We recently purchased this Van Cleef & Arpels “Alhambra” Necklace. This is a great example of a trend dictating the value of an item. This is a collection that is red hot right now, so if you’re interested in selling, there couldn’t be a better time! The Alhambra collection was first introduced in 1974 and has recently seen a strong revival. The word “Alhambra” is borrowed from the Islamic palace in Granada, Spain which is known for its geometric architecture. The Alhambra “clovers” were inspired by the scalloped arches found within the palace and throughout Muslim architecture. This collection also includes rings, bracelets and earrings.
Van Cleef & Arpels is one of the top international jewelry companies, founded in 1896 in France. VCA is associated with quality and an elite style that has adorned the likes of Jacqueline Kennedy, Catherine Deneuve, Audrey Hepburn, and other timeless beauties.
