Window shopping has never been so much fun… now through March at the Denver Art Museum, you can view “Brilliant: Cartier in the 20th Century“. On display are 75 years of history covering the gamut of timepieces, photographs and of course, jewelry. The 14,000 square feet of space is beautifully exhibited and enables us to get a feeling for the pieces commissioned for czars and very wealthy industrialists from 1900-1975. Now, who wants to “put a ring on it”?
