mishaagui, what a lovely collection and OMG, 75% off??? I would have gone ballistic!

My addiction started when I purchased a vintage VCA ring in WG with diamonds & sapphires. Next, I added on the YG 2-flower Frivole ring, followed by the Vintage Alhambra white MOP clover YG ring with diamond (same as yours mishaagui!) and my latest purchases is the new Vintage Alhambra between the finger ring in WG with Turquoise butterfly and white MOP clover.

My dream VCA purchases in order of preference (& reality???) are:

Vintage Alhambra 10 motif Turquoise necklace and bracelet (either YG or WG)

Lotus between the finger ring in WG and pave diamonds

Broderie ring in WG with diamonds and pink sapphires

Hi,

I was looking through the Tiffeny & C0 web site and came across the new line of gold key pendants.

I noticed there is a diamond and yellow gold key pendant with the clover alhambra motife shape cut out into the middle of the key pendant very much in keeping with the alhambra style of VC&A clover necklace.

I do think this pendant would be very pretty worn with the 20 motif alahmbra black or white pendant clover necklace

Oooh I agree!

I'm so excited to get my necklace...

Congrats! Please post a pix of your new necklace

Where can I find out about prices on items? I am interested in the alhambra vintage earrings & pendant in turquoise.

TIA!

There's a 1 800 number on their website - they should be able to help you! Or just call a boutique? (prices go up April 1st by the way!)

The pendant (normal sized one) in gold with MOP is about $1500 and I know the turquoise is usually quite a bit more so maybe $2K?

surfergirljen · Mar 20th, 2009, 03:45 PM

YAYAYAYAY!!! Bought and paid for today!!! :) :) :) She's going to have VCA build my little extension piece (4 inches) so I don't have them yet but purchased today:

The vintage alhambra YG MOP necklace (10 motifs)
The vintage alhambra YG MOP bracelet (5 motifs)

And I have to say, linked together they are just GORGEOUS!!! I am SO EXCITED! I'm picking them up a week Tuesday, on March 31st. YAY!!!

(ps then went and dumped off a truckload of clothing at the consignment store to help pay for them!!!)

YAYAYAYAYAY! Just knowing they are mine made me so happy!

I will be calling. But if the price is $2K I don't think I'll be getting it.
Thanks!

Thanks!!! This forum was so helpful - just to have people like you to talk it over with and ponder... I cannot believe that after 2 months of thinking about it (only 2 months... a big investment for me!) I've gone and DONE it!!! I wish I had them in my hands right now! LOL. She's going to polish them, make the extension chain (removable), put them in their pretty boxes with their certificates and everything... I can't wait. I feel like I made a really good decision and having you all to bounce ideas off of really helped!

I feel like this VCA thing might become an addiction!! LOL. Once you "break the seal"... the SA kept saying that now I was on her list and I'd be back and I was like NO! I won't! Not for a while! haha. This is a ONE TIME THING!!

(for a while at least!!!!!)
