One of the world’s premier luxury jewelers since the nineteenth century, Cartier evokes a world of artistry and beauty, a legacy of unparalleled prestige. By 1909, Cartier became the first international jeweler of its time, with boutiques in Paris, London, and New York, and held warrants as an official supplier to numerous royal courts.
