Summary

Description

A bandeau by the firm Cartier, on display as part of the "Jazz Age" exhibit at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States.

The French jewelry firm Cartier was established in Paris by Louis-François Cartier (1819–1904) in 1847. In 1916, his grandson, Jacques Cartier, emigrated to the United States and opened a New York City branch of the business on Fifth Avenue.

This piece, consisting of a natural pearl, diamons, and platinum, was designed in 1924. It is in the form of a bandeau, a narrow strip of cloth worn around the forehead. Cartier adapated the tiara (which perched atop the hair) into this new form, which mimicked the cloth bandeau fashionable women wore during the Jazz Age.

This piece was originally owned by Nanaline Duke, wife of tobacco and electric power industrialist James Buchanan Duke. It was inherited and worn by their sole child, heiress and socialite Doris Duke.
