Cartier Royal - High Jewelry and Precious Objects by Francois Chaille

Some gemstones are so beautiful, vibrant, and luminous that they evoke a celestial creation, miraculously tumbled down from the heavens. Cartier craftsmen work with such stones-including a spectacular 30.21 carat pearshaped and brilliant-cut diamond. The resulting jewelry design is a pure work of art. In this volume, exceptional diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and emeralds form a prodigious constellation entirely in keeping with the legendary stones that Cartier-known as the - jeweler of kings--has fashioned throughout its long history.
