2018 - 50th ANNIVERSARY of the ALHAMBRA

[HADASSA]

I imported these posts from the "Discussion" thread to keep this thread updated.

Sa was showing me a 5 motif bracelet and 10 motif necklace in blue agate will be released this year. Photo looked nice!

Do you remember what kind gold (white/gold/rose gold) will the agate be matched with? TIA.

It's with yellow gold.

San2222, thank you for sharing this interesting bit of information VCA really needs something in blue to replace the loss of Turquoise in the Alhambra Collection.

As much as GOLD is traditionally gifted for the 50th Wedding Anniversary, I can understand why Yellow Gold was chosen to launch this stone. However, there is not much offered in White Gold at the moment, and I think it will be wise to offer both colour GOLDS with this particular stone.

How does this stone compare to chalcedony?

I have googled "Blue Agate" - seems more opaque than Chalcedony, which is a more transparent stone. Hoping for a more vibrant version of Blue Agate.

I remember one of our members hoping for this stone (@Junkenpo???), so I hope she might be able to give a more detailed description.

Beautiful, but they could have alternated with solid pink gold or even simply all GMOP.

I went this weekend and tried on the new pieces. They were STUNNING! My favorite was the pink gold and diamond pave Alhambra earclips. Photo below. I didn’t pull the trigger quite yet but I think I will be getting them to add to my wedding jewelry, coming up in September. Photos don’t do these justice!

Hi ladies,
I am a long time VCA lover, but this is the first time I have posted anything to any forum so please bear with me! Like many of you, I was primarily interested in the grey mop pieces, and did get the earrings, but I agree with Fem1014 that the WG pave and onyx combination is stunning, so much so that I chose that bracelet over the one in grey mop. Even the reverse side of the pave motif sparkles, through the openwork, and the alternating pave motifs create more opportunity to wear the bracelet than something that is all onyx. I am posting some photos in case they are helpful, but unfortunately they don’t really capture the sparkle. Also, for anyone considering the grey mop pieces, definitely ask to see multiples if possible, because there are very distinct differences in shading, shimmer, etc.
