Description
The panther is one of Cartier’s most revered designs. Starting life in abstract form, as early as the 1920s, they were not depicted directly, but rather alluded to through polished onyx set against diamonds in semblance of their spotted coats. When Cartier’s major clients such as the Duchess of Windsor and Barbara Hutton started commissioning figurative designs of these creatures, however, Cartier’s ‘Panthère’ collection was born. This ring is a particularly innovative depiction, which shows Cartier’s inventiveness over the years. A pierced disk is applied with black enamel which forms the iconic feline motif, a pear-shaped green garnet eye bringing it to life. A supremely stylish take on one of Cartier’s all-time design classics.
