Malachite is renowned for its striking concentric bands of vivid green, formed through natural mineral processes, giving each piece an individual character. Revered throughout history for its protective and healing properties, it has been worn as amulet and ornament since ancient times. The stone’s lush coloration recalls verdant woodlands and symbolizes renewal and vitality. Set in 18k gold within the iconic Alhambra motif, this design blends timeless elegance with symbolic meaning, representing luck, harmony, and feminine grace. Due to the natural variation in malachite patterns, no two pieces are exactly alike, ensuring exclusivity and authenticity.






Malachite, symbolizing ‘a happy wife,’ displays rich green and emerald luster, a noble stone with deep green hues and distinctive banded patterns of varying shades — a unique beauty unmatched by any other gemstone. Even slices from the same stone exhibit different patterns, making imitations rare and endowing it with an elegant, one-of-a-kind charm. In Europe, it is believed that wearing malachite protects the wearer from threats of death. In Van Cleef & Arpels’ Vintage Alhambra collection, the enchanting allure of malachite is captured within elegant golden four-leaf clover motifs, evoking the fragrance of grass and the freshness of morning dew, as if emerging from a lush forest — an essential for goddesses.
