Described by King Edward VII as ‘the jeweller of kings and the king of jewellers’, Cartier was founded in 1847 by Louis-François Cartier. It was however the third generation of the Cartier family, the sons of Alfred Cartier, Louis, Pierre and Jacques, who truly put the Parisian firm on the map and made it a name known and respected worldwide. Today Cartier is a name synonymous with exquisite jewellery as well as some of the most highly desired timepieces in all watchdom. For example, the famous square and rectangular Cartier Tank was created by Louis Cartier in 1917 after seeing the Renault tanks in World War I. As of 2012, Cartier is a member of the Richemont Group and operates in more than 200 stores in 125 countries.
