The Alhambra motif, emblem of luck, embodies a positive vision of life dear to Van Cleef & Arpels. Since its creation in 1968, this collection has been continuously evolving, introducing combinations of materials, various functionalities, and adaptations in motif sizes. This year, to celebrate Ramadan, Alhambra creations bring plays of light and color under a night sky.
In keeping with Van Cleef & Arpels’ tradition of excellence, the Alhambra collection illustrates the consummate expertise of a High Jewelry Maison. From lapidaries to jewelers, from stone-setters to polishers, each piece calls on a wide array of skills. Ornamental stone motifs are meticulously cut and polished before being carefully matched. Like the guilloché gold symbols, they glow within the precious setting of an elegant beaded mount. The motif thus melds into its golden setting, prongs folded with the utmost precision. Finally, the piece is polished one last time, to accentuate the beauty of the composition.
