Living legacy
Living legacy
Cartier's commitment to heritage is inherent in its mission as a jeweller. Preserving, enhancing and transmitting are the principles that have guided the Maison for over a century and a half. A living heritage, which contributes to sustaining Cartier’s style and enhancing its High Jewellery creations.
Archives
Very early on, Cartier decided to systematically preserve the history of its productive activity. The Archives thus feature a unique and confidential collection where each creation is documented, from its design to its marketing. Guaranteed authenticity, key in the world of art.
The Cartier collection,
a medium for sharing
Created in 1983, the Cartier Collection now includes more than 3,000 pieces, from the very beginnings of the Maison to the early 2000s. They are all precious milestones that trace the creative history of Cartier and demonstrate the excellence of its savoir-faire. The Cartier Collection thus plays a significant role in passing down the Maison's style and culture, both to its designers and craftsmen and to the public through major museum exhibitions.
