🟥 A sculptural pair of vintage Cartier crystal cruets, crafted in the 1980s with the Maison’s signature balance of clean geometry and understated luxury. Their weighty bases, flared shoulders, and faceted stoppers catch the light beautifully, creating an elegant presence on any dining table or curated interior. Designed for oil and vinegar yet equally striking as decorative objets, this matching pair brings unmistakable Cartier refinement to everyday rituals.
Cruets are in average vintage/used condition. One of the cruets has a small chip on the top of the lid stopper. Acid etched Cartier logo can be seen on the bottom. Please see all of the photos. 🟥
⌛History Behind The Piece⌛
Cartier has long extended its design language beyond jewellery, creating refined tableware and crystal pieces that echo the Maison’s commitment to architectural clarity and impeccable craftsmanship. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Cartier commissioned European crystal houses to produce small-batch dining and desk accessories — including oil and vinegar cruets, perfume flacons, and miniature decanters — all finished with the discreet etched signature found on this pair. These sculptural bottles reflect that era’s shift toward minimalist luxury: clean lines, weighty bases, and the quiet elegance that has defined Cartier’s home collections for decades.
