About Cartier
Founded in Paris in 1847, Cartier maintains a precise system of maker's marks, serial numbers, and country-of-origin punches. Marks vary by workshop (Paris, London, New York) and by era, and are often paired with French assay marks (eagle head for gold, owl for imported pieces) and a unique serial number.
