A pair of 18ct white gold, diamond, ruby and onyx ‘Le Baiser du Dragon’ ear pendants by Cartier, the openwork articulated geometric panels designed as stylised dragons, with pear-cut ruby eyes, and onyx and ruby bead highlights, signed ‘Cartier’, maker’s mark ‘J.C’, numbered, London hallmark, French assay mark, maker’s case, total diamond weight approximately 6.00 - 6.20 carats, length 6.3cm. £8,000-£12,000 --- Cartier launched the ‘Le Baiser du Dragon’ collection in 2003, the name translating as ‘The Dragon’s Kiss’. This ‘chinoiserie’ theme revisits Cartier's century long interest in Asia’s rich heritage, first explored circa 1900 by designer Charles Jacqueau. The leading designer for Cartier Paris from 1911-1935, Jacqueau worked closely with Louis Cartier, their creative collaboration inspiring the firm’s move away from the traditional ‘garland’ style of the early 20th century, towards a re-interpretation of jewellery design, and leading the house of Cartier into their ground-breaking ‘Art Deco’ period of the 1920s and 30s.
