We dedicate our first jewellery and watches catalogue to Louis Cartier (1875-1942), the skilled watchmaker and jeweller whose inventions defined an entire epoch and became a symbol for design and the most exquisite craftsmanship. Grandson of Francois-Louis Cartier, who founded The House of Cartier in 1847, Louis Cartier is the creator of the legendary Tank watch. Symbol of Modern Art, we celebrate this year the centenary anniversary of his invention. First model was offered to General Pershing. Cartier has been known for supplying royalty and the aristocracy. Tank watches were favoured by Gary Cooper, Catherine Deneuve, Mohamed Ali, Princess Diana, Andy Warhol and Madonna. Cartier, Leading family in watchmaking has offered clocks and watches since 1853. Masterworks of Art Deco created by Louis Cartier and his followers included jewellery, timepieces and smoking items. They were remarkable for their geometric lines and abstract shapes. 5
