Van Cleef & Arpels VCA Vintage Alhambra VA Carnelian Pendant Necklace in 18K YG

Van Cleef & Arpels VCA Vintage Alhambra VA Carnelian Pendant Necklace in 18K Yellow Gold Au750 Serial JA****78 (middle digits hidden for security purposes). I am the original owner. Length is about 16.5 inches long (roughly 14.75 inches if worn at the jump ring). Please see the second to last photo for detailed measurements. Chain length has not been altered from original purchase. Excellent condition (I find this pendant has less air gaps between the carnelian motif and beaded gold frame than some others I’ve seen. There may be minor surface scratches on the hallmark plate and lobster clasp, especially if viewed under a loupe.) Comes with certificate, outer white box, green suede/velvet box and green shopping bag (note that there are some scuffs/marks/creases on the packaging materials). Ribbon NOT included as it’s easy to lose and I’m not sure it will get packed again after the authentication stage. VCA regularly tweaks their designs a little to hinder counterfeiters. This pendant is from 2017 so it may not look 100% like the ones sold in boutiques today. Price is fairly firm due to fees.
