Cartier, Arts de l'Islam et modernité (Relié)

Discover the jewels of the maison Cartier inspired by the arts of Islam in this catalogue of the eponymous exhibition at the Louvre Abu Dhabi, co-organised by the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, the Musée du Louvre and France Muséums. At the beginning of the 20th century, the maison Cartier discovered the marvellous motifs of Islamic arts. This breathtaking encounter gave rise to new combinations of colours, materials and shapes that brought the maison into modernity. This catalogue explores the creative process behind some of the greatest masterpieces of French jewellery.
