Cartier, officially Cartier International SNC, is a French luxury goods conglomerate renowned for its fine jewelry, watches, leather goods, and eyewear. Established in 1847 by Louis-François Cartier in Paris, the brand remained family-owned until 1964 and is now a subsidiary of the Swiss Richemont Group. With a global presence spanning over 200 boutiques in 125 countries, Cartier operates three flagship Historical Maisons in Paris, London, and New York City. Recognized as one of the world’s most prestigious luxury brands, it was ranked 56th on Forbes’ Most Valuable Brands list in 2020, with a brand value of $12.2 billion and revenue of $6.2 billion.
Cartier has a distinguished history of serving royalty, earning King Edward VII’s admiration as “the jeweller of kings and the king of jewellers.” In 1902, Edward VII commissioned 27 tiaras for his coronation, granting Cartier a royal warrant in 1904. Other royal courts, including those of Spain, Portugal, Russia, Serbia, and the House of Orléans, soon followed. One of Cartier’s most remarkable orders came in 1925 from the Maharaja of Patiala, who commissioned the legendary Patiala Necklace along with other jewelry worth ₹1 billion at the time, equivalent to ₹210 billion (US$2.5 billion) today.
