Here is my new bracelet. I saw it briefly two months ago in the Orlando boutique and I knew it was calling my name. Many thanks to Goldfish8, Fice16 and Rockysmom for patiently answering all my questions on size and wear and tear. Also, thanks to 880 for your kind enabling.

Absolutely gorgeous ! Enjoy wearing in good health :) xx
 
OT Re bulgari sizing. are the Bulgari serpenti viper RG double ring, I bought it for my pinkie finger on 7/4/2001. It was a hot day. Recently, I was washing my hands and it slipped off, so now I wear it on my ring finger. I’m absolutely fine with that — I think I like it more— but I don’t think it’s becasue I’ve massively lost weight in the last week (I wish lol). Just an FYI in case someone wants the same ring. It’s the one with pave head and tail. The Bulgari serpenti tubogas bracelet IRL doesn‘t look as massive as the left pic btw. Both are my left hand.

I always worry about that sort of thing when I buy rings. if I’m in a store that has the AC cranked up, my finger goes down in size. i’m glad you’re content wearing it on your ring finger. It such a beautiful ring and looks amazing with the bracelet.
 
Have been eyeing this piece from 2016 .. ugh. I was certain to pull the plug in white gold but the SA suggested to try in yellow and rose gold. Now, I don’t know which one I want - kinda leaning towards rose gold ( was never a fan before)

I am also thinking about the RG. It seems to mix so well with WG with just a gentle pop. However, I wonder if mixing RG and WG is the popular current look and that is why it is so visually appealing now. WG may be the safer choice long term. Do you have a photo comparing the WG and RG with your usual stack? I am guessing the RG looks beautiful! I am trying to remember if your perlee diamond clover is in WG or YG/PG; I think that would influence my advice.

I jus recently got this bracelet in the white gold pave diamond version and it was my dream piece for almost 1,5 years. So here goes my theory/opinion: I am also a big lover of yellow and a little less of rose gold because it pops a little less/fades too much on my skin tone (I have mostly yellow gold as I like the contrast with my skin tone, then white gold with diamonds because without diamonds it reminds me too much of silver and third place rose gold) , but I think white gold goes best with (pave) diamonds because the white gold blends in almost seamlessly with the diamonds and therefore makes them sparkle more in my head LOL. I also read on other subjects on TPF that alot of people prefer the combo white gold with diamonds because of this reason.

If white gold is really not an option for you anymore then I think rose gold goes better together with pave diamonds than yellow gold.The real beauty of yellow gold jewellery pieces shines more (just my opinion) when it is plain on its own or in a VCA alhambra style setting with a nice stone like mop, onyx, malachite etc.

Believe me I gave this subject aloooot of thought LOL as I contemplate very well before buying any jewellery piece. But you can’t really go wrong with this stunning serpenti piece so you have to see what catches your eye the most in the end. Good luck with choosing your perfect piece!! ❤️

Thank you Nicole!
I don’t have the pic side by side but here is the one I took a while back. At that time I was certain about white gold lol
