Cartier

Creation date: 1847

Historic Maisons, Partner

Creator of exceptional pieces, Cartier evokes both prestigious jewellery and high class watch-making in the eyes of the general public. The brand has skilfully set the scene for two worlds since 1847 – feminine and masculine – with audacity and avant-gardism. Nicknamed "jeweller of kings and king of jewellers", the house is a past master of bringing icons to life. Its original and fashionable pieces achieve success with almost insolent ease.

Recently, the FHH - Fondation Haute Horlogerie had the privilege of visiting Cartier's manufacture and Maison des Métiers d'Arts. This visit offered us a deeper understanding of our partnerships with brands like Cartier, who are at the forefront of watchmaking. We were captivated by the perfect blend of technical skill and artistic expression in creating exceptional products. Seeing Cartier's innovative technology and artisanal craftsmanship up close provided a clear view into the essence of fine watchmaking.
