Cartier’s new COLORATURA collection takes its name from a 16th-century Italian word that signifies a highly virtuoso style of music, which in turn is derived from the Latin word for ‘colour’. In line with this, the beautiful array of haute joaillerie encompasses the vibrant colours of India, the subtle palettes of Japan or the staccato shades of Africa.
