MIAMI DESIGN DISTRICT
CARTIER TRINITY 100 POP-UP
Cartier is marking the 100th anniversary of its iconic Trinity collection with a special pop-up experience in Miami from December 4–8. The immersive Trinity 100 experience celebrates the rich history of the collection, taking visitors from present day back to 1924, when Louis Cartier designed the first piece of Trinity jewelry. The experience comprises five distinct spaces: A room dedicated to Jean Cocteau — who popularized the collection in the 1930s with his now iconic double-stacked pinky rings, and another to Trinity’s place in pop culture throughout time. A third space pays homage to the number three, a pattern that repeats itself throughout the Maison’s creations. The immersion continues with a showcase of jewelry and objects from the Cartier Collection. Visitors will have the opportunity to try on creations from the collection. To reserve a timeslot for complimentary admission or for more information, please visit: cartier.com
Location: 23 NE 41st St, Miami, FL 33137

CRAIG ROBINS COLLECTION 2024-2025 EXHIBITION THE SLEEP OF REASON
The Craig Robins Collection in Miami comprises over 1,500 pieces of contemporary art and innovative design, and exhibited within the Dacra headquarters in the Miami Design District.
