Hello @NK321, reporting back ;)I've been quite tied up with work, hence the delayed response. Exciting news – I did end up getting the 6 motif! :yahoo: It took 2 visits for me to decide though. During the first viewing, I couldn't make up my mind and left my decision open. After two weeks, I still couldn't get it out of my mind, so I decided to try my luck again to see if the necklace was still available. A new one had just arrived (the first one I viewed was quickly snatched up when I turned it down), and it felt like fate! It reminded me of the movie "Serendipity" ! :lol: I'll share photos soon; unfortunately, I haven't had much time to fully enjoy it yet as work has been a little crazy lately.
Oooh how exciting! Enjoy your beautiful new necklace and share photos please

Congrats @hja! Yay, this necklace was meant to be for you :heart: I’m glad you walked away and took the time to think about it before purchasing, that’s when you know it’s meant to be. I think it will look amazing with your other beautiful pieces. Haha I love that movie, your note makes me feel like watching it this weekend!! I hope you will soon get a chance to enjoy the necklace, I’m in the same boat with work so I totally understand! Hopefully your pretty new addition is good motivation for working so much ☺️ Can’t wait to see pics when you have some time!! :heart:

Thank you @eternallove4bag :heart: I'm thrilled I made the decision to go for it—the 6 motif is truly a stunning piece of jewelry!

Thank you @NK321 :heart:. Yes, sometimes walking away from a purchase helps in deciding whether the piece is something that I truly want. I am trying to steer away from rewarding myself with vca pieces...so bad for my bank account! But the 6 motif was just too pretty:doh:. I have been wearing it over the weekend and surprisingly, it pairs so well even with tee shirts. Hope you managed to watch Serendipity over the weekend!
It’s so pretty! I love tigers eye!
Thank you! I love tiger eye too! Such a pretty stone:love:
Great choice, looks amazing on you!
Your style is truly inspiring, and receiving a compliment from someone with your great taste means a lot to me. Thank you!:heart:
 
Here are some photos of my 6 motifs. It is really difficult to capture the tiger eye. View attachment 5946104View attachment 5946105View attachment 5946108
Wow so beautiful @hja!! It suits you so well ❤️ I love the tigers eye iridescence too! That’s really great to hear you have been enjoying it and that it is pairing well with your outfits, I love this combo with the beige neutral shirt! Ah I totally understand about that about rewarding with VCA, I’m also trying to be better this year, let’s see! Enjoy your stunning piece ❤️🥰

Does anyone have the 6 motif in more than one option. The GMOP/MOP/onyx is my favorite necklace that I own. It goes with a lot of my wardrobe and as I have gotten older I find myself drawn to bolder, more casual pieces. I have toyed with the idea of getting it in the carnelian/TE color way to go with my non black neutral wardrobe. I already have the TE in a 20 but sometimes I do not want to fuss with a longer necklace. Would you consider this redundant? I am tempted by the posts from @A bottle of Red and @hja

Can you see yourself wearing them in different situations or will the tiger eye carnelian replace the more neutral one?

I don’t think so! Not exactly the same, but comparable; I have the magic bracelet in 4 colorways (but I only wear them as necklaces attached to a matching 5 motif or 10 motif). Four may be a little overkill, but when I only had 3 I did not think they were too repetitive at all. I think the carnelain and tigers eye 6 motif magic necklace is absolutely stunning!

My wardrobe tends to veer mostly blacks/gray/white or sometimes blue/cream/camel/olive. My kids get after me for the lack of vibrant color in my wardrobe. I thought the latter would pair with the TE/carnelian 6 motif. As much as I think I have enough Alhambra, I keep adding another piece to my wishlist.

Thanks @nicole0612 for the enabling. I am going to add this to my 2026 wishlist now since I would wear it with different clothes. I have gotten 2 pieces from my 2025 wishlist already and it is only April.
