An exciting new addition to the Cartier library, this tome presents a hundred of the latest creations by the famous jeweler, from high jewelry to precious objects, with each new piece pushing the limits of technical brilliance to even greater heights. Always on the hunt for new ideas and sensations, Cartier stuns the world again and again. The Cartier style comes from a wide range of sources and inspirations– the mystery and opulence of China, India and the Orient; the dynamic geometry of art deco; the energy of modern cities; the fascinating and voluptuous nature of orchids; the strength and grace of panthers; influences that are constantly moving and changing with the times, but that also stay faithful to the original style of Louis Cartier, the master of Parisian elegance and the art of high jewelry since the dawn of the twentieth century.

The grammar and vocabulary of the house's designs support a multifaceted poetry that combines classic alexandrines and free verse, but is penned by the same meticulous, innovative, and refined poet. This virtuoso speaks his poems with varied intonations, but in the same timbre. Constantly regenerating over time, he is not ready to put down his pen: the echo of the future resonates in his ode."
