Cartier presented a rare opportunity last weekend for anyone who happened to be in Pavilion to get a closer view of over a dozen items from their La Panthere de Cartier jewellery collection. Key pieces: brooches, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and rings, feature the legendary shape of a panther, crafted using types of precious gems, stones and metal. Cartier’s depiction of the deadly-in-real-life feline is delightful, as different pieces provide a study of its form and behaviour: playful in some, languid in others, but formidable in most. Most pieces were exquisite, but a few larger-than-life, unisex rings were our favourites — to pull these off, you’d have to have the personality stylings of Jay-Z’s, or something close, to match.
