Since 1847, the Maison Cartier has been synonymous with beauty, excellence, creativity and a unique savoir-faire. From its jewelry tradition, the Maison has blossomed into the inventor of an iconic and universal style while constantly pioneering new ground. Like a wave in motion, light echoes through a diamond illuminating brilliance and lighting its fire. A modern day masterpiece takes form in an infinite rhythm of precious materials and exquisite gems. Introducing the new Cartier High Jewelry collection, Résonances de Cartier.

Throughout its history, Cartier has determined the fates of exquisite gems. Diamonds such as the Williamson, the Hope and the Tereshchenko have been cast as the starring role in masterful works of style and light. Colored, fiery or magnificent, all are stones with a storied past. In honoring their eternal beauty, Cartier has changed the course of history for these legendary gems.
