The Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra is one of the most iconic and sought-after jewelry collections in the world. This dazzling creation, a homage to the iconic four-leaf clover, has made its mark on jewelry history. From the first to the most recent, the collection has been honored in numerous ways. In 2013, the Bowers Museum in Santa Ana, California hosted a showcase of the designer’s wares, which included the “Van Cleef & Arpels’s Pure Alhambra.” The same year, the Maison’s Alhambra collection was the subject of an exhibition at the Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris. Likewise, the brand was featured in a 2012 show at the Cooper-Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.

Aside from the famous four-leaf clover, the Van Cleef & arpels alhambra necklace also features another icon of the era. One of the earliest pieces of this design was a sautoir, a rectangular box made from a patented technique called mystery setting. In the box, gemstones are placed inside the slots, giving the illusion of a solid piece.

The mystery setting technique was patented by Jacques Arpels in 1933, and it was not just an artistic feat; it was a technological accomplishment. To create the piece, the jeweler carved a matrix for a drawer, fitted the gemstones into the slots, and polished the finished product. By using this patented process, the jeweler could more accurately reproduce the four-leaf clover.

Another of the most impressive features of the Alhambra is the large number of stone types used. There are a wide variety of colors to choose from, including diamonds, pink sapphires, onyx, and malachite. Each of these stones represents the mystical symbol of four leaf clovers in its most pure form.

For those who are looking for a more affordable way to get their hands on the vintage Alhambra pendant, they can find it for sale on Rebag.com. This necklace can be worn as a pendant, or simply as an accessory to complete a look. While the price is a bit higher than retail, you can still save a lot of money.

In 1968, Van Cleef & Arpels launched its Alhambra collection. The design is based on the quatrefoil motif. This symmetrical shape represents a four-leaf clover. It was the first opera-length necklace in the history of the brand, and a popular style for celebrities in the 1970s. As the Alhambra grew in popularity, the brand added new gemstones to the collection. Eventually, the brand developed the Mystery Setting technique, which keeps gems hidden behind a matrix of slots.

Van Cleef & Arpels has been known for its high-quality craftsmanship and creative designs. When the company was founded in 1911, Estelle Arpels was the daughter of an important precious-stone dealer. Her father Salomon Arpel influenced the brand by providing the company with the finest gems. Later on, Van Cleef & Arpels also incorporated wooden talismans and fairies into its designs.

During the early years, the brand focused on producing extravagant pieces inspired by Ancient Egyptians and geometric Art Deco designs. After World War II, the brand turned to naturalistic forms, and its designers became adept at creating jewelry pieces that are both luxurious and playful. These forms were also influenced by the cultural climate of the time, which reflected a more laid-back style. Many of the designs from the brand are now sought after by a slew of fashion-conscious clients.

Van Cleef & arpels has continued to refresh the designs of its Alhambra line for the past 50 years. Its signature motifs continue to appear in different iterations. Today, it is one of the most popular and collectable fine jewellery motifs. From its initial incarnation in the sautoir, the collection has grown to include earrings, rings, and bracelets. Most of the designs in the collection use rare and beautiful stones, and some styles sell for more than the retail price.

The brand has produced limited editions as well. Some of these limited-edition creations are priced at a minimum of $66,000. But while some of these pieces retain their investment value, most of the pieces in the brand’s inventory are resale-ready, and you can expect to get about 85 percent of the retail value when you buy.

The Alhambra pendant is a beautiful example of the brand’s refined craftsmanship and quality. The motif is crafted from 18k yellow gold and features a variety of stones, including mother-of-pearl, diamonds, onyx, and tiger’s eye. The pendant is accompanied by a zipper closure, allowing you to wear the piece as a bracelet or a necklace.

The Alhambra collection has expanded over the years to include the Sweet Alhambra and Pure Alhambra lines. These styles, which are created from different sized quatrefoils, feature a softer tone, and are more playful in appearance. Aside from these more feminine creations, there are the Vintage and Magic Alhambra lines, which are distinguished by their colorful stones and beaded edges.
