Cactus de Cartier is Cartier’s newest and free-spirited collection that indulges in non-spiky yet uncompromising sculptural pieces that may now be observed and touched up close. Seductive with a luscious blend of the sometimes gentle, sometimes cruel pleasure of duality, Cartier has again redefined jewellery: the geometry, cut-outs and proportions of this subliminal spiky collection revealing three unexpected designs. It is all about plant shapes dotted with zesty, succulent gemstone flowers in emerald, chrysoprase or carnelian; the generous volumes with geometric structures, gold domes illuminated by precious dewdrops, corollas of radiant and fresh faceted lapis or diamonds; and lastly the REBELLIOUS FLOWER – the audacious beauties adorned with unexpected curves, undulating with ripples and twists and unconfined movement. At the jeweller’s touch, the gold comes to life with twisting contours, open work and precious, pearly droplets.

卡地亚全新的仙人掌系列以自由不羁的迷人魅力,诠释与与众不同的美态,妖媚与温和同存,充满双重乐趣。这一系列运用几何线条、细腻装饰和丰盈造型的设计手法,展现了3种别致的情怀,再次突显了工匠的珠宝工艺。以祖母绿、绿玉髓、红玉髓仿出植物的形态;或以几何结构用黄金、钻石和青金石打造花冠;最后的REBELLIOUS FLOWER系列,以意想不到的囊空形态和黄金装饰,大胆地以纽索和波纹塑造的线条充满了曲线美。

A dream of femininity 女性的柔媚演绎

A timeless subject of artistic watchmaking expression at Cartier, the dreamlike panther enters the decoration – at once diurnal and nocturnal – of a Day/Night movement that belongs to the great tradition of the Maison’s complications.

The figurehead of an incredible watchmaking journey, the panther, over the years, has ventured from one movement to another, sometimes skeletonised, sometimes oscillating, giving rise a creative repertoire to which the latest Rêves de Panthères watch belongs.

Driven by the self-winding calibre 9916 MC, the sun and the moon take turns indicating the time, appearing and disappearing in an alternating astral display, a magical spectacle observed by the three panthers.

繁星密布的夜晚与阳光普照的日间变幻,仿佛营造幻境,让时间的流动变得完整且触手可及。而卡地亚制表的永恒主题猎豹,梦幻般地穿行于时昼时夜的装饰表盘之上。

化身钟表史诗主角的猎豹,年复一年地经历着一次又一次的冒险,时而化为镂空装饰,时而成为机芯摆陀,并在最新推出的 Rêves de Panthères 猎豹装饰腕表中,演绎了极具创意的一幕。
