-known for both its exuberant opulence and its unbelievably steadfast classicism, Cartier has been a favorite jeweler among the highly fashionable ever since Louis-François Cartier registered his hallmark in Paris in 1847. The firm’s first important client was Princess Mathilde, Napoleon’s stylish niece. In the mid-twentieth century, Cartier attracted a fascinating cadre of larger-than-life customers, including the heiress Barbara Hutton, a devoted client, and Elizabeth Taylor, then the queen of Hollywood. During the 1980s era of power dressing, Cartier brought more staid designs to the fore, including the house’s classic watches. The Santos, designed in 1904 by Louis Cartier for his friend the Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, is a perennial favorite, as is the Cartier Tank, which was styled after U.S. World War I tanks, and which Vogue in 1986 called the “foremost status on the wrists of the powerful.
