Jewelry: These Collections That Make Us Dream

It was Princess Mathilde, cousin of Napoleon III, who introduced the Maison to high society in 1856. Since then, Cartier has become one of the most prestigious and recognized jewelry brands, also offering cult watches like the Tank, as well as luxury bags and iconic perfumes. Juste un Clou, Love, Clash, Trinity—few jewelers can claim so many legendary collections, not to mention their unmistakable panther emblem.

The Collection: We no longer need to introduce the radical beauty of Juste un Clou, worn on privileged fingers across the capital, or the signature Love bracelet, now customizable. Last year marked the 100th anniversary of the Trinity ring, an iconic piece that, like the entire collection, combines three interwoven bands in white, rose, and yellow gold, now available in a cushion shape—our latest obsession.

Designed for women's daily lives and inspired by Chanel's signature quilted pattern, the Coco Crush collection was born in 2015—an ode to Gabrielle Chanel’s signature, evoking the jackets of jockeys and stable lads at the racetrack. Ten years later, the collection evolves with new diagonal curves, becoming even more modern.

The Collection: The house pays tribute to its founder and her love for the color red, introducing rubies for the first time, particularly in the incredible Coco necklace, where a red gemstone intertwines with the letter C, like a crescent moon. Jennie and Amelia Gray, absolute it-girls of the moment, star in this campaign alongside supermodel Mona Tougaard. Ultimate crush: the mini Coco Crush ring, with quilted motifs, and earrings that can be worn on the lobes or high on the ear.
