The National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) is gearing up for a monumental showcase as it prepares to unveil an extraordinary Cartier exhibition in 2026. Boasting the largest-ever assemblage of Cartier’s iconic creations in Australia, this exhibition promises to captivate both aficionados and newcomers alike. Visitors will encounter a dazzling array of jewellery, watches, and objets d’art, spanning over a century of craftsmanship and design innovation. Highlights include legendary pieces that chart the evolution of the house’s signature motifs-panthers, dragons, and delicate floral patterns-and a rare glimpse into Cartier’s royal commissions and glamorous Art Deco masterpieces.

Designed as a multi-sensory experience, the exhibition’s layout will invite audiences to explore Cartier’s rich heritage through immersive displays and interactive installations. Key features will include:

  • Exclusive archival photographs and original sketches
  • Behind-the-scenes insights into the jewel-making process
  • Curated virtual reality tours of Cartier’s historic ateliers

The display aims to not only illuminate the technical virtuosity and artistic vision behind Cartier’s legacy but also celebrate the brand’s enduring influence in global luxury culture. Below is a snapshot of the event details:
