The Van Cleef & Arpels Vintage Alhambra 5-Motif Bracelet in white mother of pearl is an enduring symbol of elegance, luck and timeless French jewellery craftsmanship. First introduced in 1968, the Alhambra collection draws inspiration from the four-leaf clover, a motif traditionally associated with good fortune. Crafted in 18K solid gold, this iconic bracelet features five luminous white mother-of-pearl motifs framed by the maison's signature beaded gold borders, creating a harmonious balance of delicate iridescence and refined sophistication.
What makes this particular Vintage Alhambra bracelet especially desirable is its timeless five-motif configuration, one of Van Cleef & Arpels' most recognisable jewellery designs. Each mother-of-pearl motif displays its own natural variations in colour, lustre and iridescence, ensuring that no two bracelets are visually identical. The interplay between luminous white mother of pearl and polished gold gives the bracelet remarkable versatility, making it equally suited to everyday elegance and formal occasions. Accompanied by its original VCA box and 2023 certificate, this example offers additional reassurance and collector appeal.
WLCSG Curator Note: We particularly appreciate the effortless elegance of the Vintage Alhambra in white mother of pearl, a combination that has remained a favourite among Van Cleef & Arpels enthusiasts for generations. The five delicate clover motifs create a beautifully balanced silhouette, while the natural iridescence of mother of pearl introduces subtle individuality to every piece. With its accompanying 2023 certificate and VCA box, this bracelet is a lovely choice for collectors seeking a classic Alhambra creation or a meaningful luxury gift. At SGD6,188, it represents an opportunity to acquire one of the maison's most celebrated fine jewellery designs.
