Is VCA real gold?
1 Answer

Yes, VCA uses real gold. One of the world’s foremost jewelry houses, Van Cleef & Arpels is particularly noted for a focus on technical virtuosity, craftsmanship and artistry, evident since its beginning. Rather than create earrings, bracelets, necklaces and other adornments primarily for the aim of displaying wealth and opulence, Van Cleef & Arpels sought to produce jewelry in 18-karat gold, yellow gold and more that projected the wearer’s taste and style.
