CARTIER JEWELS YOU SHOULD OWN

A Non-Exhaustive Review Of Everything Cartier You Need To Have, Episode 1

Yes, everyone is obsessed with Cartier. And with a magnificent retrospective in London’s Victoria & Albert Museum in full swing, the Maison is now hotter than hot. So we’re doing our selection of Cartier must-haves, and for our first installment:

THE 1960s BIRD BROOCH

A SELECTION OF BIRD BROOCHES FROM THE CATALOGUE OF THE CARTIER EXHIBITION AT THE VICTORIA & ALBERT MUSEUM

Bird brooches from 1960s Cartier are so covetable for their MidCentury edge combined with whimsical artistry. Created at a time when Cartier embraced playful forms, these brooches combine handcrafted yellow gold, unexpected stones (such as this carnelian), and ubiquitous diamonds. 

We love this Cartier bird brooch because it pairs the Sixties’ playfulness and style with Cartier's sensational craftmanship and always unbeatable choice of materials.

We say this is flutter enough to start many conversations!

The textured finish reflects the Brutalist aesthetic of the period — angular and confident in that MidCentury way.

Each piece is a miniature sculpture, adding humour to fine jewellery craftsmanship for rare and collectible art status.
