Van Cleef & Arpels' "Alhambra" collection, distinguished by its four-leaf clover design, has been an iconic yet polemical mark in the contemporary luxury jewelry world. The inspiration behind this collection is attributed to Jacques Arpels, who was inspired by the Moorish architecture of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, as well as his four-leaf clovers collection, believing in their lucky significance.

For over five decades, the Alhambra collection has undergone extensive development, evolving into a cornerstone of Van Cleef & Arpels' aesthetic and economic identity.

Characterized by its use of semi-precious stones and precious metals, the design has become emblematic of Van Cleef & Arpels' timeless elegance and refined craftsmanship.
