Paris-based Cartier is a brand born of ambition and love for exclusive beauty. Everyone succumbed to the charm and incredible precision of jewelry making, and English King Edward VII, speaking of L. Cartier with great fondness, used the title "jeweler of kings, king of jewelers." The founder of the manufactory is Louis-François Cartier, whose sense of aesthetics stole the hearts of even the most extravagant aristocracy of 19th century Paris. The fame he gained quickly translated into rapid growth - antique account books indicate that the first jewelry ladies' watches left the Cartier showroom in 1888.
