Van Cleef & Arpels “Alhambra” Necklace

Bebe Bakhshi — Wed, 06 Jun 2012 09:25:00 +0000

Hey Jewelristas,

I always appreciate the precision and craftsmanship in Van Cleef & Arpels

pieces and my favorite collection is “Alhambra” which was launched

back in 1968 and since then is a trending and sensational style.

The “Alhambra” collection has different subcategories such as

Vintage, Lucky, Byzantine, Alhambra and Magic.

#Fact: H.S.H Princess Grace of Monaco was a big fan of Alhambra necklaces.

My obsession is the Vintage with Turquoise.

Take a look at photos and enjoy!
