Cartier’s latest high jewelry collection, “En Équilibre”, is a tribute to the art of harmony – where precision, purity of form and bold creative vision unite in a breathtaking balance. From subtle asymmetries to vivid chromatic contrasts, each piece showcases the Maison’s commitment to balance, both visual and conceptual.

Jacqueline Karachi, Director of High Jewelry Creation, describes this vision as “sophisticated simplicity”, where restraint enhances creativity and clarity. “It is the art of equilibrium… that reveals Cartier’s sense of harmony,” she explains.

“Hyala” necklace

The collection features several standout pieces. “Shito”, an emerald masterpiece, is crafted around two 49.37-carat Zambian emeralds set in asymmetrical diamond pendants. “Hyala” shimmers like a veil of light, with colored sapphires and diamonds delicately set in rose gold.


“Panthère Orbitale” necklace

The Maison’s emblematic panther appears in two new interpretations. “Panthère Orbitale” captures the feline atop a coral cabochon, surrounded by amethyst and onyx, while “Panthère Dentelée” presents the creature in lace-like openwork, with emerald beads cascading like liquid color.


“Tsagaan” necklace

Nature continues to inspire with “Tsagaan”, a geometric creation evoking the elusive snow leopard, and “Pavocelle”, a transformable necklace built around a 58.08-carat Ceylon sapphire, its form echoing the grace of a peacock’s plumage.


“Traforato” necklace

“Traforato” and “Summae” highlight Cartier’s love for chromatic harmony, featuring black, white and green elements with emeralds, onyx and diamonds, each piece designed to appear as if drawn with a single, flawless stroke.

As Alexa Abitbol, Director of High Jewelry Workshops, notes: “Nearly 100,000 hours of work have gone into these creations… masterpieces of balance that make the invisible as precious as the visible.”

With “En Équilibre”, Cartier once again redefines elegance – where every curve, stone and empty space speaks the language of timeless sophistication.
