2018 - 50th ANNIVERSARY of the ALHAMBRA

[etoupebirkin]

I have 10 motifs in both YG and PG. I recently tried on the Guilloche. While it is beautiful, it's not my style. BUT I have the earrings in Guilloche and LOVE those. Go figure.
I wear the Guilloche earrings with all the rest of my YG vintage Alhambra pieces.

If someone could post a pic of themSelf in a guilloche 10 motif and/or a hammered yellow gold 10 motif would so appreciate it! Like A candid everyday kind of photo of how it looks out in the world - not a trying it on in the boutique type of photo. This is hard decision to make never having tried it on myself. Tia!

Hi all,
I love VCA and really want to get a Pair of Magic Alhambra earrings. Any suggestions which one I should get?
I own A few pieces already, YG vintage Alhambra earrings, MOP 5 motif earrings, blue agate bracelet, blue sevres holiday 2019 pendent & vendome edition sevres pendent.... I really like the guilloche and was wondering if I should special order it in the magic size...then maybe also the bracelet to match.. your opinions and advice is much appreciated!

I have the Guilloche earring (vintage size) and I LOVE them!! But, I will say this, they are quite heavy (compared to the normal VCA vintage earrings... even heavier than the hammered gold version)... not sure how heavy that would be on the ear in the magic size. It would probably be so stunning, but just something to think about.

I’m not sure that guilloche in Magic would be approved. I have never seen that done. I suppose it doesn’t hurt to ask, though.

I have the YG hammered in vintage size and I’m ok with the weight tbh, I’ve also asked my SA for the Magic guilloche however I’m open to any other suggestions apart from guilloche but definitely want the magic size...would love your recommendations

Since you already have the vintage size solid gold earrings, how about getting either the small or large Frivole earrings to go with your Alhambra pieces? I think I'd prefer that over magic size guilloche. If I were doing two pair of gold earrings in Alhambra, I'd rather have the Magic classic gold and the vintage size guilloche since it is more flashy (for lack of a better word). I need gold earrings and hope to get the classic gold Magic and a pair of Frivole, eventually.

Be careful what you wish for! Guilloche is heavier than the other alhambra pieces.It would be a shame to do a SO only to find that they would be too heavy to wear. They're also very blingy and in a larger size in an earring might be overwhelming. I tried the guilloche magic pendant and some people didn't like it because it was so shiny. Another alternative, and approximately the same diameter, are the frivole earrings in the large size.

100% Guilloche in the vintage size, it's a lot more special!

I am not sure if there are any on this thread, but there might be. I chose the yg hammered bracelet because it is an iconic piece being among the first Alhambra pieces made. So if I wanted casual gold earrings, I'd go for hammered. The guilloche is a little more dressy.

I spend a lot of time searching threads for pictures of people wearing earrings in order to get an idea of size and how they look on. While that is the main purpose of the thread, please also feel free to post a shot of your VCA earring collection! To start, here is a gorgeous photo of @surfer...

Please don’t think I’m crazy although maybe I am. Is it too late to inquiry on the 5 motif Rock Crystal Alhambra? I’m crazy in love with it and cannot find any information.

I'm curious about this, too. Maybe we should start a thread on rock crystal? People can post pics of theirs and tell us when/ where they got them.

Yes!! I am all for a thread about this. I do not have the option to start one though. I just texted my SA and asked about it. I will let you know what I’m told.
