Thank you for sharing!

I just texted my sweet SA and she said this will launch in November for us in Sydney and will notify me once they’re in.


She also offered me the Holiday pendant - sooo beautiful!

Looking forward to seeing mod pics of everyone who’s getting one!!!

Did you try on the holiday pendant? Are you considering the blue agate or the guilloche when released?

No I didn’t try Nicole :smile:
I probably should keep ‘not’ trying in case I get tempted!

I actually love both agate n the guilloche from the look but I think because I already own turquoise, I should try guilloche :smile:

Are you thinking of getting either? :smile:

You are wise to avoid the temptation :)
I agree, both the agate and guilloche are beautiful. Would you consider the agate bracelet to wear with your turquoise? Of course it would depend on the shade. I probably will not purchase the guilloche because I already have plain YG and plain RG earrings and I honestly don’t wear bracelets ever. I would consider the guilloche necklace absolutely, but considering the price increase from the regular YG bracelet to the guilloche bracelet, I think the guilloche necklace will be significantly more, so I would need to love it much more than the regular YG 10 motif. I think I may be most tempted by the 10 motif blue agate, especially in a deep blue, since blues are so hard to come by these days.

I am so with you with the blue agate :)
I have never been a fans of blue jewels but when I saw your turquoise sweets I was so smitten and bought it.
I absolutely love it! I never thought cool hues like that would suit my warm yellow skin tones.

Yes I totally understand re. The price step up for the guilloche pieces - one needs to really love them as they are very similar to the YG.

I am a very minimalist (lazy mostly). I don’t wear much jewellery except my wedding ring and earrings (occasionally).
So I won’t consider agate bracelet cos I know I won’t wear it like the necklace.

I absolutely love looking at them but VCA is too expensive for just looking pleasure.

So I want to invest in pieces that I know I would wear :)

Have the prices of the guilloche been posted? Did I miss that somewhere?

Hm - is the ad/story from before the price decrease? The blue agate 10 motif is listed at $8400 in the ad. The carnelian 10 motif is currently $8150 (don't remember offhand what it was before the decrease). I was thinking they would be similarly priced, but even if not, it seems a fair amount more than I would have thought.
