Vintage Van Cleef & Arpels Mother of Pearl Alhambra Pendant

A beautiful vintage Van Cleef & Arpels white mother-of-pearl Alhambra pendant set in 18k yellow gold.

The pendant is set with the iconic Alhambra design and hangs from a 16.54-inch yellow-gold trace chain, secured with a lobster claw fastening. Inspired by icons of luck, the clover leaf. The design is simple and timelessly elegant, elevated by bead detailing around the shimmery mother of pearl.

Due to the design and size, this pendant would make a perfect everyday piece of jewellery. Similar models of this necklace are available in Van Cleef & Arpels stores for a retail price of £2,590.

For size reference, the pendant measures approximately 1.5 centimetres in diameter. The necklace measures 39 to 42 centimetres (with a jump ring), with a gross weight of 5.5 grams.

The piece is signed and hallmarked VCA, 750 (for 18k gold), with the serial number CL72523. Lastly, a valuation for insurance and authenticity will accompany this piece.
