Maison Cartier is a luxury French jewelry and watchmaking house founded in 1847 by Louis-Francois Cartier. Over the years, the brand has become known for its exquisite craftsmanship and iconic designs, and has created some of the most significant historic jewels of the 20th century.

One of the most famous historic jewels created by Maison Cartier is the „Hope Diamond,“ a 45.52-carat blue diamond that was originally mined in India. In 1910, the diamond was purchased by Cartier and was later sold to American socialite Evalyn Walsh McLean. The diamond remained in her family until 1958 when it was sold to Harry Winston, and eventually ended up at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in Washington D.C.

Another notable historic jewel created by Maison Cartier is the „Tutti Frutti“ bracelet, which was designed in the 1920s and featured a combination of colored gemstones in a unique, Art Deco-inspired style. The bracelet was a favorite of many wealthy clients, including Daisy Fellowes, the granddaughter of the founder of the Singer Sewing Machine Company.

Maison Cartier also created several tiaras and other pieces of jewelry for royal families around the world. One such piece is the „Halo Tiara,“ which was created for the coronation of King George VI’s wife, Queen Elizabeth, in 1937. The tiara features 739 brilliant-cut diamonds set in platinum. Halo Tiaras.
‘halo’ style, popularised by Cartier to suit the softer hairstyles of the 1930s and intended to be worn at a steep angle at the front of the
head. Halo tiaras were especially in demand with Cartier’s London clientele.Halo tiaras are worn at a steep angle, high on the crown
of the head, encircling the wearer with a halo-like
blaze of precious stones. The style was developed in
the 1930s, serving as the perfect complement to the
closely cropped, waved hairstyles that were in favor.

In addition to its historic jewels, Maison Cartier continues to create new and innovative designs to this day. The brand has remained a symbol of luxury and refinement for over 170 years and continues to be a favorite among celebrities and high-profile clients. mughal jewels,

The brooch given to Queen Elizabeth II was set with sapphire and the brooch given to Princess Margaret was set with rubies. Each of the girls later received a second matching brooch. Princess Margaret wore the gifts often in the first few years after they were received but they later fell out of favor for larger more glittering pieces.

In 1979 Princess Margaret decided to sell seven pieces of jewelry at Sotheby’s.  it was speculated she was struggling financially while a spokesman for her insisted they were simply old pieces she didn’t wear anymore and wanted to get rid of.  “An attractive pair of gold, ruby and diamond Clips, each designed as a flowerhead, the centre set with a cluster of cushion-shaped rubies and brilliant-cut diamonds, by Cartier, London

Cartier Diamond Sunburst Tiara |Countess Suffolk|Dollarprincess Daisy Leiter| England Aristocratic Noble Jewel History

Cartier Diamond Sun Tiara |Countess Suffolk|Dollarprincess Daisy Leiter| England Aristocratic Noble Jewel History  Dec. .26. — Miss Marguerite Hdye Leiter, popularly known as "Daisy," the youngest and only unmarried daughter of the late Levi Z. Leiter, was married to-day at noon to Henry Mollneaux Page Howard, nineteenth Earl of Suffolk and Berkshire. Miss Leiter is the third daughter'of the house to contract a marriage with a noble family of England. Her eldest sister, who was Miss Mary, married Lord Curzon, Viceroy of India. Her other sister, Miss Nancy, married Major Colin Campbell, a cousin of the Duke of Argyle, on November 29 last. While to-day's wedding was extremely quiet, it lacked none of the glamour of music, lights and flowers. The stately drawing-room, library and dining-room of the Leiter mansion were fragrant with delicate white blossoms, which were banked against a background of smilax and palms, while the suggestion of the Christmas season was given by the holly and brilliant poinsettia that adorned the din-ing-room. ■ *

While the strains of a string orchestra sounded sweetly through the house, the silken rustle of the bridal gown proclaimed the approach of the bride. Long known as one of the beauties of the capital, Miss Leiter never looked lovelier than to-day in her soft clinging gown of Libertin satin, veiled with exquisite point de Venice lace, over which fell her tulle veil, held In place by a tiara of diamonds. This tiara is one of the handsomest jewels of a rare collection of family heirlooms, which the Earl presented to his bride. A long rope of pearls, the favourite Jewel of the bride and which was the gift of her mother, was worn around her throat. She carried a graceful loose cluster of white orchids and roses.

Escorted by her brother, Joseph Leiter. she approached the window recess where the Earl and his best man, Lionel Guest, a son of Lord Winborn of England, awaited her. The Rev. Dr. Roland Cotton Smith, rector of St. John's Church, which the family attends, performed the ceremony according to the Episcopal ritual.

