Louis Cartier, 2021
This book explores the profound connection between Louis Cartier's passion for Islamic art and its integration into Cartier's iconic jewelry designs. Louis Cartier, grandson of the founder, was deeply inspired by Persian book arts, geometric patterns, and the vibrant color palettes of Islamic aesthetics. His younger brother, Jacques, contributed by sourcing natural pearls from India and the Persian Gulf, fostering a dialogue between cultures that enriched Cartier's creations. The volume, published alongside a major exhibition, delves into Cartier's archives to reveal this enduring artistic relationship.
