Cartier is a French luxury jewelry and watch brand that was founded in Paris in 1847 by Louis-Francois Cartier. Originally a jewelry store, Cartier gained popularity with its exquisite designs and quality craftsmanship, eventually becoming the go-to jeweler for royalty and the wealthy elite.
One of Cartier's most iconic designs is the "Love" bracelet, which was introduced in 1969 and has since become a symbol of love and commitment. The bracelet is made of two halves that are fastened together with a screw, which can only be opened with a special screwdriver, symbolizing the bond between the wearers.
Cartier also produces high-end watches, including the popular "Tank" watch, which was introduced in 1917 and has a unique rectangular face inspired by the shape of military tanks. The company has also collaborated with other luxury brands, such as Mercedes-Benz and Jaeger-LeCoultre, to create limited-edition watches.
Today, Cartier is part of the Richemont Group, a Swiss luxury goods holding company, and continues to produce exquisite jewelry and watches that are sought after by collectors and connoisseurs around the world.
