From Belle Epoque years to Art Deco age, clocks produced by CARTIER were another way to show that the Maison was not just capable of making watches. These creations represent a technical and aesthetic craftsmanship in the history of both the Maison and of the decorative arts.
Everybody knows that CARTIER is an expert in shapes and sizes, the Santos Dumont or the Tank for example, are world-class for many decades. However, clocks, of course, are made for such a small audience and will so never be a hit on any glamorous magazine’s cover.
But clocks by CARTIER are still there, silently contribute to the Maison’s heritage, and to the small audience that appreciates their timeless beauty. There’s a headline that we really love from Revolutionwatches, it says ‘A clock, after all, makes a home out of a house’.
