The Maison&rsquo;s latest bag design captures the grace and strength of its proudest emblem.

It dates back to 1914 when the panther first made an abstract appearance on a ladies&rsquo; wristwatch juxtaposing onyx and diamonds designed by Louis Cartier. In 1933, Jeanne Toussaint, whom Louis Cartier affectionately nicknamed &ldquo;La Panth&egrave;re&rdquo;, took over the helm at Cartier and fleshed out the big cat in three-dimensional creations for the first time in 1935, setting the stage for Cartier jewellery&rsquo;s signature artistry.

Fast-forward to the present, Cartier&rsquo;s dearest emblem, the panther, makes its mark on the newest Panth&egrave;re de Cartier bag in a nod to Toussaint&rsquo;s creative heritage. Fluid lines and a structured silhouette meet in this top handle to evoke the panther&rsquo;s fierce elegance and magnetic allure. Its fa&ccedil;ade is completed with a jewel clasp - C for Cartier, but if you look closely, it&rsquo;s a finely sculpted bangle featuring the movement of the panther. Different sizes of black lacquer spots emulating the feline&rsquo;s rosettes adorn the clasp to give it life and motion.

Cartier&rsquo;s accessories design studio worked closely with its High Jewellery sculptors to seamlessly translate luxury and versatility into every detail of the Panth&egrave;re de Cartier bag. Its minimalist proportion is presented in calfskin with scratch-resistant wavy grained texture and sheen, making it an ideal 9-to-5 ally. Together with the handle, the adjustable and detachable strap ensures different styling options. To top it off, its roomy interior is equipped with thoughtful compartments, pockets and portable mirror.
