I spoke to my SA in NYC/5th Ave today. She believes that VCA stopped producing the WG HP and that there probably is a small amount of unsold world-wide inventory. She said that what happens is that pieces are shipped between slow selling regions to better selling ones. Thus, it's still possible to score this piece if they are found and then shipped to your region.

I managed to grab a VCA holiday pendant! I wasn't sure if I wanted one, which is why I waited so long...white gold/silver isn't my usual preference, and I wasn't able to see this piece in store because of covid. By the time I decided I wanted to try one out and see if I liked it, they were sold out everywhere. I actually found mine from a well known reseller, but I paid slightly under retail (no idea why it was priced so low). The day after I purchased it one popped up on the VCA website, because that's how the universe works lol.

As soon as I saw it I knew I was going to keep it. Pictures and videos do not do this pendant justice. It is so sparkly and gorgeous, and I am so, so happy with it

Here it is layered with two chains (one yellow, one rose gold) from Lana jewelry. It is a show stopper!:love:

Hi TPFers! I’ve been secretly admiring VCA for several months now and was fortunate enough to score the 2020 HP online this week. It’s beautiful as everyone has said, but I’m more of a YG girl. Do you think I should keep the HP because it’s LE and save up for the YG Guilloche? This is my very first VCA piece and sadly, I don’t think it will be my last .

I know everyone on this thread LOVES the WG HP, but I didn’t like it on myself at all, and if I wanted to choose, I’d get the YG Guilloche instead. VCA WG doesn’t look good on me. Get what you will love, for a small piece of gold, it’s not worth keeping something over $3000 when you’re not sure.

Don’t keep it just because it’s LE unless you absolutely love it! You can even exchange for the YG and have some extra money in your pocket.

Strangely the YG is completely sold out but I was able to get the HP. I took that as the universe telling me I needed the WG .

Don’t let that stop you if you really want the YG. You can return the holiday pendant and have an SA track down the YG for you (with a wait if it’s sold out). On the other hand, if you want to expand your taste to include more WG and love it, then keep the pendant. But based off of the question you posed, it seems like you only want this pendant because it is scarce and LE. I’ve bought things in the past because I thought I needed to have them (but wasn’t in love) and ended up regretting it later. Hope this helps!

I would keep it and buy the YG version down the line (it's not a limited edition piece so it should be around for a while). I myself am waiting for them to re stock the YG version so I can buy it for my birthday!
P.S - I have the HP pendant too and it's too stunning to not have in your VCA collection.
