An exhibition showcasing the iconic jewellery of French luxury brand Cartier will open at London’s V&A Museum today. Established in 1847, Cartier has been a favorite of royalty and Hollywood stars. The exhibition will feature 350 jewels and objects, including pieces worn by the British royal family such as Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret. There are also items connected to celebrities like Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Jackie Kennedy, Kim Kardashian, and Rihanna. The exhibition highlights Cartier’s ability to blend heritage with modern design, pushing boundaries to create pieces that speak to the modern woman. The exhibition’s curator, Helen Molesworth, notes that Cartier’s jewellery never goes out of fashion, making it timeless. The connection between Cartier and the British royal family dates back to 1902 when King Edward VII issued a royal warrant. Visitors can expect to see stunning pieces like a diamond engagement ring worn by Grace Kelly in High Society, and a tiara from 1902 worn by Rihanna in 2016. The exhibition provides a rare opportunity to admire the craftsmanship and elegance of one of the world’s most renowned luxury jewellery brands.
