The full story

Van Cleef & Arpels' Alhambra clover is one of the strongest-holding designs in jewelry. Like the Cartier Love bracelet, it barely changes, the house raises prices regularly, and demand stays high — so used Alhambra often sells near current retail, and limited stone colors sell above it.

The size of the motif (Sweet, Vintage, Magic), the number of motifs and the stone decide most of the price. The live range below is what a typical used Vintage Alhambra piece sells for right now.

Most used Vintage Alhambra pieces sell for about $2,500–5,000. Multi-motif necklaces, rare stones and limited editions sell higher — scan yours in Cashd for a price on your exact piece.

Used (eBay listings): the Van Cleef & Arpels averaged $3,000 on Oct 4 and $2,961 on Oct 16, so prices held roughly flat (-1.3%) over 13 days of tracking. The lowest daily median was $2,938 (Oct 13) and the highest $3,608 (Oct 8).
