2. Cartier
The runner-up in our most expensive jewelry brands list is Cartier. The brand was founded in 1860 and it is one of the most luxurious in the world.
Cartier is true to its Art Deco roots and therefore appeals to modern tastes, but the house also believes in Old World elegance.
The Duchess of Windsor (Wallis Simpson) was so enamored by the house’s signature panther, a model of Cartier’s superb sculptural fluidity and dimensionality, that she ordered several pieces with the motif.
Most famous is her 6.5 inch diamond, onyx and emerald bracelet, sold for over $7 million.
