For a brief spell, the heritage building was transformed into a world unto itself: A seamless fusion of Cartier’s aesthetic codes and Singapore’s own cultural tapestry. As part of a private exhibition, six curated spaces and 10 private viewing rooms brought to life the third and final chapter of Nature Sauvage, Cartier’s high jewellery collection devoted to the untamed and the unexpected. Following previous chapters revealed in Vienna and Shanghai, Cartier chose Singapore to unveil its concluding act, marking 30 years of presence here with typical flourish.
As ever, the maison’s beloved animal motifs take centre stage, but never quite how – or where – you’d expect. The Pantheres Versatiles, for instance, features a stylised panther coiling with serpentine sensuality toward a 10.10-carat Zambian emerald. As its name suggests, the necklace is transformable, allowing its wearer to adapt the piece depending on mood and neckline. In the Panthere Canopee, the feline reclines on white gold leaves, keeping a possessive paw over a 26.53-carat Ceylon sapphire.