Mrs. Leiter. Mrs. Colin Campbell, Lady Nina Howard, a sister of the Earl, .who has been with him since his arrival in this country, were the only other persons to witness the ceremony.

After the ceremony the party, repaired to the dining-room, where a wedding breakfast was served. The Earl and Countess of Suffolk left Washington late in the afternoon for New York and will sail on Wednesday for England, probably having for their companions Major and Mrs. Campbell. The Earl will take his bride to Charlton Park, his country seat, at Malmesbury, in Wiltshire. It is said to comprise 10,000 acres and Is rich in Historical memories.

Diadem Ausstellung – Aristocratic Diademe

Lady Dianas Hochzeitstiara als Highlight der
 Jubilee-Tiara-Ausstellung bei Sotheby's

Im Rahmen der „Jubilee Season“, einem einmonatigen Programm mit Ausstellungen, Auktionen und Veranstaltungen zu Ehren der Regentschaft Ihrer Majestät, Königin Elisabeth, präsentiert Sotheby’s die größte Diadem-Ausstellung, die es seit 20 Jahren im Vereinigten Königreich gegeben hat – eine Hommage an eines der symbolträchtigsten Zeichen für den immerwährenden Stil der Monarchin: das Diadem.

In der Ausstellung werden rund 50 Diademe aristokratischer und königlicher Herkunft gezeigt, wobei einige Stücke zum ersten Mal öffentlich ausgestellt werden.

Nahezu alle Diademe der Ausstellung wurden für den britischen Adel angefertigt und befanden sich in dessen Besitz. Zusammen bieten sie einen schillernden und umfassenden Überblick über alle großen Stilrichtungen der Diademgestaltung anhand einiger der berühmtesten Vertreter dieses Genres. 

Eine Reihe von Diademen in der Ausstellung wurden bei der Krönung der Königin 1953 getragen, so z. B.

das Anglesey-Diadem, das vermutlich um 1890 angefertigt wurde,

Mit fast 50 Exponaten zeigt die Ausstellung die etabliertesten Designstile innerhalb des Genres der Diademe, darunter das napoleonische Empire, den romantischen Naturalismus, die Belle Epoque, das Art Déco sowie moderne und zeitgenössische Designs.

Die Spencer-Tiara

Zu den ganz besonderen Stücken der Ausstellung gehört die historische Spencer-Tiara, die eines der eindrucksvollsten Mitglieder der königlichen Familie in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart trug. Sie wurde ursprünglich 1767 angefertigt und innerhalb der Familie Spencer über Generationen weitergegeben. Vor etwas mehr als 40 Jahren wurde sie von Lady Diana getragen und erregte Aufsehen, als sie bei der mit Spannung erwarteten königlichen Hochzeit des vergangenen Jahrhunderts die St. Paul’s Cathedral betrat. Nun wird sie zum ersten Mal seit den 1960er Jahren wieder in London ausgestellt.

Das berühmte, girlandenartige Design besteht aus einem zentralen, mit Diamanten besetzten herzförmigen Motiv, das von fortlaufenden Schnecken flankiert wird, die von stern- und trompetenförmigen, ebenfalls mit Diamanten besetzten, in Silber und Gold gefassten Blüten unterbrochen werden. Das herzförmige Stück hatte für Lady Diana eine besondere Bedeutung, da ihre Großmutter, Lady Cynthia Hamilton, dieses 1919 als Hochzeitsgeschenk anlässlich ihrer Heirat mit „Jack“, Viscount Althorp, dem späteren 7. Earl Spencer, erhielt.

Wie bei Schmuckstücken dieser Art üblich, wurde das Spencer-Diadem im Verlauf von nahezu 200 Jahren immer wieder ergänzt und umgestaltet, bis der Kronjuwelier Garrard in den 1930er Jahren den Auftrag erhielt, das Diadem zu einem endgültigen Schmuckstück zu gestalten. Lady Diana war bekannt dafür, dass sie die Spencer-Tiara sehr mochte. Sie trug sie häufig anlässlich Galaveranstaltungen – zwischen 1983 und 1992 trug sie das schillernde Stück mindestens siebenmal zu besonderen Anlässen während königlicher Reisen und hochkarätigen Ereignissen innerhalb und außerhalb des Vereinigten Königreichs.

The Aristocratic Jewels exhibition will run at Sotheby’s London New Bond St from 28 May to 15 June
