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,

Cartier Diamond Tiara

Prince Francis of Teck, born in 1870 at Kensington Palace, was the second son of Francis, Duke of Teck, and Princess Mary Adelaide of Cambridge. Educated at Eton and Cheltenham College, Francis was known for his elegance and somewhat extravagant lifestyle. He became close to Ellen, Countess of Kilmorey, despite their significant age difference, and there was speculation about the nature of their relationship, although it appears to have been platonic. Francis had inherited the Teck family’s Cambridge emeralds and had loaned them to the Countess, which caused tension within his family, particularly with his sister, who later became Queen Mary.

After his death in 1910, it was discovered that Francis had bequeathed these emeralds to the Countess in his will, which was sealed, sparking rumors. The Countess eventually sold the famous Cambridge Emeralds back to Queen Mary. Ellen, Countess of Kilmorey, passed away in 1920, leaving behind a will that detailed the disposition of her estate, including the jewel given to her by Prince Francis.

Prinz Francis von Teck, geboren 1870 im Kensington Palace, war der zweite Sohn von Francis, Herzog von Teck, und Prinzessin Mary Adelaide von Cambridge. Er wurde in Eton und am Cheltenham College ausgebildet und war für seinen eleganten und extravaganten Lebensstil bekannt. Francis entwickelte eine enge Beziehung zur deutlich älteren Ellen, Gräfin von Kilmorey, wobei spekuliert wurde, ob die Beziehung platonisch war. Francis hatte die Cambridge Smaragde seiner Familie geerbt und sie der Gräfin geliehen, was Spannungen innerhalb seiner Familie auslöste, insbesondere mit seiner Schwester, die später Königin Mary wurde.

Nach seinem Tod im Jahr 1910 stellte sich heraus, dass Francis diese Smaragde der Gräfin in seinem Testament vermacht hatte, das versiegelt wurde und Gerüchte auslöste. Die Gräfin verkaufte schließlich die Smaragde an Königin Mary. Ellen, Gräfin von Kilmorey, verstarb 1920 und hinterließ ein Testament, das die Verteilung ihres Nachlasses, einschließlich des von Prinz Francis erhaltenen Juwels, detailliert beschrieb.

Princess Margaret’s Cartier Ruby diamond flower head Brooches| Royal Jewel History

King George VI also bought a matching brooch in rubies for Princess Margaret

Princess Margarets Cartier Ruby and Diamond Flower Head Brooches Gift from her FatherKing George VI  - Ruby Flower Head Brooch In 1942 King George VI gave his daughters matching brooches from Cartier. 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
