Vincent Meylan's Instagram account features a new range of jewels from Cartier which references their famed Tutti Frutti jewels.
https://www.instagram.com/p/Bk5Nvl9hNnK/?taken-by=vincentmeylan That made me wonder if we could do a thread on famous earlier Cartier Tutti Frutti jewels - perhaps those belonging to Edwinda Mountbatten, Daisy Fellows, Mrs Vanderbilt, Linda Porter (Mrs Cole Porter) and others.
To avoid confusion when introducing a new name could people indicate that on the subject heading, please.
This spectacular necklace was exhibited at the Canberra Cartier exhibition, and part of one of the photos I took was used for the current banner. Unfortunately, I cannot yet discover its provenance, only that it was made in Paris in 1938.
