Founded in 1947 in Paris, France, Cartier was honored by King Edward VII as "the king's jeweller and jeweler's king", and in 1904 was granted a first-class English court supply license as a supplier to the British court. For more than 150 years, Cartier has been the world's "King of Jewelry". In 1867, Cartier designed the first lighter for the Universal Exhibition in Paris. Cartier lighters inherit exquisite craftsmanship, uphold their unique style, convey the unique aesthetic and luxury feelings of Cartier products, and are a symbol of the user's identity and status.
