Symbol of luck
The Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra design is one of the most recognizable in fine jewellery. It is named after the iconic eight-th century Moorish palace in Granada, Spain. In the early 2000s, the collection incorporated diamonds on yellow gold.
The four-leaf clover has long been a symbol of good luck. Since the 1920s, it has appeared in various designs from Van Cleef & Arpels. This lucky-symbol motif paved the way for the company’s most popular creation, the Alhambra.
While the Alhambra’s name is derived from a palace in Spain, the design itself was inspired by four-leaf clovers. Jacques Arpels had a fondness for the four-leaf clover and this inspired him to create his first Alhambra piece.
Although the Alhambra is a famous design, it wasn’t until the 1970s that it gained popularity among celebrities. Grace Kelly was a huge fan of the company and wore multiple Alhambra necklaces at once. However, the brand’s most recognizable design is a single, albeit small, quatrefoil.
The most popular type of stone in the Alhambra collection is onyx. It has translucent and opaque areas, making it perfect for showing off the natural tone of the stone. Other types of stone include chalcedony and mother-of-pearl. Aside from these, there are also many varieties of gemstones.
Like most designs from this brand, the Alhambra has undergone a number of revisions. Over the years, the company has created several iterations of the motif, each with its own unique style. Among them is the Vintage Alhambra, which is a faithful reproduction of the original line’s station necklace.
The company has also adapted the Alhambra to include smaller versions, such as the Sweet Alhambra, which features signature Alhambra motifs in miniature sizes. These pieces have a subtle burnished finish, similar to that of the Pure Alhambra. Besides the vintage-inspired designs, the Lucky Alhambra collection explores nature-inspired symbols of good luck.
Today, the Van Cleef & Arpels brand is one of the most famous and highly regarded in the world. Its iconic designs are found in stores around the globe. From time to time, the brand also releases special collections. Some of these collections have sold higher than their retail value.
Byzantine Alhambra collection
The Alhambra motif is one of the most popular motifs for jewelry. It first appeared in jewelry during the 1920s. Today, it is the most recognizable symbol of Van Cleef & Arpels.
Its name comes from the fortress of Granada, Spain. It is based on a quatrefoil, a four-leaf clover shaped talisman. A four-leaf clover is a symbol of good luck. Since its introduction, the Alhambra has been a favorite among celebrities. Grace Kelly and Reese Witherspoon are known for their love of the design.
Since the 1960s, the Alhambra motif has been revived in several collections. In addition to diamonds, the collection also features a variety of other gemstones. One of the most common is onyx. This stone has translucent areas that allow the natural tone to shine through.
Another variation of the Alhambra is the Byzantine. This line uses different sized quatrefoils to create a bold asymmetrical design. Unlike the Vintage and Sweet Alhambra lines, the Byzantine leaves negative space between the stones.
During the 1970s, the design was very popular. Designers like Paco Rabanne, Mary Quant, and Pierre Cardin reflected a post-war feminist attitude. As a result, the Alhambra became one of the most sought-after resale collections.
While the Alhambra is perhaps the most popular of all Van Cleef & Arpels designs, the brand has produced other variations. Some of these include the Pure Alhambra creations, the Lucky Alhambra collection, and the Sevres porcelain. Each is named after a place in Spain.
Throughout the years, the Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra collection has been refreshed. Each decade, the collection has featured new gemstones. Currently, it features onyx, lapis lazuli, grey mother-of-pearl, and rock crystals. These gems are set in 18K yellow gold.
There are also limited edition Alhambra designs. For the 50th anniversary of the Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry line, the Maison has introduced special capsule collections. Among the most recent are the Lucky Alhambra collection and the Pure Alhambra. All are available online at FORTUNA.

This iconic piece was worn by Grace Kelly, a longtime Van Cleef & Arpels fan. She wore two or three necklaces at a time to complete her look.
