Cartier (the Official V&A Exhibition Book)

From Tiaras to the Tank Watch: the ESSENTIAL book on Cartier Few jewellers are as celebrated as Cartier, and even fewer have as many instantly recognizable designs—some of which, such as the Tank watch, Love bracelet, and Trinity ring, have become iconic. Glamorous, witty, beautiful, and beloved of stars from Elizabeth Taylor to Grace Kelly, over 150 dazzling Cartier pieces are featured here. Published in association with Cartier, this book presents jewels from superlative collections, including the V&A and the Royal Collection, as well as Cartier’s own private collection, and it celebrates the history of the company King Edward VII called the “Jeweller of Kings and King of Jewellers.”

Helen Molesworth is Senior Curator, Jewellery at the V&A. Rachel Garrahan is Project Curator at the V&A.
