Are all stone pieces this light weight?

This feels like a silly question, but I've only owned the guilloche 5 motif and have never had the opportunity to shop in store to try on these pieces... I just received the 5 motif Blue Agate today and when I took it out of the packaging, I was shocked by how light it is in comparison. My first thought was this must be a fake, but that's clearly impossible lol.

Of course I know these stones must weigh less than solid gold, but are there any weighty stones offered by VCA? After years of the guilloche, I'm thinking maybe I prefer the feel of weightier pieces...

And so they say VCA stones pieces are not “worth the price”. :lol: Of course different strokes different folks. I still love that couple of VCA stones that I own.

For me, I had a hard time with Guilloche necklace due to the weight (yes only single motif!). I had neck ache after wearing for few hours. No more Guilloche for me. But of course there may be less impact if they are on the wrist.

I am curious too what stone is the heaviest at VCA. I make wild guess : TE? Not that I was out to notice the weights of the stones when I tried at store.

I also found how lightweight the bracelets felt very odd, but yep, they are very light, especially in comparison to the solid gold. I’m not sure if there is a comparison, but the guilloche feels heavier to me than the hammered, so you’re probably used to the heaviest of the vintage bracelets. Enjoy your bracelets!
