Van Cleef & Arpels Vintage Alhambra Reversible Ring

Diamond: A diamond forms through a combination of exceptional factors of temperature and pressure, deep down in the Earth’s mantle. Each gem was formed millions of years ago and bears witness to the Earth’s history. Diamonds are made of carbon and are distinctive for their hardness and light reflection properties.
Carnelian: Carnelian is a reddish-orange variety of chalcedony that has been used in jewelry since Antiquity. Collections such as Bouton d’Or® and Alhambra® feature carnelian in delicate color harmonies, set off by pink or yellow gold. The stone also adorns the Maison’s High Jewelry creations, imbuing them with a radiant vibrancy.
