My husband felt similarly which is one reason I went with the Frivole. For 2 flower ring, I definitely prefer the frivole if you can pull it off. It does not look right on my hand, so I went with the single flower ring.

I was lucky with that decision in terms of price increase. The orchid ring price seems to have changed little since then vs. the frivole ring went up by almost 30% with all these crazy price increases VCA had.

jenn - The medium size will be perfect for every day! It has more diamonds than the Frivole for almost similar pricing. So you can think of it as a bargain :p

Yes I have the 2 ring on order. The Cartier one didn't looks as nice and lay as nice on me. I love your single one!!!

Frivole is gorgeous! But to me it doesn't look AS "real"? No offence at all to anyone but it looks to me a bit more stylized and a little less "true to nature" and I guess I prefer the ones like cosmos or orchid or the socrates that seem to be modelled a bit more closely to nature? Either way it's pretty nice to have 4 or 5 pave diamond flowers to choose from!! You really can't go wrong!

As for size... there are three sizes in the pave pendant (not sure about the RG?) and the one I'm in love with is the medium - just perfect for me! And I cannot afford the large right now anyway! :laugh:

I agree I think the pave is the way to go. I adore the two-flower rings too but am more of a necklace person right now. If I were going ring I'd go two butterflies VCA!! THAT is ridiculously stunning!!!

I went to my Cartier and the stock was very low. They only had the ring , no pendants.
The orchids are much more delicate looking Jen, maybe that is why you like them. The 2 flower ring is a lot smaller than the frivole. That is why I like the Frivole. LOL.

I wish I got to see the pendant!!!

Oooh queenp1n I'd LOVE to see yours!!

Candice - that's what I thought too! How $8800 became "not that bad" to me is insane - LOL - but I THINK it's less than say the frivole or cosmos from VCA for example? I'm pretty sure those are circling the $12 or more mark. The large size orchid is around $16K but I think the medium is perfect for me. Definitely less than the socrates at $12,800 I think now and seems a bit bigger?

Okay I think I'm resolved to save up for the pave then!! Thanks girls! Are there any looming price increases I wonder? Hate my SA for showing me everything in the store now!! LOL...

And sorry it was so busy when you went in... it was so quiet last Wednesday when I stopped by, I was the only one in there! I know Tamara from VCA at Birks and she's wonderful - and have heard great things about Kim too. :) Hopefully next time you'll meet one of them!

I believe that the three motif Socrate necklace is currently $14,300.
