🍀 Why I collected 12 Peacock Clover Pins on a black background

Over the past few days, I’ve been digging deeper into Clover Pin — studying holder distribution, checking different combinations, and talking directly with collectors.

One model really stood out to me: Peacock.

In my opinion, it’s one of the most interesting designs in the entire collection.

Visually, it strongly reminds me of the Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra aesthetic: the four-leaf clover shape, gold details, and deep green tones similar to malachite.

Alhambra is one of Van Cleef’s most recognizable designs, and the clover itself has always been associated with luck.

But what made Peacock even more interesting to me was the holder base.

🇨🇳 After looking through holders and speaking with collectors, I noticed that this model is especially popular among Chinese collectors.

That makes sense: the Alhambra-style clover is extremely recognizable in China and is strongly associated with luck, status, and luxury.

Now for the numbers.

This exact combination:

**Clover Pin
Model: Peacock
Background: Black**

has a total supply of just 60 pieces.

And a large part of that supply is already sitting with either major holders or Chinese collectors.

So I decided not to just watch from the sidelines 😁

I collected 12 Peacock Clover Pins on black.

4 rows × 3.

That means I currently hold 12 out of 60 — exactly 20% of the entire supply of this combination.

Will this thesis play out? We’ll see.

But the logic behind the position is simple:

recognizable design + connection to a real luxury motif + strong Chinese collector demand + only 60 pieces in existence.

Let’s see where this one goes 🍀
