objects de Vertu to enhance the appearance of boxes, frames, brooches, rings or pendants. Guilloché enamel refers to metal pieces that have been given the Guilloché treatment and then covered with a translucent layer of enamel, giving the geometric patterns underneath the enamel a colorful hue. Millegrain This is a jewelry technique which refers to the textural effect of a close-set line of metal beads that are typically used as a border on the edges or bezels of jewelry.

- Ambrosi Emerald and Diamond Flower Necklace in 18kt White GoldBy AmbrosiLocated in New York, NYA bib necklace is a form as old as the Ancient Egyptian pharaohs that has cycled in and out of fashion throughout history, not so coincidentally coinciding with the Egyptian Revival (1880-1930) which was one of the many classical and exotic styles used in Art Nouveau (1890–1914) and Art Deco (1920s and 1930s) jewelry. This splendid De Ambrosi Emerald Diamond Bib Necklace, made in Italy in the 21st century, juxtaposes verdant floral motifs with fluid and dynamic sparkling halos. The necklace features green emeralds with an estimated total weight of 15.94 carats set in 18K yellow gold and diamonds with an estimated total weight of 10.13 carats set in 18K white gold. The gemstones are of excellent quality with the emeralds displaying a bright green color and very good clarity, and the diamonds equivalent to G-H color and VVS-VS clarity. The necklace is Signed Ambrosi 2355. The styling of the necklace is feminine and delicate, paying homage to Art Nouveau, with forms referencing the natural world. Green flowers comprised of four pear-shape emeralds float within custom-shaped diamond pavé surrounds that transform from flowers to bows to butterflies at each glance. The emerald “petals” are angled gently upward as if in the process of blooming before our eyes, and a proliferation of warm gold prongs form their floral centers. Nine emerald flowers graduate in size from back to front with the three at center front linked to an additional three charming flowers of various orientations and sizes. This flourish composes the characteristic bib of the bib necklace which is wider at the front and tapered at the back around the neck. The necklace measures 16 inches (40.64 cm) on the inner circumference and has about a 2-inch drop (5.08 cm) in the front. The artistry and craftsmanship of this tour-de-force piece sings, with both rounded and pointed forms sparkling brighter due to custom cutouts behind the stones—a technique known as azuring. Toward the back of the necklace are an additional 14 diamond halos, unfilled with emeralds and exquisite on their own, with a 15th dangling from a sizeable round brilliant-cut diamond adorning the hidden clasp. De Ambrosi was established in 1949 by Remo Deambrosi in Valenza, Provincia di Alessandria, Piedmont. The Italian jewelry house was highly successful and in just half a century it was renowned for its superior craftsmanship and ability to capture light dancing on gemstones. Emerald, known as the “Jewel of Kings” signifies abundance, prosperity, and growth within all aspects of life. Rare and beautiful, emerald's stunning green color has also brought it an honored status amongst cultures worldwide, since the times of Cleopatra when they were considered sacred symbols of fertility and immortality.
