Alhambra Design by Van Cleef and Arpels Turns 50


Each adornments house needs a mark structure: a champion that uniquely inspires the house's style codes and proceeds to be a business smash hit.

For Van Cleef and Arpels, that unquestionably would be Alhambra.

The four-leaf-cloverlike configuration went onto the scene in 1968 as the accents on a yellow-gold sautoir, the detail's amuletlike shape summoning a cutting edge exoticism. Elegance Kelly and Romy Schneider were early fans; all the more as of late, Blake Lively and Sharon Stone have worn the style. Furthermore, the structure has been reached out to studs, between-the-finger rings and bejeweled watches made with malachite, tiger's-eye, onyx and turquoise, among different stones.

To observe Alhambra's 50th commemoration, Van Cleef and Arpels has made four restricted release plans (from $6,350 to $63,500) that are to be presented Thursday at select leader stores the world over. A dark tone of mother-of-pearl, the most prominent material for Alhambra plans, has been utilized in a rose-gold suite that incorporates a jewelry, an arm jewelery, hoops and a ring.

What's more, a yellow-gold accessory and wrist trinket have been set with shake precious stone, or with a lapis lazuli and jewel blend. The two styles pay respect to the early Alhambra sautoirs: lapis lazuli had not been utilized since 1968, and shake gem's last trip was during the 1980s.

The soul of the '60s likewise is being commended, said Nicolas Bos, the house's leader and CEO. "It was where numerous things changed socially," he said. "Adornments and mold were opening up to a more extensive customer base with present day ways of life — that of the dynamic lady who was purchasing for herself, with pieces worn for delight consistently."


Also, Alhambra has had a persevering intrigue. At Collector Square, an online committal shop situated in Paris that works in extravagance adornments, watches and totes, Alhambra pieces for the most part are gobbled up inside 24 hours of posting. "We in some cases don't have sufficient energy to put them on our site since we as of now have purchasers," said Constance Lauvinerie, Collector Square's head of adornments. "We see many cautions made each day for Alhambra."

Gatherers are attracted to the plan since it is "anything but difficult to wear and easygoing — not very ostentatious or marked," she stated, and "everybody realizes the clover design."

Sautoirs, particularly 1970s pieces in hard shaded stones, are the most alluring, Ms. Lauvinerie stated, alluding to a coral structure purchased during the '70s for what could be compared to 2,000 euros that as of late sold for about €20,000 (about $24,000).

"The costs are absolutely insane," she said. "Also, with the 50th commemoration, will be much crazier."
