Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra Earrings

 

If you’re a fan of the iconic 4-leaf clover motif, then you’ll love the VCARN18800 earrings. These are a handcrafted, real gold creation by Van Cleef & Arpels, and they’re a favorite among collectors and celebrities. This pair features a faceted diamond in the center of an onyx inlay. The earrings are 1.5cm wide, and have post and lever-hinged fittings. They come with a RichDiamonds certificate of authenticity, and the gross weight is 7.32 grams.

VCARN18800 is a genuine pre-owned

It’s no secret that Van Cleef & Arpels have created some of the most exquisite jewelry pieces to ever grace the planet. Their signature Alhambra jewelry line is no exception. As such, it has garnered an impressive 50+ year legacy. And it’s no surprise that celebrities, from the likes of Queen Elizabeth II to Francoise Hardy, are wearing it. Here are a few tidbits about the line that you may not have known.

One of the first things that you’ll notice about the Magic Alhambra collection is its asymmetric design. This isn’t to say that all Alhambra jewelry is created equal. The brand’s craftsmen are very particular about the cuts and colors of their chalcedony, and you can expect to see only the best if you’re lucky.

The aforementioned Magic Alhambra is the most dazzling piece in the collection, in terms of sheer bling. For starters, it is made of yellow gold and white and gray mother of pearl. But the best part is that it comes with a detachable stem!

Another cool feature of the Magic Alhambra is its patented Mystery Setting. This is a clever little trick that attaches a jewel to a gold rail in such a way that the prongs are invisible, but it allows for an elegant three-dimensional design. Of course, a bauble of this caliber will cost you quite a bit, but there is no shortage of people willing to pay a premium for it.

If you’re looking to splurge on a tidbit that will be on your wish list for the rest of your life, you’ll be pleased to learn that there’s actually a company that sells the Magic Alhambra earrings for a fraction of the price of the originals. That company is Luxury 24-7.

They sell only the finest resale items, and the Magic Alhambra earrings are no exception. Check out their website to find the piece that is perfect for you!

In addition to their flagship store in Paris, the storied brand has boutiques in New York City, Vancouver, Shanghai, and Geneva. You can also buy Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry online, but you’ll want to do a little homework before purchasing.

VCARN18800 is a handmade real gold creation

The Alhambra collection is Van Cleef & Arpels most iconic design. It first debuted in 1968 and has been updated and revised over the years. As a result, the collection includes rings, earrings, watches, and more. You can find it everywhere.

For the most part, these jewelry pieces remain fairly valuable as an investment. However, the resale value can vary significantly. Some styles can sell for well over the retail price. If you are looking to invest in a resale piece, consider purchasing an item from the Alhambra collection.

Originally crafted in 18k yellow gold, the Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra quatrefoil necklace motif is a double-sided design. Each quatrefoil is encased in creased yellow gold and surrounded by gold beads. This style is one of the first opera length necklaces.

Like all Van Cleef & Arpels pieces, the Alhambra collection is handmade. Craftsmen take great care to plan out the chalcedony cuts. The translucent areas allow the natural tone of the stone to show through. Stones with visible inclusions are a red flag, however.

Although the original design of the line is still popular, the Alhambra collection has expanded to include a wide range of gemstones and design variations. It is also available in limited editions.

The Magic Alhambra is a more modern interpretation of the iconic quatrefoil motif. Unlike the traditional design, the Magic Alhambra collection is composed of different sized and shaped Alhambra motifs. Among the larger pieces are pave-set diamond earrings.
