Cartier History

Omega was founded in 1848 by Louis Brandt in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. Initially, it was a small workshop where Brandt assembled pocket watches from The story of Cartier begins in 1847 when Louis-François Cartier took over his master's jewelry workshop in Paris, France. Initially, Cartier focused on creating and selling exquisite jewelry pieces, establishing a reputation for craftsmanship and luxury. However, it was Louis-François's grandsons, Louis, Pierre, and Jacques, who truly propelled the brand to international fame. Under the guidance of the three Cartier brothers, the brand expanded its horizons and began creating lavish and innovative timepieces, alongside their jewelry collections.

Cartier's creations quickly gained popularity among European royalty, aristocrats, and wealthy individuals. The brand's reputation grew further as it became the preferred jeweler of many prominent figures, including King Edward VII of England, who referred to Cartier as "the jeweler of kings and the king of jewelers." Throughout the 20th century, Cartier continued to push boundaries with its innovative designs, incorporating influences from Art Nouveau, Art Deco, and other artistic movements. The brand expanded globally, opening boutiques in major cities around the world, including New York, London, and Shanghai. In addition to watches and jewelry, Cartier also excelled in creating luxurious accessories, such as pens, leather goods, and fragrances. The Cartier name became synonymous with luxury, style, and impeccable craftsmanship. Today, Cartier remains one of the world's most prestigious and influential luxury brands. The company continues to create exceptional timepieces, jewelry, and accessories, blending tradition with contemporary design. Cartier's iconic collections, such as the Tank, Ballon Bleu, and Love, continue to captivate and inspire discerning customers worldwide.
