First established in 1895, there is a lot to love about the Van Cleef & Arpels brand \u2013 from the romance at the centre of the brand\u2019s establishment and history, to the intricacy of each piece and the ways in which each collection draws on the inspiration and influence of history, nature, and culture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The brand has always been synonymous with luxury and was created as a celebration of the union between two great families \u2013 both operated within the jewellery and luxury accessory industry. One specialised in stone cutting while the other specialised in precious stones, <\/span>Van Cleef & Arpels<\/span><\/a> became a way for the founders to showcase their skills and create unique and stand-out collections which continue to delight buyers today.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So, what makes the brand so special and which pieces really stand out from the crowd?<\/span><\/p>\n

Why is Van Cleef & Arpels so popular?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Van Cleef & Arpels jewellery doesn\u2019t just make a statement \u2013 it tells a story<\/a><\/span>. Every piece in every collection is uniquely designed to tap into a different thematic influence or cultural inspiration, while at the same time the founders, designers, and creators themselves found new ways of bringing jewellery to life through innovation.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the core reasons why Van Cleef & Arpels is such a popular brand in the luxury jewellery sector is that it does not shy away from colour, and it does not cut corners in an attempt to churn out quantity while lacking quality. In the 1930\u2019s the creators found a way of setting stones without the use of visible prongs; an art requiring extreme precision and only the highest quality craftsmanship from their team. Nonetheless, this became a staple of many of the pieces to come.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And we cannot talk about the popularity of the Van Cleef & Arpels brand without considering its nature as an investment. As with so many designer brands and luxury products, the demand for Van Cleef & Arpels pieces far outweighs supply \u2013 with the following collections and individual pieces garnering some of the highest demand across the brand as a whole.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Alhambra Collection<\/span><\/h3>\n

Perhaps the most well-known and highly coveted collection, the Alhambra collection is what sparked a change in the attitude of jewellery wearers and buyers \u2013 showing people that it was okay to wear luxury jewellery as part of their every day, rather than reserving it for formal occasions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
