Cartier Biography. 
   Cartier S.A. (/ˈkɑrti.eɪ/; French: [kaʁtje]), commonly known as Cartier, is a French jeweler and watch manufacturer. The corporation carries the name of the Cartier family of jewellers whose control ended in 1964 and who were known for numerous products including the "Bestiary" (best illustrated by the Panthère brooch of the 1940s created for Wallis Simpson), the diamond necklace created for Bhupinder Singh the Maharaja of Patiala and in 1904 the first practical wristwatch, the "Santos." Cartier SA is headquartered in Paris.

The company has a long history of serving royalty, as well as stars and celebrities ; then Prince of Wales Edward VII once called Cartier "Joaillier des Rois, Roi des Joailliers" (Jeweller of the Kings, King of Jewellers),[1][2] made an order for 27 tiaras for his coronation in 1902,[3] and issued a royal warrant for supplier to Cartier in 1904.[4] Similar warrants soon followed from the courts of Spain, Portugal, Russia, Siam, Greece, Serbia, Belgium, Romania, Egypt and finally Albania, and also from Monaco and the House of Orleans.[5]
