Following its premiere in Vienna and second installment in Shanghai, Cartier brings the final chapter of its Nature Sauvage high jewellery trilogy to the Former Command House in Singapore. The exhibition, orchestrated in three “passages”, is a poetic symphony between nature, culture, and craftsmanship.
The journey begins at Thrill with the Wind, inspired by Singapore’s gentle breeze. Curved walls, textured surfaces evoke movements of sand, while handwoven rattan elements pay tribute to local artisanal traditions. Within the space, guests are greeted and dazzled by Cartier’s iconic Tutti Frutti collection—vibrant platinum pieces adorned with sapphires, carved emeralds, ruby beads, and diamonds. A standout is the Chryseis necklace, featuring chalcedony beads and a mesmerising 63.76-carat rubellite.
Next, the narrative transitions to Treasures of the Land, where angular lines and geometric motifs reflect the architectural rhythms of urban life. Anchoring this space is the bold new Hathiyon necklace—an abstract interpretation of the elephant, capturing its quiet strength and elegance. The Tiger necklace, crafted from a medley of yellow, orange, brown, and white diamonds with piercing emerald eyes and articulated paws, continues Cartier’s exploration of animal realism here. Also featured is the maison’s signature Panthère, this time coiled around a 10.10-carat Zambian emerald in the Panthère Versatiles necklace—a modular masterpiece that showcases Cartier’s extraordinary technical prowess.
The third passage, Shapes of Water, is a dazzling tribute to the sea. Here, Cartier’s diamonds shimmer like droplets in motion, reflecting the ocean’s fluidity and brilliance. The atmosphere is ethereal, with gems catching the light in a dance reminiscent of waves and currents.
Beyond these three thematic realms, the exhibition also featured a curated selection of Cartier’s most cherished archival pieces, alongside rare vintage creations. Some pieces incorporated embroidery and beadwork—a subtle nod to Singapore’s rich textile heritage. In the fine watchmaking room, time takes a sculptural form beneath radiant straw marquetry arches, where horological masterpieces are displayed in a space that feels both serene and timeless. Completing the experience is the Special Order Room, where guests are invited to co-create bespoke pieces using some of the rarest and most precious gemstones in Cartier’s repertoire.
With this final chapter, Nature Sauvage reaches its crescendo—a harmonious tribute to nature’s raw elegance in a city where heritage, design, and innovation intertwine.
