MÉTIERS D’ART

Artistic crafts

By integrating a glyptics workshop into its High Jewelry workshops and creating the Maison des Métiers d'Art in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Cartier demonstrates its commitment to preserving, transmitting and developing age-old, endangered and timelessly precious techniques.

Glyptics

Glyptics is the art of engraving and sculpting hard, precious or fine stones. Cartier is one of the few great jewelers to have this Métier d’Art done in-house. Integrated into the Maison in 2010, the workshop is now led by Émilie Marques, one of Maître d'Art Philippe Nicolas’ students, who passes on her expertise to her apprentices.
