Alongside Paris and New York, London is one of three cities worldwide lucky enough to be graced by a Cartier temple. Places where High Jewellery, Tradition Collection and exceptional objects are brought to life, the New Bond Street establishment has recently reopened — a milestone celebrated in style last night.
Hosted by Cyrille Vigneron, Cartier International President & CEO and Laurent Feniou, Cartier UK Managing Director, a formation of Cartier Bell Boys welcomed guests including Henry Golding, Liam Payne and Tinie Tempah as they entered the New Bond Street boutique on Thursday evening.
