Cartier en équilibre : Haute joaillerie et objets précieux

Nouveauté

Auteur(s) : Collectif

A man of classical culture, Louis Cartier (1875-1942) forged a unique identity for the Maison by defining a jewellery aesthetic initially inspired by the 18th century and its neoclassical precepts: harmony, proportion and precision. Constantly evolving, the ‘Cartier style’ is based on this notion of balance. No detail should disturb the interpretation of the motif, no artifice should hinder the dynamics of the structure.

In its new high jewellery collection, En Équilibre, Cartier accomplishes a gesture of masterful refinement: celebrating balance as the absolute form of elegance. This balance is not simply a question of symmetry, but a subtle interplay of contrasts – between fullness and emptiness, delicacy and intensity, essential lines and bold volumes – which translates into creations of extraordinary formal coherence and great visual power.

In this book dedicated to Cartier's new collection, each piece stands out for the purity of its lines, the harmony of its proportions and the precise alternation between structural lightness and material presence. Cartier's philosophy thus finds new expression in creations that engage in a dialogue with opposing forces: from symmetry to asymmetry, from minimalism to opulence, from soft shades to bold colour combinations.
