Launched in 1968, the French high jewelry Maison Van Cleef & Arpels continues to evolve its incomparable Alhambra collection, a symbol of good fortune. Now, the Maison infuses its Vintage Alhambra pendant with a delicate iridescence. Rose gold, evoking the tender embrace of love, meets gray mother-of-pearl, renowned for its sublime beauty, creating a serene, harmonious dialogue of exquisite tones.
Vintage Alhambra Pendant
Gray mother-of-pearl reflects the delicate rainbow of light. Its brilliance evokes femininity and generosity. The gray mother-of-pearl used by Van Cleef & Arpels is captivating with its harmonious silver-gray nuances, uniform surface, and exquisite brilliance. The meticulously polished rose gold radiates a soft, warm, and feminine glow.
Excellent Craftsmanship and Expertise
True to its original style, the Alhambra collection features delicate gold beaded edges around the motif, crafted using traditional techniques cherished by Van Cleef & Arpels. This represents the height of Van Cleef & Arpels' jewelry-making expertise, which is constantly striving for excellence. Each piece is created through the combined skills of various artisans, including jewellers, jewellery setters, and polishers. Creating this timeless piece of auspicious jewellery requires a total of 15 processes, including stone selection, jewellery crafting, and quality control.

"If you want to be lucky, believe in luck." Jacques Arpels, nephew of Estelle Arpels, would always say this. The first Alhambra long necklace was created in 1968, inspired by the four-leaf clover. Luck, a theme dear to the Maison, continues to inspire many of the Maison's most iconic creations and lingers throughout Van Cleef & Arpels' history.
