The Van Cleef & Arpels Vintage Alhambra 5-Motif Bracelet is one of the maison’s most recognisable jewellery icons, but this combination of 18K gold Guilloché and diamond-pavé motifs takes the classic Alhambra into an entirely different league. Alternating radiant engraved gold with brilliant diamonds, it brings together two of VCA’s most coveted finishes within a single statement bracelet.
The beauty of this configuration lies in the contrast. The 18K solid gold Guilloché motifs are intricately engraved in VCA’s signature sunburst pattern, reflecting light dynamically with every movement of the wrist. Alongside them sit fully diamond-pavé Alhambra motifs, creating an exceptional interplay between the warm metallic brilliance of Guilloché and the sparkle of diamonds.
For collectors who already own the classic Mother of Pearl or single-material Alhambra pieces, this is a significant step up in both presence and craftsmanship. It remains unmistakably Alhambra, yet feels considerably more luxurious and jewellery-forward than the standard 5-Motif configurations.
Complete with its original Van Cleef & Arpels box and 2023 papers, this is also a relatively recent documented set. With boutique retail now sitting at SGD 24,000+, the offering price of SGD 18,788 represents a saving of more than SGD 5,000.

This is Alhambra at another level. Guilloché already has that incredible ability to catch and throw light without using a single stone; place it alongside fully pavé diamond motifs, and the bracelet becomes spectacular from virtually every angle. We particularly love this for the collector who already owns the classic VCA staples and is ready for something with considerably more presence.
With 2023 papers and box, and boutique replacement already at SGD 24k+, SGD 18,788 represents a substantial saving on one of the more elevated and visually striking 5-Motif configurations in the Alhambra family.
