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,

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

Queen Elisabeth of Belgium Garland Style Diamond Tiara |Kokoshnik Diadem CARTIER

Diamond Tiara in the garland style of kokoshnik outline, the openwork floral mount designed as graduated symmetrical scroll and acanthus leaf motifs, central cushion-shaped diamond of 5,84ct twin leafage border, made by Cartier – workshop Georges Harnischard for Queen Elisabeth of BelgiumQueen Elisabeth of Belgians Cartier Tiara- One of Cartier Tiara-  most beautiful pieces was created in 1910, and bought by Queen Elisabeth of Belgium, in
Cartier designer Henri Chenaud found excellent proportions for this kokochnik, combining the lightness and solidity of platinum. Pierre Rainero created an idyllic botanical description (acanthus leaves, bay leaves, etc.). I only believe in the talent of designer Chenaud, who used the garland style adapted to Art Nouveau. The tiara was later altered so that it could be worn across the forehead, as was the fashion in the 1920s.

Königin Elisabeth ist schon drei Jahre belgische Königin als sie dieses Platin Diamant Diadem bei Cartier erwirbt.

Als Königin Elisabeth von Belgien, Herzogin in Bayern, 1965 starb, hinterließ sie dieses Diadem, ihrem Sohn, dem ehemaligen König Leopold III. (nach seiner Abdankung wurde er 1951 durch seinen ältesten Sohn, König Baudouin, auf dem belgischen Thron ersetzt), der es seiner zweiten Frau, Prinzessin Liliane, schenkte. Sie verkaufte das Diadem 1987 an Cartier, die es heute Teil ihrer Heritage-Kollektionen aufbewahren.

Important emerald and diamond pendant/brooch combination, Cartier, 1927.

The surmount set with a carved emerald flower, framed with circular-cut diamonds, supporting a plaque set with an hexagonal polished emerald and calibré-cut emeralds, supporting three emerald drops with onyx rondelle crowns and circular-cut diamond terminals, unsigned, brooch fitting detachable, one small emerald deficient.

The pendant will be  offered at auction by Sotheys, Geneva November 2019. Accompanied by SSEF report no. 108686, stating that the emeralds are of Colombian origin, with a minor to a moderate amount of oil in fissures.

Cartier’s use of Mughal stones in jewellery was an important aspect of their Indian style, these designs were dominant between 1913 and 1930.

Raja is a title for a monarch equivalent to king or princely ruler in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia.

This pendant also calls to mind the brooch worn by Marjorie Merriweather Post, captured in a painting by Giulio de Blaas in 1929.
