Last year, Cartier introduced a collection of leather goods for men, named Louis Cartier. This spring, the Maison addresses women will the C de Cartier bag: a subtly sophisticated bag coming in a variety of nuanced glimmering tones, all inspired by fine stones.
With the option of shoulder or hand carry, the bag’s vibrant hues are inspired by the signature shades of the Maison interpreted in cheery monochrome: in fresh, capricious splashes of amethyst, spessartite garnet, cordierite, turquoise, chalcedony and pink quartz.
Of course, like every time with Cartier, it’s all about the details with only the best in materials and craftsmanship, inside and out: hand-tinted edges, saddle stitching in tone on tone or contrasting colours, a hot stamped Cartier signature, and leather-trimmed lining.
As for the Parisian sparkle that comes with the different bag, it is made possible by means of a meticulously formulated tinting process. The bright, finely nuanced shades are hand-finished at one of the oldest tanneries in France, which dates back to 1803.
