This Ramadan, Van Cleef & Arpels pays homage to its rich heritage and the spirit of the season with an exclusive celebration of the iconic Alhambra collection. Since its inception in 1968, the Alhambra motif has symbolized harmony and luck, brought to life through the Maison’s mastery of fine craftsmanship and gemstones.
A New Ramadan 2025 Exclusive
This year, the collection welcomes a refined addition: the 20-motif Vintage Alhambra long necklace, an exclusive design for the Middle East. Crafted from radiant blue agate and warm guilloché yellow gold, this creation showcases the Maison’s dedication to blending materials seamlessly while maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship.
Among the newly introduced pieces is the exquisite Sweet Alhambra watch, which pairs guilloché yellow gold with blue agate, enhanced by a Swiss quartz movement that guarantees precision and elegance.
An Artistic Collaboration Inspired by Ramadan
To mark the occasion, Van Cleef & Arpels has collaborated with the Franco-Turkish animation duo Burcu and Geoffrey. This visionary pair, blending expertise in illustration and 3D animation, has crafted a poetic campaign inspired by the celestial beauty of Ramadan. Their mesmerizing artwork intertwines natural elements with the Alhambra motif, creating a dreamlike aesthetic that elevates the collection’s artistic expression.
The Vintage Alhambra Reversible Ring: A Fusion of Elegance and Innovation
As part of its 360-degree campaign, Van Cleef & Arpels also highlights the Vintage Alhambra reversible ring, introduced in 2024. This double-sided masterpiece showcases a refined mix of guilloché yellow gold, a central diamond, and luminous blue agate, embodying the Maison’s commitment to innovation and artistic excellence.
