THIS! High end pieces should be treated with some TLC. I don't baby my jewelry but I also don't treat them like costume pieces. If I'm spending that much on something, I'd want it to last a very long time.

Never had an issue and I wear my VCA necklaces almost everyday. I do rotate though but even if it was the same piece daily, I doubt you'd break the clasp by unclasping it once or twice a day. They're pretty sturdy.
The only clasp I was a bit iffy about is a platinum necklace I have from Tiffany's since Platinum is more prone to damage than 18K gold.
cafecreme, some unsolicited advice from an older lady who has been collecting for quite some time- agree that this HP is not for you.
We have similar coloring and I prefer the yg pieces on you. You are well represented in the pendant department for now, I would next add a VA yg MOP 10 or 20 next or a bracelet, maybe one of the perlee collection (both the signature and perles would be wonderful to start and very work appropriate and they go together perfectly). TGG once posted the pic of the two of them together and it became an instant classic on the other thread.

Yes parts can be repaired. Don’t worry. Wear it to get your money’s worth. Just don’t bash it around. I usually take off bracelets but don’t always remember to take off pendants. They’re just annoying to me. And if you wear it so much that you need to fix a clasp or redip, congratulations! You’re enjoying your jewelry.
I tried it on, it wasn’t for me. White gold does not suit my skin tone. It was the last one in the boutique and some girl came after me got it lol
i tried on a bunch of other things. And end up putting down a deposit for 6 motif guilloche bracelet and brought home a sweet Alhambra bracelet
the Frivole collection is definitely growing on me! Too bad they sold out the gold version of this bracelet.

Is it outrageous to think I need a second one as a backup?
I am thinking now that I need WG. I bought my YG last month. You think it will be nice to wear them together layered if I lengthen the WG on to 18”?
So I was thinking to get WG longer and wear them together. would like to hear opinions.
Nah, too repetitive. Get something else

I’m sorry, but yes, I think that would be a bit crazy
A pendant really should get minimal damage assuming you exercise a reasonable amount of care, so I wouldn’t spend almost $4K on two of the same pendants just to have a back up.
A no from me, too. I prefer the pendant alone, but if I had to stack, it would be a shorter small diamond solitaire.
I think the YG looks amazing on your skin tone, and the WG along with this might actually be overkill?
As much as I love this necklace, I think it would be better to use those funds elsewhere...
