Cartier

Today, there are many brands, but not every one of them has managed to stay afloat. Brand Cartier, the story of the appearance of which is amazing and interesting, won great popularity! His products are a real item of luxury and envy.

The history of the brand began in 1847, and almost immediately the company gained fame in the fashion jewelry market in France. Products created by this brand, even were part of the world-famous exhibition in Paris.

In 1917 the most popular model of wrist watches was developed and created, the name of which is known to this day - Tank. The product is named in this way due to the fact that its design resembles the structure of a tank that belonged to the British army during the First World War.

In 1925, the brand became a member of the International Art Exhibition in Paris. It is worth noting that among all the exhibits presented at this exhibition, the product from Cartier was one of the central ones.

In 1931-1949, the brand based its activities on the active production of jewelry for the whole family of Edward VIII. It was cooperation with such eminent personalities that brought even more popularity to the brand.

From the beginning of the 70s, the French brand began active cooperation with Swiss manufacturers. Soon the creators of the brand became the owners of one of the Swiss watch factories. Thus began the mass production of high-quality watches with quartz movement.

The founder of the brand is Louis-Francois Cartier, who began his great journey with a small workshop specializing in jewelry. In early childhood, nothing foreshadowed his career in this field, since the whole family of little Louis was convinced: the son would follow in the footsteps of his father, the owner of a workshop producing powder horns.

However, the talent for the artistic depiction of jewelry manifested itself as a teenager, and then grew into a passion for their creation. The mother of the talented Cartier was extremely dissatisfied with the choice of her son, because she thought gold was very unreliable and insisted that Louis continue the work of his father.

Fortunately, Louis-Francois continued to develop his talent and even studied with one of the best jewelers - Adolph Picard. He acquired his first small workshop from him and over the next six years he managed to save up the necessary funds to open the second one.

The rise in popularity of the jewelry talent happened when one of the girlfriends of Napoleon Bonaparte’s niece visited his modest shop and bought three brooches, which became the “key” that opened many roads.

It so happened that the brand became a truly family business, so it passed from generation to generation. The grandsons of Louis-Francois were engaged in making jewelry, but after their death, unfortunately, the company was divided and sold to owners from different countries who managed to preserve its fame and continue the great work of the Cartier family.
