The brand is fashion lawmaker for more than a\ncentury. Cartier is dealing with jewelry, watches and perfume rather than\nclothing, unlike any other fashion house. Even royalty adores Cartier! In this\narticle, we\u2019ll tell you about the ascension of Cartier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2>Paris, a good place for a startup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/06\/19084453\/news_file_554_5e71e35491a70.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/06\/19084453\/news_file_554_5e71e35491a70.jpg 640w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/06\/19084453\/news_file_554_5e71e35491a70-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/06\/19084453\/news_file_554_5e71e35491a70.jpg\" data-full-size=\"640x425\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Louis Francois Cartier was a son of\na powder flask owner. It clearly isn\u2019t the most suitable surrounding for a\ntalented child. However, Louis was dreaming of abandoning powder business and\nbecoming a jeweler since his childhood. His parents were against it though as\nonly royalty can afford jewelry. Everybody needs powder!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, fortune favored Louis-Francois. He founded a jewelry shop in Paris, and was lucky to find customers among Blue Bloods! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Cartier logo history<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The word of a talented jeweler got spread among the nobility soon, and was a beginning of Cartier logo history. Who designed the vignette with interlaced C letters is still unknown. But some people say that the very first Cartier emblem was <strong>created by Pierre Cartier<\/strong>, the grandson of the founder of the Cartier company. The emblem was designed <strong>in 1900, however, it was patented and registered later in 1910<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Cartier logo evolution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the first logo was first introduced in the beginning of XX century. Cartier logo adopted only a couple of minor changes since then, but it still stands tall against its modern rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Logo meaning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/07\/19084432\/cartier-logo.png\" alt=\"cartier logo\" class=\"wp-image-6917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/07\/19084432\/cartier-logo.png 1200w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/07\/19084432\/cartier-logo-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/07\/19084432\/cartier-logo-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2020\/07\/19084432\/cartier-logo.png\" data-full-size=\"1200x800\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The meaning is simple of course. It\u2019s company founder and owner surname initials. <\/strong>Channel and Gucci once did the same, as it\u2019s apt and elegant move. Letters \u201cC\u201d are abundant in notches, which atypical, yet alluring and unusual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Cartier logo font<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cartier logo lettering use a calligraphic handwritten oblique font &#8211; <strong>Cartier CG<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The inscription is a sophisticated handwriting.
