The Place Vendôme workshop: Where the nuggets of Cartier are made

Today and for years to come, Cartier jewelry is made in France and Switzerland. In France, the famous house Cartier installed its craftsmen above the Parisian boutique located Place Vendôme. Under the sharp eye of the director of the high jewelry workshops, precise gestures follow one another and the magic happens. Each jewel, from the unique piece to the classics of the house, is designed according to the constraint of art and above all the way of enhancing the stones.

For special made-to-measure orders, the designers can come to the customer to draw their wishes while remaining in the Cartier spirit. 

Dazzling jewels of light

The priority is to allow the stones to catch the light as well as possible, it is on this that the whole arrangement of the real size stones is based and the colors which define their nature are the only indications available to the craftsmen to achieve rings, bracelets ou collars in the tradition of the house. It is all the art of the jeweler to shape the supports in gold or platinum to the nearest millimeter to adapt them to the relief of the stone. 

The polishers accentuate the luster of gold and platinum in pursuit of the best reflection. And it shines to the point that the setters, who place the claws necessary to hold the stones, sprinkle them with talc so as not to be blinded by their reflection, and risk a slippage that would waste hours of work and a precious material.
