An exceptional volume dedicated to Cartier's latest collection of high jewelry and precious objects.

Le Choeur des Pierres--the name of Cartier's new high jewelry collection--resonates with a play on words between the French terms choeur (choir) and coeur (heart). This twofold allusion simultaneously encapsulates the foundational principle of Cartier's vision of high jewelry--that the stone lies at the heart of the creative process--and brings together principal and accent stones into a choir of gems that form an ensemble in which every voice harmonizes to create an exceptional piece.

How does one create perfect harmony among the different stones of a piece of jewelry, tuned in unison to a design, a rhythm, a play of pairings and echoes, like a musical choir? Cartier's experts and designers are masters of this art of orchestration, which consists of bringing stones together so that their magic unites within a single jewel. Within this ensemble, none should blend in or vanish: each holds equal importance, as in a chorale where every voice counts and stands apart. A subtle play gives the design its dynamism and rhythm.
