black onyx:

or pearl:

I love them both but if I had to choose I would take the pearl one.

I have the mother pearl necklace and bracelet. I love them! It is very versatile and eye catching! I always have people asking me about the pieces. I do like the onyx but in the white gold (the more modern setting.) The black mother of pearl is also pretty! I guess I like all of them. LOL

Pearl

pazt · Feb 5th, 2007, 10:17 AM

i love both!

Sappho · Feb 5th, 2007, 11:12 AM

Pearl!!

winternight · Feb 5th, 2007, 11:14 AM

Both are very nice- I tried them both on though and I thought the pearl was more flattering - the onyx was a bit harsh IMO.

Lainey: How did you like the black onyx with the white gold? I was deciding between mother of pearl with white gold or black onyx with white gold? Please give me your thoughts..thanx :)

I like the shine on the pearl.

I love the pearle! Just gorgeous!!

IntlSet · Feb 6th, 2007, 03:15 PM

I LOVE them. Does anyone know the cost?

mello_yello_jen · Feb 6th, 2007, 03:37 PM

oh! they are bothhhh gorgeous but i would go for the pearl. white+gold is my favorite combo!

Greentea · Feb 7th, 2007, 10:10 PM

I adore this necklace (and most things VCA)
I think the Pearl one is more elegant!

mangowife · Feb 7th, 2007, 11:38 PM

I think the different 'shades' of the mother of pearl are just GORGEOUS!

I also wonder what retail is on this... I would LOVE some silver alhambra hoop earrings (I think I saw Heidi Klum wearing a pair on Proj Runway)

Isnt Van Cleef really really expensive? The pearl is nicer. Onyx is not v precious
