Some time in July...it is rumoured

Fingers crossed9 I wonder how much the bracelets are

I love that blue! Is it coming to all the boutiques or only certain ones? Is it as limited as lapis? Thanks!

Hello

Heard from my SA in Europe that it will be available at certain boutiques in July. She didn't say if it's LE or not.

Thanks love [emoji8]! I’ll call Selfridges in London, see if they are getting it.

I didn’t ask what the pieces are. But she did mention that quantity of the BA is “very limited”. She said it will hit the US in October.

Maybe the initial demand will be so great that it will outstrip supply.

VCA has been starved for years for a lovely blue in the Alhambra Collection, since Turquoise and Lapis have been so scarce.

The blue agate is launching in South of France and it is a permanent addition. It is said to be lighter than lapis and blue porcelain. Available in November. Sounds like if it is something that you want it should be available throughout

Thank you for putting us out of our misery [emoji257]
My suspicions were correct - it does form part of the permanent collection.

Can we please start a new thread for this gorgeous blue agate collection? I want to know everything there is to know about this stone....I can't wait!

I am trying to redirect these posts to the “50th Anniversary” thread since these new stones are being launched for this event - whether they are LE or remain part of the permanent collection.

You look amazing! With the pave diamonds, do you think we can wear it for night function? Hmm ... I can’t seem to bring out the blue in the lapis.

BTW, is it normal for there to be clouds (not gold flecks pyrite) within the lapis?

Please take as many pics as you can and try to capture any STRIATIONS in the stone. Thank you

I’m beginning to worry that this stone (or at least the VCA standard) is without striations.
