This year, the Alhambra collection welcomes new necklaces, rings and earrings that reinterpret the iconic lucky motif in vibrant materials, capturing the timeless elegance of this Van Cleef & Arpels icon.

Four new Magic Alhambra long necklaces, adorned with precious, vibrant materials, make their own distinctive presence within the Alhambra collection. The chalcedony necklace combines the radiance of white gold; the iridescent grey mother-of-pearl is delicately layered in rose gold, adding a delicate layer of warm tones; and the blue agate, which first appeared in the collection in 1989, is set in yellow gold.

The interplay of shimmering lines on the guilloched yellow gold Magic Alhambra long necklace and Vintage Alhambra ring catches the sunlight, drawing attention. Thanks to Van Cleef & Arpels' exceptional expertise, the intricately grooved radial pattern clearly defines an expanding halo of light.

A Dazzling Watch
The Sweet Alhambra watch features a guilloched dial, with alternating brilliance from the guilloched rose gold and pink mother-of-pearl motifs on the bracelet. Pink mother-of-pearl makes its debut in the Alhambra collection. The mother-of-pearl motifs are meticulously matched in color and texture, then meticulously polished to achieve their lustrous surface. Now, for the first time, guilloched rose gold is also added to the Alhambra collection, and the engraving shines beautifully when light catches it.
