The first stop of the brand’s traveling pop-up at their Fifth Avenue Mansion focuses on the relationship between the rough and the refined.


When <a href="https://www.cartier.com/" target="_blank">Cartier</a> decided to take the nail, a staple of craftsmanship and manual labor, recreate it in precious metals and then twist it into a necklace, and a bracelet, and a ring, the jewelry market&mdash;and what their clients wanted&mdash;changed forever. So it only made sense that their NYFW-timed Concept within the famed <a href="https://www.cartier.com/en-us/find-boutique/mansion-home.html" target="_blank">Cartier Mansion</a> was called the &ldquo;Precious Garage,&rdquo; exhibiting only the best of the brand&rsquo;s iconic Juste un Clou and &Eacute;crou collections, each fashioned after nails and hardware nuts, respectively.

The installation features gold-wire&nbsp;model cars, an extensive exhibition-style remodeling of the mansion&rsquo;s third floor, and of course, jewelry in a variety of precious metals and diamonds. Each of the collections turns your favorite Home Depot inventory into&nbsp;haute&nbsp;joaillerie&nbsp;centerfolds, with each available in a variety of golds. So whether your next nail purchase comes from the beauty shop, the auto shop, or Cartier, the ones in the little red boxes are the ones we&rsquo;re lusting after.

The traveling installation is on view now in New York until September&nbsp;26th&nbsp;and subsequentially Nashville and Seattle.
