The Cartier style - the breadth of its registers and its capacity for renewal - owes everything to Louis Cartier, grandson of the founder of the House, who, from the beginning of the 20th century, combined his taste for modernity with his inclination for classicism.

Since then, the House has remained faithful to this subtle blend: the Cartier style is both unique and plural, rich in multiple expressions but always recognisable. Designers have laid down new rules for the interplay of geometry, sculpted generous volumes and examined the colour combinations of precious and semi-precious stones, exploring nature as well as Islamic designs and Chinese decorations.

This richly illustrated book examines Cartier's key themes, demonstrating how the House has pushed back the boundaries of creation while remaining faithful to the grammar established by Louis Cartier.
