Sorry CG, I couldn't even get it confirmed that it was one flower and not three or what gold it was in. News seems to be very sparse.

Hi guys! I have no idea whether this is accurate or not, but a friend of mine who is French told me that she went into the Place Vendôme store and her SA told her — definitely no turquoise for the 50th other than those watches. There “may” be lapis, but it would be alternating with diamonds if there were. That’s all I’ve got!
I wish they’d do something new like Jade...

Ohhhh nooooooo [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] I’m crying turquoise tears......
If the news are coming from Place Vendome then it should be accurate.
Thanks for the info hopingoneday.......your news from your friend is what I thought it would be. I actually was shocked to see turquoise on the "sweet" watches to be honest. I am happy they are doing the turquoise on the watches but I wish they would have introduced a piece with turquoise for the 50th that was not a watch.
i would love if they could do a black opal pendant with 1 diamond.
As an aside, it aggravates me no end that VCA will offer something so expensive for the 50th Anniversary. I'd go a long way to buy the alternating lapis and gold, but there's no way I'm going to spend the 75-80k for a 20 motif with diamonds is likely to be.

As I was thinking about this 50th anniversary item, thought came to me.
What if VCA is planning to offer vintage alhambra with alternating plain yg with pave?
The first vintage necklace was all yg.
The 50th is represented by diamonds....
LE's have traditionally had stones alternating with all yg (or pg in the case of letterwood) motifs....
It will be fun and interesting to see what they come up with although I am growing weary of the wait.

I was at the Place Vendome boutique in Paris last week and my SA had pictures of what’s coming but couldn’t show me [emoji23][emoji23] She said the watches will be released soon and then we can expect the rest around September which seems like a very long way away. She did hint that there will be Rose Gold Pave for sure. I was trying on the Sevres porcelain/YG Pave bracelet and she said if I were you I would wait, sevres porcelain will still be around in 6 months... this got me thinking that maybe it’s RG Pave/lapis is coming?
